hi and welcome to HCM

Its sufficient if you people have sex during the fertile period of a cycle.

If a women's menstrual cycle varies from 26days to 31days cycle, The shortest cycle [26days] minus18days=8th day. The longest cycle [31days] minus 10days=21st day Thus, 8th to 21st day of each cycle counting from first day of menstrual period is considered as fertile period. That is UNSAFE PERIOD.Period other than this fertile period in a menstrual cycle is considered as SAFE PERIOD

Sine you are planning for baby, you are suppose to have unprotected sex with your partner during the fertile or unsafe period.

Even after 3 successful attempts if you fail to conceive, then consult a doctor for complete evaluation.
