Would it affect our chances if we BD once every 24 hours?

The reason I'm asking is and I apologise for the overshare but since we lost Beau my sex drive has been through the roof (I a really hoping it's just due to hormones). I am just about coping with once every 24 hours but I'm worried it would ruin our chances

Any ideas?

If worse come to worse I'll buy DH a Johnny Vegas mask. That should be enough to keep me away from him for a while

Hi Snowball hope u are ok.
From what I know/have heard it can affect ur chances but depends on how high DH's sperm count is no?

If your DH has a normal sperm count then it's fine, but if he's got a low sperm count it's recommended to have sex every other day rather than everyday.

i think we can get too caught up in the right time, the right positions, the right vitamins - ultimately making love makes a baby, so don't babydance, make love with your hubby when you are in the mood and I truly believe it will happen hun xxx

It shouldn't affect anything as long as your hubby has a normal sperm count (it may even slightly increase your chances).

I agree with the others, as long as he has a normal sperm count then no problem. At the end of the day, it's not just about conceiving, it's also about you guys as a couple so if you're in the mood, go for it!!
