We started trying for baby this month and im confused about the frequency. Matlab kitne din ya kab around ovulation gives best chance? Bit awkward to ask but pls share what helped u.
Trying every alternate day during your most fertile week is the standard advice. It keeps the sperm count healthy and increases your chances beautifully.
I used to panic thinking we had to do it multiple times a day on the exact ovulation date! But later my doctor reassured me that sperm can live inside for up to 5 days, so every other day around the middle of your cycle is perfect. Once I understood that, the pressure was off!
As someone who now has a beautiful baby to breastfeed, I remember how clinical and tiring the planning phase felt. My experience is that having intercourse every alternate day from Day 10 to Day 18 of your cycle is the best window. It gives the sperm time to regenerate and keeps things less exhausting.
I used to track my ovulation calendar like a crazy person back then! Honestly, looking back, doing it every 2 or 3 days around your estimated fertile window is more than enough. Don't make it feel like a chore, just relax and let your body handle the rest.
When we went to the clinic, our doctor clearly told us that having intercourse every single day isn't necessary and can actually reduce sperm quality. She advised having sex every alternate day during my 6-day fertile window. This was a much more practical and stress-free advice for us.
