Hi, we've worked up the courage to start trying for a baby again after our 2nd miscarriage in April. I'll be ovulating in less than 2wks time and was wanting to know what advice you've been given on how often you should do the bd to increase chances of healthy pregnancy? I've heard that every 2 days means healthier stronger sperm but have also heard every day increases your chances?

well when we were TTC, we BD'd about every 2 days, sometimes every day:D, from about a week before my predicted O till a week after, apart from when I fell preg with DD, we didnt' BD much that mth, maybe only 3 times, it was enough to catch the egg anyways

everyone is different though, from memory its adviced to BD every second day

good luck with everything

:iagree::iagree:
As my OB said 'quality is better than quantity'. TTC can be mentally exhausting and the last thing you want is to add being physically exhausted to the mix.

Good luck

We were told that every second day is what is usually advised as it allows enough time for the sperm count to get back up though for a healthy sperm count once a day is fine, but if you dont know your partners sperm count every second day is probably better.
Good luck
