I usd ovulation calendars to chart my ovulation, I had a blighted ovum in november, d&c in december and get my period on the 3rd thru 8th. My ovulation/fertility window is from the 15th to the 24th ovulation on the 20th. So far me and my SO have done it on the 12th, 13th and the 14th. I wanna try to do it everyday til two days after my ovulation is over. Is this too much. Is all of that really necessary. I really wanna get pregnant this cycle. Any tips to help out would be gladly appreciated. Thanks ladies in advance

Its better to do it every other day so as to not deplete and make his men slower. They need time to reguveante otherwise they won't be at their full capacity. Gl.

Ur doctor didnt tell u to wait a few weeks after ur d& c? I had one almost 5 or so yrs ago, and my doctor told me not to get preg till 9 weeks after. Its to give ur body time to heal. I waited and got preg the month we started trying. I agree with the every other day bding. Also, i wouldnt.go.by the o apps. They go by a typical cycle with o on cd14. Its best to use opks. They help determine ur two best days to concieve. Id also follow that with temping, if u dont get ur bfp this.cycle. That way u can confirm if and when u od. G luck

I've heard every other day, but my dr. told dh and I to have sex 2x a day from cd 10-cd20! We haven't really stuck to it. Dh started a new job and is really worn out when he gets home he's pulling 19-20 hour days.

Anyway I don't think its too much Good luck

As long as SO doesn't have any sperm count issues, daily is good (I wouldn't go more than that, though). I there are sperm count issues, switch to every other day.

The only other thing to consider is if the sex starts to feel a little forced, like "we have to because we're trying to get pregnant," especially if the guys feels that way. When it starts to feel like that, take a night off. I read once that it can actually affect your ability to conceive if your partner just "not into it" that night (maybe it affects sperm count or quality for that one time?). Anyway, good luck and baby dust!
