How to get pregnant now...advice needed!?!?
I am ttc #1 and today AF showed up :(. So I am wondering if anyone has advice about how to conceive faster! My husband and BD-ed every day during my ovulation week. We used the ovulation kits and felt really good about the timing. I even layed w/my hips tilited up for over an hour after everytime. We also tried pre-seed. What is wrong here??? I really need some tips because this has been the longest month ever and round 2 is right around the corner again! Thanks!

How long have you been ttc? if this is your first month i wouldnt sweat...i know that you want to get pregnant right away. we all do. but it can take a healthy couple up to a year to concieve. from my experience (with friends and family because i have been ttc for 3 yrs unsuccessfully) 4 months has been the magic ttc number for 90 precent of them.
but among the list of things to try are:
-pinnapple core durring tww
-grapefruit juice
-soy isoflavones (what i take to make me O)
-fertility massage
-yoga
-prenatal vitamins
-evening primrose oil
-taking a trip
-talking to your ovaries, uterus, ect...(it worked for a lady on this site)
-accupressure
-stopping smoking
-aspirin (do not take if you are doing the pinapple core)
-instead soft cups
-BD 3 consecutive days after your LH surge too
-consuming more dairy
-clomid (only if your doc prescribes it) (soy is nature's clomid and id deffinatly recommend it)
- mucinx or robutussin (what i take also)
-some say fertility bracelets work...havent for me
-elevated hips
-No oral during fertile period
-abstaining from BD until fertile period
-have DH drink caffine about 1hr before BD
-Digital OPKs (i got a negative on a strip OPK but used the same urin for a digi and got a BFP...i would have missed my surge had it not been for that and i need all the opportunities i can get)
Hope some of these help! and

Im going for having sex every other day throughout the whole cycle, i read that sex every day is too much and having too little does not make a mans sperm healthy. We started the every other day thing this month so hopefully on month 3 his sperm will be really healthy. Its hard work when youve been in a 6 year relationship. Weve started using sasmar plus lube which is sperm friendlyand quite fun. Next on the list are instead softcups to keep the little fellas in. The idea is not to try so hard then it might happen. Hopefully you and i an all the other gals out there will get there In the near near future

Courtney, I feel u honey! I am trying to give myself a good shake right now ( a slap actually!), we have only just decided to ttc#1 and Im getting my knickers in a knot already thinking about it! I think the excitement of starting to try brings about an urgency with it and weve just got to try to relax. Theres no magic wand and it will happen when it happens. I feel like now the time has finally come for me to have a baby ( I am now 35 so it has been a later decision than most for the 1st baby) I just want to get pregnant a.s.a.p. so I can stop worrying about what ifs...Ive just bought my supplies ready .... pregnancy book, ovulation tests, pregnancy tests and hubby`s bought my all important supplements folic acid etc...we are both fit as a fiddle and so ready! Emotionally right now Im getting it all from reading everyones notes on this forum and Im feeling everyones angst, disappointment, joy, despair, relief, elation, desperation, frustration....and so on...it`s unreal. I never thought Id get to the stage in my life when I felt so badly about wanting a child. So, do what Im doing, give yourself a shake, its early days, just got to try to enjoy the build up and put some positive energy in there and feel blessed with where you are at in your life right now, how much you are loved and how blessed you are for the future. x
