One of the best ways to increase your chances of getting pregnant is to find out your most fertile day of the month.
You can start by buying a Basal Body Temperature Thermometer. It is different from a regular thermometer because it measures very small temperature changes. You check your temp each morning before you get out of bed. When you ovulalate your temp should rise by about .6-1.0 degrees. But you only know that you've ovulated after the temp has gone up and the ovulation has already passed.
But by checking this for one or two months you can determine that you actually are ovulating and roughly when it will come. Then you buy an ovulation detection kit. There's one called, "First Response" that's widely available. It detects a spike in one of your hormones. When it's positive, that's the day you are ovulating and most fertile. So if you know roughly when to expect your ovulation, you start testing a couple days before. When you see the change from negative to positive, you know you've ovulated.
Good Luck! |

Or failing all that un-needed investment ..... you could just assume that Mrs Mchosay is most fertile 14 days after the first day of her last period - assuming, that is, that she is like 95%+ of the population at large. In any case she is unlikely to vary by +/- 3 - 4 days (assuming she doesn't have a cycle in excess of 33 days, if so add a couple more) so just bonk like crazy from 10 days after the first day of her period for 8 - 10 days, if that's not too much hardship If there are no fertility issues for either of you it's just down to luck then ......... but that's the "window" you have to aim for.
For you good sir ........... lots of fruit and veg, no alcohol and cut back on the smoking (should you partake). For your good lady ........ lots of dark green veg (for the Folic Acid - ESSENTIAL), and again lay off the alcohol and nicotine. And make sure you get plenty of sex into the days leading up to fertility hot spot ...... two or three days without and your licckle spermies go a wee bit stale - so keep creating newbies!! |

Why limit it to just 1/3 of the month? Bonk like crazy lots! And try every position out whilst you're at it, maybe invent a few new ones You know what they say about all work and no play!!  |

Make sure your wife goes the loo before you go to bed so she has an empty bladder tell her to lay on her back put a pillow under her bum to raise it up two if you can manage it make love then she has to stay in that position for at least two hours this position helps them swim help the little spermies as much as you can. Being in that position makes your legs ache I know but it worked for me and not just on one or two occassions good luck let us know how you get on ( left leg first ) only joking but hope it works |

Thanks all of your comments they were helpfull
all we have to do now is lots and lots of the other
i don't think she has ever been up for it so much
Im trying to do all the right things take cool baths
take vitamins, fuit and veg etc. We both gave up smoking about
5months ago.
It's so different doing it for a reason it has not taken
the passion away at all but it so much more emotional
for both of us it's great
We are both havin a great time and it makes all that practice
worthwhile. I cant wait to be a dad it's going to be great
Thanks again
Yours
Matt xxx |
