Me and my partner DTD everyday we always have, apart from the odd day that maybe he works late or one of us is ill (which rarely happens)
Some of my friends think its great others think its weird but its just the way we like it

We bd everyday, always have. The longest is usually a day in between. I LOVE bd so it's okay with me.

Thanks for all your replies ladies.

I seriously admire those of you who do it every day or even twice a day, your partners are champions! As I get very frequent UTIs doing it everyday would cause me serious problems, and a huge amount of pain.

I'd love some of the energy some of you have, probably just me getting old and having a very hectic life!

I used to get uti's often, but since coming off the pill it seems to have gone away. Fingers crossed.
They aren't nice.

Usually we DTD about twice-three times a week. We are NTNP at the moment, so just do it when ever we fancy it, but once we start TTC we will try to do it every other day. Although im sure that will be difficult with work etc...

Wow some of you girls are machines! I just don't have the energy for DTD all the time. We're averaging about 7 or 8 times a month at the moment, mostly around the fertile window.

I suffer from Ankylosing Spondylitis which, when it flares up, absolutely knocks me for six, so this cycle in particular, I'm coming home from work and going straight to sleep for a few hours so OH and I really only get the chance on weekends or if i force myself to stay awake. OH has never been one for pestering me and to be honest, he's more of the NTNP mindset whereas I am more actively TTC.

On another note, one of the ladies on here posted about going to the loo straight after DTD to avoid UTI's. I always thought that going to the loo straight after would flush out majority of the sperm? I remember reading it in a magazine when I was younger as an extra preventative against getting PG so I always avoid doing it these days whereas when I was younger I used to be straight to the loo!

sperm will start off straight away as its released...so even if you get up and dance arounf...you can still fall pregnant! when you get it leaking out its usually dead sperm and the fluid... most of it will get off to where needed!

drinking yogurt mixed with water/milk is amazing it cleans out the UTI it works for me

Same thing happened with me and the pill. I got uti's often and once I got off.. POOF nothing.

We are using CBFM so we DTD every second day from when I get a high then on both the peak days & the day after the peaks! Rest of the month we just dtd when we feel like it.....hubby works long hours in a stessful job so somedays hes just too tired!
Feeling very positive this month!

 

[Luv_My_Bichon]

im nearly 26 and we have been together nearly 10 years, the longer you been together the more you have to spice it up xx

That's very true. My DH and I have been together for 14years this year and I can remember when we first got together it was like ALL THE TIME!! Lol, but then it does taper off. Since TTC we are trying to DTD every other day leading up to OV so my hubby's in his element! lol - he so ain't used to it this much

According to my ticker, I'm on one of my most fertile days so even though we DTD last night, we'll be tonight for sure. Come on catch that egg!!

to everyone x

Me and my partner bd every day not just cause of trying for a baby but just cause we both have a very high sex drive haha
If something goes wrong as in ill or to hot or ect then every other day!
I know it sounds stupid but like I dont believe people forcing them self to just have sex everyday for a baby, I mean dont get me wrong of cause you have to have regular sex atleast 3 times a week so you dont miss ovulation but sperm can live for around 72hours! I think if you force yourself or partner and think oh gotta bd tonight cause trying for a baby, its not going to be as enjoyable or exciting it just becomes a chore!! You dont need to bd everysingle day (unless want to) to get preggy just remember sperm can live quite along time so dont feel guilty or your just gunna get yourself even more stressed and upset hunnie! x
