My OB suggested the following: buy an ovulation kit and find out what day of each cycle you're most fertile. Have sex every other day or so throughout the month, but when you hit your fertile time, do it every day for a few days. This way you cover all your bases since sperm can take up to three days to make their way up to fertilize the egg.
We tried getting pregnant for almost a year, and the first month we tried this method, we conceived!

Studies that I've read say that couples who have sex every day have a 25% chance of conceiving every month. If you only have sec every other day, you have a 22% chance of conceiving in a month.
So I guess it matters how much that 3% means to you.
Good luck!!!! =)

Well normally women who are trying to concieve only have sex around there fertile period...Personally me and hubby are going everyday...Others say every other day..But truelly it is up to you but i think a norm would be about 3 times a week...I'm sorry can't help you anymore but it's kinda hard to pinpoint when you ovulate and all that jazz...Goodluck :)

At least every other day, that way you won't miss your fertile period. You can have sex more often, unless you know that your husband has a low sperm count or similar problem. Assuming his sperm count is normal, the more often you have sex the higher your chances of getting pregnant.

I have heard that you should have sex every 3 days to keep a good supply of sperm avialable , then I have heard every other day. But to be safe why not everyday , hell atleast you would have your bases covered ! :)

Start about ten days after your period and do it every day for ten days. Mid-way between your periods is when you are ovulating. It only takes one 'injection' on the right day, so don't miss a day. You wouldn't believe how many babies are born from one 'injection.'

you don't have to have sex a certain amount of times per weeks to get pregnant. you just have to have sex on the days that you are ovulating. buy an ovulation monitor so you are not wasting your time by guessing.

you should have sex every other day as it helps to increase the sperm count.also before sex but something cold on his balls as it helps increase movement in the sperm
