That’s way too much. Doing it too often you make the swimmers poor quality so they’re not strong enough. Use ovulation tests and try and only do it on ovulation day
The first thing you want to do is get a period tracking app which also tells you your fertile days. During your fertile days have fun and stop having sex so often every 3 days, it’s probably lowering his sperm count and you could actually be missing the days you ovulate. Next, stop thinking about sex as only for getting pregnant and start enjoying it again instead of it being a preplanned chore type activity. You’ll also have to start focusing on your own ‘finish’. Having orgasms yourself makes it much more likely for sperm to reach your egg because you’ll be producing more of your own lubricant which allow those little swimmers to get up there. If you still aren’t getting pregnant invest in ovulation testing strips and use them whenever your tracking app says you’re in the fertile window. My partner and I did all of these things except the ovulation strips and I got pregnant the very next month.
I was always told every other day is best
Have sex during ovulation time. Try every other day maybe just once or twice a day. Also get his sperm checked and yourself checked to make sure everything is working correctly. Good luck!
How long have you been trying. A doctor could help with this
if it’s been over a year i’d start out with both of you seeing a doctor, have your ovaries looked at, his sperm tested, i was trying to concerive and found out i have PCOS, was told i’d never conceive naturally and here i am a year later with a 3 month old, we had sex every other day during my fertile window, and i tracked my cycles religiously, i took prenatal but that’s it.
5-6 times a day is too much
Every other day is better to help with sperm count. Don’t stress.
Take ovulation tests to see when you’re most fertile? Also put a tampon in after sex so none them babies escape
I stopped trying ended up with two under two
I downloaded an app called flow to track my period and also ovulation and started prenatals then kind of “stopped” trying and finally conceived.
I used acupuncture. It works. Having sex that often weakens his sperm. Try every other day.
5-6 times A DAY?! Wayy to much
You can only conceive during ovulation which happens around day 14 or 15 of your cycle. You need to start counting your cycle from day 1 of your period. Having that much sex can decrease your chances. No need to try until ovulation.
5-6 times a day? Do you guys work lmao. Jesus!
Eat lots of pineapple
Try buying an ovulation kit. I use Premom the app and got 50 tests from Amazon for 13$ it tells me exactly when I’m ovulating and when to try.
Every other day. You want quality lol
You should be sure to keep track of your ovulation on a calendar (I recommend using the Flo app, it was really accurate for us), and you should try to to…ahem…”procreate” lol…once a day two days before your scheduled peak ovulation, on your peak ovulation day, and two days after. Additionally, and this may be TMI, but afterward, try to lay flat on your back with your hips elevated and legs up against a wall (I don’t know if this is scientific, but might be helpful too). This should hopefully up your chances of conceiving! I also agree that you should continue taking prenatal vitamins with high levels of folic acid.
I mean, if you’re anything like me, just decide that you’re not going to get pregnant, that you don’t even Want a kid and then BAM you’ll get pregnant.
This is going to sound crazy but if u drink lemon half a lemon Morning and nite it’s gets out all the acid in your body and helps u to fall I had a lot of trouble then tried this the following month I was pregnant
Have him eat tuna banana and orange juice alot!
Get a basal thermometer, track your ovulation days. Stop having sex so much and make sure his underwear isn’t real tight. Unless you can get him to use ice packs cooler testicles produce better
Before sex take your finger and wipe the opening of your cervix. Sometimes there’s mucks keeping the sperm out
My advice quit trying you are stressing out too much my partner and I weren’t even trying when we got pregnant it was kind of a surprise to us
Flow is a great app. Track your cycle and have sex once a day during your peak fertility period. Also testing for ovulation helped us to really pin point those peak days. Fertility teas are great they have for her and him. A lot of people swear by Basel body temperature, we were pregnant before I had a chance to add that to the routine. Good luck !
Stop trying. If you’re stressing about it it won’t happen.
Sperm quality decreases the more often you do it. As someone whos been to a fertility dr, once or twice every 2 days is enough. If youve been trying for over a year its time to see a fertility specialist for help.
The One A Day partners fertility vitamins pack!
Track your cycle, so you can get a good idea when you ovulate, and don’t over do the sexy time lol 5-6 times is probably over kill. Also just do it, don’t think about getting pregnant, once you stop focusing on it, it’ll happen, so don’t stress cause stress will hinder the process honestly.
