my path is going to be filled with love, laughter, and a bit of my own special spice! so brace yourself and consider yourself warned.
today i am looking for guidance on the creation of playlists for the actual insemination.
while i recognize that the actual insemination lasts only about a minute (insert inappropriate "well my husband..." joke here), i have decided to create two playlists for when i wait, during, and after the insemination while in the exam room. will this be vetoed but the nurses? i will let you know but i am going to assume that i am green light!
why would you create two playlists kate? great question.
my fertility clinic has me come in two days back to back for the actual insemination. (more details to follow on the actual timeline of things) so, two days means two playlists. of course.
my plan is to have "sexy time" music for day one and more "motivational" music for day two. and, umm, yeah that is motivational for the sperm.
what is on the list already? currently the lists are pretty small as i can't seem to remember the great options we came up with on the babymoon. i look to all of you to make your suggestions and help me build the proper playlist. so far....
"sexy time"
- marvin gaye's "let's get it on" (my personal favorite)
- bread's "i want to make it with you" (rec'd by carol)
motivational
- eye of the tiger (hello my motivational theme song!)
- chariots of fire (babymoon add)
so please leave a comment with any possible recommendations....
well MY motivational music selection always includes some Florence & The Machine. Possible choices:
ReplyDeleteThe Dog Days Are Over (girl, you have NO idea how true that statement is)
You've Got The Love
Cosmic Love
Kiss With A Fist (kidding on this one)
Oddly enough, when you Google "fertility playlist", a lot pops up. Here are the ones that made me smile:
"Gonna Make You Sweat" by C&C Music Factory
"Learned To Surf" by Superchunk. Holy appropriate song title
"Enjoy the Ride" by Morcheeba. Even better? Album title is "Dive Deep". :)
"Hallelujiah" by Jeff Buckley
"Haven't Met You Yet" by Michael Buble'
"What I am" by will.i.am and the Sesame Street monsters
That's a lot -- maybe you can add some to your "Two week wait" playlist. Cuz you know you're going to need one of those, right?

so i got some rec's via email and wanted to share them here... anonymously of course!
ReplyDelete- song suggestion for list A - Color my world by Chicago. I don't know if it's the singer's voice or just the melodious tune, but I find that song very sexy.
- ok so check out "all you need is love" for insemination day 2 here:

For the "sexy time" list, I recommend "Adorn" by Miguel.
