I was at a family reunion this weekend and I recieved alot of advice (wanted and unwanted) on how to concieve #3. I have researched alot on fertility and conception but there seems to be some conflicting information on Bd-ing every day or every other day. I know hubby has a good sperm count so that is not a concern. My aunt said every other day because it takes that amount of time to properly build the man's "resources" back up. I was curious to hear other women's opinions on this, especially what worked for you.

Every other day and then every day at ovulation time.

That advice in my opinion is sound - that's what helped me conceive #2 and #3. With each, I tried the ovulation monitors, timing it, temperature, etc. - nothing. Then after 3 months with #2 and 5 months with #3, I had sex every other day for my cycle - and got pregnant.
I think it not only hits your 48-72 hour fertile time, but it does give the guy a chance to build back up a really good supply. All I can say is that's the only 'method' that worked for me. Good luck! :)

Try to conceive 10 to 14 days after your period have sex every 2- 3 days to help sperm count go up and start taking prenatal pills to help with the process. Make sure you hubby wears lose undies and keep them cool.

With baby #1 we split the difference; starting 5 days before ovulation we did it every 36 hours :-)
We conceived baby #1 the day of ovulation (about 12 hours before ovulation).

I asked a doctor this question and he said that if sperm count is a problem, every other day is better. If sperm count is not a problem (which it isn't in your case) then every day is fine. Good luck with #3!

I've also heard once every other day. Make sure your husband isn't using a laptop - the heat kills sperm.

Every other day day my period was over and every day during my ovulation.

Seeing and talking to my doctor is what worked for me