It happens when you stop trying. Sounds crazy, but it works haha.
…as hard as this is to hear, just stop “trying “ and start over. Just relax. Let your body relax and enjoy it. When you stop “trying” it will happen naturally. Your body knows when your stressed. And your mind knows when you’re over thinking it.
Also, his body needs time to “recharge.” I have been told by MDs that every 24 hours is best.
Try 1 time evey 2-3 days i just have 1 time and booomm pregnant
Stop trying to be intimate to make a baby an just enjoy each other… Url both probably putting pressure on each other wit out knowing it
5 or 6 times a day? Are you rabbits or something??
Less sex is better once or 2x a day. Make sure you are fully off your birth control like 2-4weeks of not taking it & ovulation test it you can. Prenatals are great but won’t actually help you get pregnant. Also if you take vitamin c or consume alot of food that contains vitamin c stop. That can make your uterus uninhabitable.
Don’t try so hard. Just love eachother. It will happen.
Ovia fertility app… I love this app. It gives you a bunch of tips… When me and my SO were TTC. It took us 3 months with this app. For me that was saying something due to health issues I can have difficulty getting pregnant.
Take prenatal vitamins
After sex, stay in bed and hold your hips and legs up for a few minutes. Allow gravity to help the process naturally.
Ovulation test strips
How long have you been trying? Honestly my fiance and I humped like rabbits and we were pregnant by month 9 of our relationship…then again when our son was 3 almost 4…soon to have a 5 year old and 1 year old that are 4 years and 2 weeks apart
Id start doing the deed spontaneously. Just whenever. Stop making it out to be a chore.
Your sexual organs are exhausted! Ya Rabbits! Lol
Why 5 to 6 times a day? Just have sex once a day every 5-6 days . Well that would almost be everyday .
Having it too much can make it not work aswell. Find out exactly when you ovulate and have sex within those 48hrs
Also before you ovulate get your partner to go without for atleast 24-48hrs before so when yous do his swimmers are good to go
Im an ivf mumma and have gone thru alot to get my girl so know these ideas can help with ttc naturally
I used an ovulation tracker app on my phone and did it everytime week when i was ovulating. I have the coolest 3 yr old ever. Her dad was bluffin though lol he wanted her till i had her. Then he said nope and left
Take mucinex it helps to thin the cervix wall. Told by a dr
Funny story with a great result. I stopped taking BC June 26th 2015, had been on BC 17 years I was 35. My hubby and I decided to start a family. I had my period in July the following month. I was in the Navy at the time and was out to sea for the first 15 days of August. The day we pulled into our home port I woke up and noticed a sharp pain on my right side and I knew I had ovulated. Even on BC I always had this pain at the same time every month since starting BC. Anyways my hubby came to pick me up from the ship and we had an amazing welcome home evening (if you catch my drift ). Well I was scheduled to go back out to sea on the 24th of August but we got delayed for 24 hrs and I was able to come home for one more night before I left again. So I bought a test just for giggles. I woke up the next morning to get ready to go back to the ship and leave for another 10 or so days. I took the test before getting in the shower and behold it was positive!! We were excited and in disbelief that it happened so quickly. Since he hadn’t released at all since I left I think that helped too. So I went to work, went to medical and it was confirmed. We were leaving that day and I was running all over the ship to get things sorted out to not leave with the ship and it literally took all day! I was walking off the ship with temporary orders to stay behind at 430 pm as they were preparing to lift the officers brow (ladder) off the ship. As I was walking down to the pier the Captain of the ship and Reactor Officer (the guy in charge of my department) waved at me and said congratulations . May of 2016 I delivered by Caesarean my daughter who is now 5 and in kindergarten. Be aware of your body and you don’t need to wear yourselves out trying. One good shot and it will happen.
Stop trying, that’s when it happened for me
Definitely don’t make a chore out of it. You’re putting unnecessary stress and pressure on yourselves.
You don’t need to have sex 5 times a day. At that point, his sperm count is getting too low to really do anything (unless you’re in the mood). Having sex once every two-three days will give his body time to replenish his supply.
