How many times DTD?

Question for you ladies, how many times do you DTD following static smiley face? Also how many times during the high fertility days?

My OH & I struggle to DTD regularly due to health issues (I have interstitial cystitis which makes it painful & OH had surgery on his Blusha few years ago which means it takes longer for him to finish - sorry if TMI!) but it means if we are DTD every 3 days during the FW we are doing well! Just worry it's not enough

Only takes once! Honestly just do it when you can / feel like it but perhaps try and land one of the days on the day ovulation if possible? That's what we do - similar issues.

I ended up with 11 days of flashing smiley! We DTD every other day and did 8 times in 12 days because I didn't ovulate until CD21! Did get BFP though :)

Last pregnancy we DTD twice - day before peak and day of!

I aim for every other day when flashing then day of peak and day after (so the 2 days of static smiley) x

I got pregnant last time after doing it just once, the day after the static smiley 🤷🏻‍♀️ Lucky, but as PP says, it only takes one (theoretically)

We only managed the day of static smiley. I also had 11 days of flashing smileys and managed to dtd 4 times I think, but we were just exhausted! I'm hoping it's enough but I reallt wish we did it the day after the static. We both have low sex drives so this is way way above what we would normally do 😂
