Figure out when in your cycle you're ovulating, then have sex 3 days prior to ovulation, the day of and for 2 days after (A total of 6 days straight). Some people recommend every other day for the 6 days, but I've always done it for the 6 straight. Sperm lives up to 72 hrs, your egg lasts 24, so if there's plenty of sperm in there waiting for your egg, your chances are highly improved. I've successfully fallen pregnant 3 times (lost the 2nd due to a ruptured appendix at 16 wks) using this method, as well as all of my friends. Having sex 3 x a week isn't going to do anything productive, if you're not ovulating. Do you know the signs of when you're ovulating? Happy to discuss further if you need to.