Make sure to track your periods and your ovulation. You’re typically most fertile about 2 weeks after your period. Check your discharge for a sticky watery consistency. That’s when it’ll help the sperm move up north easier.
Best of luck!
Dont try so much maybe
Tequila worked for me lol
Don’t pee or move after sex js
When I got pregnant with my first my husband and i had been doing it 8x a day every day just for the hell of it. We were havin fun. defiantly not planned but thats what i did. The 2nd one was a month of missed birth control. I would say figure out when ur ovulating and go from there. Or stop trying so HARD:laughing: best of luck love.
That is not neccessary everyday! Lol. Sounds as you just like trying! Find out your ovulation cycle. Sometime a pregnancy just happens while one may have to be planned.
Have it less often. Just once or twice every 3 days. You’re not allowing enough time for his sperm count to get high enough. He’s shooting blanks If you do it to much. Also use ovulation tests to know which days you’re fertile
This may sound weird, but I tried for months and months with my first, and I was doing the ovulation calendar and wasn’t getting pregnant, my uterus is tilted back a little bit, so someone had told me that after I had sex to lay on my back with my legs in the air against a wall with a pillow propped under my butt for 30 mins or so, so I did and got pregnant right away! I did this with my 1st 2 children! It sounds crazy, but worked for me! Good luck
Ovia app. It took 7 months, but i had been on depo for 9 years. It tracks your cycle, i still use it 6 years later.
We struggled for 10 years to have a baby . Fertility doc said have sex every 3 days for optimum sperm and allow it to build up . It took us 3 weeks to conceive our son xxx best of luck
People would be raw if they did it that often. Smdh
Stop trying. Stressing about it isnt helping at all. Have some fun, be spontaneous, try something new and exciting.
Test when you ovulating. Still do it every day, but be on top of it when your ovulating
Stop trying, stop stressing. Sometimes after sex proping your butt up on a pillow can help (laying on your back) a good friend told me to lay like that for a good 15 mins or longer and I got pregnant. The 2nd time around I had a real hard time and had PCOS and had to lose some weight and get my body back in shape. My husband and I got tested and I was the problem. It all worked out though and I pray that it works out for you.
Dude probably got a vasectomy years ago but he ain’t telling her just yet
That’s actually to much! We used a fertility dr and they advised against that. Make sure you know when your ovulating and make sure to do it during your fertile window. Preseed works as well as maca root helps with fertility.
Flo app helped me after tracking my cycle for two months n I got preg just have sex before during and after ovulation
my suggestion just dont plan it let it happen naturally trust me it works just dont try too concieve and have fun how do you think i had 5 kids lol not by planning them
Don’t listen to these “oh stop trying and it’ll happen” because that’s not for everyone. My husband and I have been trying for 3½years for baby #2 and nothing. It’ll just happen when the time is right🤷🏻♀️ so for now just enjoy each other
Check when you ovulate. Theres sticks you can pee on to see if you’re ovulating
That much sex is to much! They told us to do it once every other day as it takes time to get the sperm back charged before doing it again and it is like shooting blanks.
We stopped trying. Now have 3 kids. Stress is a big factor.
Don’t have sex so often absolutely unnecessary… once every 2 to 3 days it will make his sperm count higher when he does ejaculate basically after the 3rd time he’s probably shooting blanks anyway so it’s just not efficient. Sperm lives in the uterus for up to 5 days looking for an egg that’s why you don’t have to do it every day even if you ovulate the day after sex your good… hold legs up in the air for 20 min after sex put a pillow under lower back … track your ovulation they have ovulation test and use a tracker like Flo or my tracker to know when your ovulating … the sell pre seed lubricant at walmart which helps some women it helps his swimmers to get where they are going… and if after a year of trying it doesn’t happen go talk to your doctor they will run test but there are lot of prescriptions that are very successful …
You can also join a fb group for women TTC trying to conceive as well
Girl is your coochie ok
My husband and I tried after our second and we weren’t having any luck. My hormones were all over the place and not being able to get pregnant again stressed me out. So we decided to give this tea a try and I started taking it about 1-2 weeks before my ovulation, now we have a beautiful 3m old son. I got pregnant within a month of starting this tea. Hope the best for you!
Get fertility help.
Have you both been tested?
