sex question :)

Hi!

Well, hubbie and I have been trying (not very hard, I might add...) for 3 months now and next week will be our time to try this month!! I'm very excited, but sort of getting frustrated also. Anyway, I have a question about sex. What are your thoughts about how often to have sex. I've heard it should be every other day around the time of ovulation, but I've also heard every day. What has everyone else heard?

Good luck to all of you!

Thanks,

Cortney

I've heard the same thing about every other day quite often and I think that's for the men with lower sperm counts. I guess it gives them time to make more or something?? Dh and I have sex everyday normally... and I'm beginning to wonder if that will work against us? We conceived very quickly on our first, and he's young (22), so there's no reason to think he has a lower sperm count. It just seems weird to me for us to stop having as much sex so we can conceive??

I hear you there! Last month was our first time trying. My husband said all the bd'ing seem like a job. Now this month I was trying to do it every other day. But he skipped out on me last night. Knowing my luck that was the day, who knows. I told him it was a job, but I was making it interesting at least. I get so confused !!!!!!!!
