Is there such a thing as having too much sex with your spouse? Assuming you are open to life. Is there any church teaching on acceptable number of times per day/week etc?

Is sex on Sundays allowed?
 
Nope.
Nope.
Yes.

I would recommend that you stay in good communication with your spouse and do not feel disappointed if this changes. It is not realistic once kids come along, for instance, to have sex at all hours of the day.
 
If you or your spouse is participating more out of a sense of obligation than desire then, perhaps, that would be too much.
 
Chastity is not only for single people. Chastity in marriage is the understanding that one’s spouse is not the property of the other, and must always submit to the wishes/demands of the other. This is where communication is so vital in marriage.
If you have any misgivings about your treatment of (or by) your spouse, have a good heart to heart talk. The sad thing would be one day to find that love has grown cold, sex is an unpleasant “duty”, and the warmth and passion has gone out of marriage due to the self centeredness of one party. A self-centeredness that grows slowly through habit or a lack of communication. A spouse is a gift from God, not property obtained by fiat.

Shalom
