Every Day? Every Other Day? Posted: 10-19-04 13:07pm
I have heard much contradictory opinion on
how much I should be having sex while
trying to conceive. Some friends insist
that every other day is better, while my
doctor and husband both say every day
during those "magical" five days makes
more sense. My doctor, while she has
heard about the every other day theory,
feels more sperm swimming toward that egg
is better...Even if the sperm count lowers
slightly, we are still sending more into
the area than if we waited every other
day. I think my husband just likes having
a bunch of sex!
I'd be really interested to hear some
informed opinion of people who have read
up on this or whose doctors have given
them some information.
Thanks.

My husband and I did it every day during
my fertile time. Opposed to only doing
it once on my ovulation day which we we're
doing the previous months before. Only
because we we're on vacation visiting the
family and he was away with the military.
The first month we had to have sex every
day we did and I got pregnant. I also
put a pillow under my hips to raise them.
That worked with my last pregnancy and
this one. I say every day. It makes
mor sense to me.
Best of luck to you

The only situation where every day would
be a problem is if your husband had a low
sperm count. If his count is
normal.......Have fun!!
