Can bedding to much kill sperm?
I have heard if you bed twice in one day the second set of sperm can kill the first set making it harder for you to conceive, is this true? My partner and i bedded this morning and i have no doubt he'll want it again tonight, today is also my ovulation day so i am now officially in the 2WW yeah!!! But if we do it tonight can it affect my chance of becoming pregnant? All help is really appreciated!!!
Thanks very much for answering my question means we can go at it all weekend if need be lol, his sex drive seems to have risen lately so i'm taking advantage thanks again everyone
Thanks for the imput. Good question as my boyfriend is an everyday and alteast 2x a day. So thats one less thing for me to worry about.
Actually, the theory behind it is that sperm kills other sperm from competing males to ensure that the first male's genes get to the egg first. However that is an anthopological theory of evolution not a medical fact.
Fact is that the vagina secretes a more acidic or more alkaline discharge depending on the time of the month that depending if you are ovulating it will be more friendly environment or hostile environment for sperm. Obviously a more friendly environment during ovulation and more hostile environment when she's not ovulating. This also ensures that the healthiest sperm will meet the egg at the most ripe time for fertilization.
In other words, you have nothing to worry about. I think the more sperm the better. I actually got pregnant bd at night and first thing in the morning when I was ovulating.

no I don't think it does. because if it were that case then all sperm would be attacking each other to get to the egg. There wont be as much sperm the next time you have sex tho, cause it does take alittle while for it to build up again.
sperm can live up to 5 days in side you.They move at different pase. so when my husband and I were trying to get pregnant. we'd have sex every other day and I got pregnant right away.
Best of luck to you though I hope you get your BFP sending lots of baby dust your way.

i don't know for definite...but i highly doubt that it's true. for one, with the baby i did plan my partner and i were at it like rabbits, several times a day every day. think it was 2 or 3 months before i conceived so no, i think it's rubbish.
