Question

I think I want to be pregnant so bad that I make myself feel pregnant. Anyone one else have this?

Ive been trying for over a year to concive a child. I have done everything asked of me by my dr and have been cleared for good health. Every month seems to be a disappointment and last week I was five days late, feeling tired and even throwing up. However I stated my period and it seems like I want to have a baby so bad that I "trick" myself into feeling the way I do. I am at a point where I feel discouraged and dont know what else to do. Is there any thing I can do to boost my fertility or chances of getting pregnant other than just tracking my cycles? (besides expensive fertility treatments)

Yes this is actually called ghost pregnancy... You can actually trick your mind into believing you are pregnant... Even develop a belly as if you were also. But has your other half been checked for fertility as well?

Not yet. Im going to order a OTC semen analysis first and if it detects a problem then we were going to seek medical intervention. But also I think he should take some type of supplements to improve his fertility.

Improving your diet can do a lot for your fertility. Cutting out sugar, white flour products, dairy, caffeine and alcohol can all help improving fertility. Instead focus of fruits, dark green leafy vegetables, nuts, seeds, berries, avocados, healthy proteins, Spirulina, flaxoil, fishoil, Take a prenatal vitamin, additional vitamin D and a good vit B complex. Acupuncture can be helpful also. Excellent reading: Marilyn Shannon's book "Fertility, Cycles, and Nutrition". Best wishes and the Lord's blessings.

Not sure where your located but walgreens and cvs carry a semen analyzer. Hardest part is getting your other half to actually do it lol. I would def get him checked out first before you decide to go to a specialist due to cost. But google Rosie pope and follow her link to her pregnancy website. She has a ton of great all natural vitamins to help both you and your other half
