Dtd sharing, how many times is enough?

[Maisy24]

Hi

I am concerned me and dh aren't dtd enough to conceive. We don't have the highest of sex drives to begin with and before ttc we were both happy with around twice a month, so it's been somewhat hard work!

I've attached my last 3 charts, do we need to step it up even more? As you can see I always have different cycle lengths so it makes it really difficult to know when I've ovulated!

It would be good to hear how many times other couples ttc are doing it or some experienced mums or pregnant ladies that know what worked for them

Hi OP, I think you're doing fine. Dtd every other day is what's recommended and it looks like you're pretty much there. I think with the last two times I've caught, we dtd only twice in my fertile period. First time has given me my beautiful dd and second time was sadly a CP.
But I think you're doing great 😃

Each time I've conceived it's been the month I've thought we haven't dtd enough. Normally 4 or 5 times.
So I wouldn't worry :)

Sorry I cant see the images but you can track ovulation using predictor kits or by feeling your cervix, even if you have irregular periods. We tried for 6 months with DD by having regular ish sex with no luck, then the first month I started tracking my cervix we felt pregnant straight away.

Great thanks for the replies everyone.

@BeanBag7 what is the cervix meant to be like before ovulation? What am I looking for?
