How Much is Too Much

i no you're supposed to bd every second day when TTC. But can it hurt to bd every day?? Sorry if TMI. I didnt think i'd get to try this month but my fiance got ten days off unexpectedly so he'll be home (luckily) around the right time of the month for us to try

I did it everyday when I got pregnant, Joy is right either way should be ok b/c sperm can live for up to 72 hours, but usually 48 hours.
I would recommend pre-seed, I think we all know that sex everyday can be uncomfortable and using a lube can help. Pre-seed is lube that does not kill sperm.
Good Luck!!

You can do it either way! It honestly won't matter because if you have EWCM sperm will live for days.

I've heard that you can bd every day unless your man has reproductive issues (I forget if the issue was low sperm count or low sperm motility). But if not, I would say go for it.

Well I once heard on some educational type discovery channel sort of show, that all the men's sperm present in the body was produced the previous month, so it doesn't matter.. but i've also heard what illsurvive said as well... but when i got pregnant, we were doing it almost every day for months...

good luck!

my doctor had told me bd every day!  LOL  it takes 24 hours for a full sperm count to build up!  Maybe a few less, but it doesn't hurt!  All that much more sperm up there to make way to the egg!!
