    Aaw the average is meant to be 6 months my doc said so try not to stress too much, as thats what will stop it happening.
    Much easier said than done i know, too a little longer this time than it did with James but only max 4 months so its not that bad, it just felt like it.
    Having sex every 2-3 days is meant to be the best thing.

    Good luck

    Hey holliepop, your post touched my heart and I wanted to try and give you a few words of encouragement. I know exactly how you feel as I've been there myself.

    Here is what worked for me. Because of medical reasons, I was actually told I couldn't have children so I actually eventually gave up and stopped trying. Don't get me wrong, this didn't mean that I gave up sex with my partner. Quite the contrary.

    What I did do though, was I started eating VERY healthy food and also started an exercise plan. As I became fitter and healthier, the sex got better and I felt more relaxed.

    Then, guess what? I started feeling sick in the morning, and I put this down to a tummy bug. Then it got worse and my tummy started to swell. Well, you can guess what the real cause was. Yep, it was a bit of a miracle, but I was actually pregnant at the age of 32.

    Now, I'm not suggesting that this can or will work for everyone, but it's maybe worth a shot. What do you think?

    By the way, have a look at this:

    This actually worked for me.

    I wish you all the very best.
    Good luck

    Having sex every day means the quality of sperm is probably less hence the best being every 2/3 days.

    i heard it was every 1 or 2 days. If you leave it 3 days you might miss ovulation completely.
