I don't think there is a normal, there is an average. But this would not work for me. The only times I've been that disinterested were the years I was breastfeeding (tanked my libido completely) and when my ex got radicalized and started spouting racist twaddle. Outside of those, it's just been defined by how often the guy could, so once a week with my ex and once a day with my husband. I think more sex is a positive good in a sexual, romantic relationship. It's free, it's fun, it feels good.
Are you doing natural family planning and she is afraid of sex closer to ovulation? Then that's sensible. I'd be frustrated though.
