? for ladies during ttc stage

minimuffin918

so, i know it is a game of luck, a game of chance and hope most of the time...and there are so many different "tricks" we read, hear from our drs...even ones we may make up.

but, how many of you do the deed every single day during your fertile stage?

or every other day?

this cycle, we are doing it every day.  bc it was worked plenty in the past.  i've lost them all but it has worked 3 out of the 5 times. 

wishing you all a happy tuesday night and lots of luck

DH and I do a mixture. Normally it's 2 days in a row, then skip a day, then another 2 days in a row.

GL!

**DS mentioned**

 When we get pg with DS, we had done it ED.  Since the m/c, we've tried ED, EOD and now we're going to attempt when sperm meets egg plan.

Edit -tried to make clicky, but apparently I don't know how.  Sorry!

I honestly never even thought about it until joining this board. So i'm not really sure what we'll do. Right now it's just kind of whenever we get the urge lol. But I was only off birth control for 2 months when I got pg. And we weren't keeping track of my fertile days. We looked at it as just letting it happen when it happens. We are thinking we may do the same this time, too.

We have spent cycles going every day then every other day. Now I'm tired and we go a few times a week.

Similar situation here. I've never been on birth control, but when DH and I decided to give TTC a shot, I got pregnant right away which resulted in a molar pregnancy. I wasn't charting, temping, checking CM, or using OPKs. It was a total fluke.

This cycle was our first TTC again after being cleared from my molar pregnancy, and I'm on 12 DPO (I started charting, checking CM, and using OPKs) and I've been getting BFNs since 8 DPO. We're going to try the SMEP next month, I think.

With my first pregnancy we only had sex once during the window. With my second it was an every day thing for about 4-5 days but hit all the important days. This cycle we went 8 days in a row and got all the good days except day after O which I wasn't worried about. Who knows if it worked!

We usually do it every day around O time.  Thing is, we always wimp out by the first day after O.  Not sure if that's a big deal or not considering it's on the day of my temp rise and most say it's usually too late to conceive by then.  

I think that if you do it as much as possible around the time of O, it's all you can do.  The only thing that is good about eod is if there are swimmer issues.

DH has low count so we do EOD sometimes every 2 days.

When I got pregnant last oct. We did it twice around my fertile time and it worked. With my DDs I don't remember much because I wasn't charting but I think we did it every other day. This time around (first cycle ttc since loss) we are doing it everyday during my fertile window A.) To hopefully better our chances and B.) Because I want it all.the.time!
