Dr said to BD every other day all month

My husband and I have two separate family drs. We went to our own to talk about our health and also discuss our TTC questions.

Just a little background....we ve been ttc for about 5 cycles now (I know we are still in our early stages and many of you are trying for much longer 😞) but 5 months also seem like 5 years!

we usually do it every day starting CD 11 until CD16. The thing is, I have just started bbt and realized I ovulate anywhere between CD15-CD18. I only used to rely on OPKs first 3 months but the bbt helps me determine when I actually ovulated.

So both our drs told us..we are not doing it enough. They both told us separately to BD every other day the day after period ends to the day before the next period begins so every other day for the month. They told us to do this for the next 4 months.

Have any of you done this and gotten pregnant? Have your drs advised the same? Doing it 5/6 times a month is not enough? I’m just afraid we will be too exhausted. But might be worth a shot for a few months.