Try preseed. It’s a fancy lube on amazon
Get some chaste tree supplements
Track your ovulation though an app. You ovulate 2 weeks before a period typically. You gotta let his sperm count replenish. There is no need for 5-6 times a day. Don’t stress. Making a baby should be fun! There is a vitamin that supposedly helps. If this is something you guys have tried for a while try going to the doctor for some tips.
Holy shit slow down. Y’all gonna burn out before you’re knocked up
Stop trying just let it happen on its own
Why every 3 day’s?
Once a day every day should do it, worked for me the first month for both of mine.
I’m thinking if your doing it 5-6 times a day then that’s probably going to affect the quality of the sperm🤔
Ok so for starters your doing it too much… men are not really like women in the fact that we are born with all our eggs. Men have to make their swimmies… having sex that much your probably getting next to nothing worth a damn as far as quality sperm. Look up proper time frame and read up a little… there’s more then 1 reason why they say to have sex every other day. It’s not so much for us as it is for them to build up quality sperm.
Secondly get some ovulation tests. You can get them cheap in bulk on Amazon this works most of the time unless your like me and have PCOS so your phone is always higher or you peak without the release… in my case I had the best luck with tracking temps. Basal body temps to be exact. Look up how to do that use an app ect ect you’ll get it
I was 17 when I got pregnant. I wanted a baby for a long time but I knew I wasn’t old enough yet. Eventually I stopped wanting to have one so young and then I took a test about 4 months after giving up on trying and I was pregnant(I know it was a little young to want a baby but the heart wants what it wants). Sometimes you just have to “not try” when you try and want it so badly, you get stressed about it. It’ll happen when it happens. I wish you and your partner the best of luck!!
Stop trying. Stressing about it will not do anything for you. When we wanted another baby I just got off BC and went with the flow… 4-5 months later we were pregnant.
You’re probably having sex to often which has most likely diminished his sperm count, so as your doc if you should stop for a week or two then start again…
Check your diet too - start on eating healthy foods and dont stress yourself. Enough sleep too. Talk to your ob.
Stop trying so hard lol
To much. He must have no speed count left.
I stressed over having a baby cause I wasn’t pregnant after a year. I went to the Dr. They checked my tubes and said I would need surgery. 5 months later, without the surgery I was pregnant. It was the worry that prevented it. Needless to say, I never had surgery to fix anything and went on to have 5 more children. So now I have 6.
She s probably like girl nooo I’m too sore wishing you all the luck
Listen I see a bunch of stop trying, stop worrying get fertility tested. I was married at 18. We wanted a baby. We spoke with the doctor about what to do when it wasn’t happening. She said have you tried having sex while on your period. She explained that the egg doesn’t shed right away. We tried it. On the very first try of period sex we were pregnant. Make sure after he finishes lay on your back with your hips elevated (to keep his sperm inside). Good luck. Make sure you consult your doctor just incase.
The first few days after your period, is usually* the best time lol
Take an ovulation test so that you know when you’re most fertile. Don’t try so hard. Stress plays a key role. Eat a good diet. If you don’t have results after a few months, it might help to have a checkup with your OB and have your hubby’s sperm count checked. If there’s nothing wrong, your doctor would at least be able to give you advice and information on conceiving. Sending hugs and lots of baby dust your way.
Just relax. Have fun doing it. Don’t force it like that. Also not good for his sperm count. 5-6 times a say is … overkill is even too light of a word. When you guys are done just lay down and relax for a bit. Don’t get up right away.
One time. Every 2nd day. No need to 5-6 times that’s not going to help at all.
track when you’re ovulating…will b pointless to have all that sex and you’re not ovulating
Honestly stop trying so hard, it puts so much stress on you…
Make sure you’re eating healthy and go back to do it for fun
Have to agree with Katelan, myself and my fiance were trying for a baby (we’ve stopped for now as we’re getting married next year and it’ll be too much stress to keep trying now) I was told to just relax and have fun with it, be aware of your ‘window’ but don’t stress about it, if it’s your sole purpose for having sex, then it puts stress on you and your body and it won’t happen! Have sex every second day… Once or twice in those days… But have fun with it and enjoy eachother, that’s when it will happen!
To start with 5-6 times a day is waaaaayy to excessive. Its actually best to do every 2nd day from memory. Makes for really healthy sperm and good number’s
