me and my husbund have been trying for a baby for over 2 years now has anyone got any advice out there thanks

Answer 1

Relax. Stop obsessing about getting pregnant. Stress can interfere with conception. Don't let sex become a chore.

Have lots of sex, especially when _you_ are horny (a woman is generally most receptive to sex when she's ovulating).

Man on top positions are good for conception. Doggy style is OK but not great. Standing positions are right out.

Answer 2

I would see a doc/gyn first to rule out any fertility issues. I would also read the book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" by Tony Weishler (not sure on spelling but you can go to www.ovusoft.com to find it - theres a great message board on that site to to chat with others TTC). It shows yuo how to track your menstrual cycles to figure out exctaly when you really ovulate as not every women is smack dab on day 14. I seriously used this book and I conceived on cycle day 61.... I thought it was a lost cause that month and figured my period would show up when my stress level went down (was in middle of house buying).

Good luck and try not to stress about it... If it helps my sister had tried for about 4 years and was almost at the point where she was giong to try fertility drugs and she got pregnant after she stopped trying and worrying about it :).

Good luck.

The worst advice that you can recieve is "just relax." That always makes me think about it even more, and relax less. We have been trying for 18 months, and no signs of a pregnancy. Ovulation tests showed I was ovulating, but our doctor told us that my eggs could be lasting a very short time, and even if we time it just right, it is not right enough.

We have just begun taking Clomid for a first cycle, so hopefully something will come out of that.

Also, my doctor recommends having sex every other day, always on the day you believe you are ovulating.

Just keep smiling, and remember to keep sex fun!! It can become tedious when you are trying really hard to try to get pregnant.

Also, a great book to try would be "Taking charge of your fertility".

Good Luck!!

Kelly, to get pregnant you must have sex on a day that your eggs are being released.

After the 3rd day from the day that menses started put a thermometer into your mouth and check your body temperature every morning before you start turning in bed. The best time is at about 4 a.m. Maintain a chart. You will find that on one day the body temperature drops from 1/2 degree to one degree. This is the day that your eggs are being released. If you want to get pregnant this is the day that you must have sex. Tell your husband to ejaculate on his inward thrust so that the sperms will shoot deep inside.

After having sex you must stay in bed for about 30 mins with your knees bent up with a pillow under your buttocks so that the sperms will not pour out - to enable them to travel up.

Get your husband to save his sperms in the testacles for at least 3 days before sex to enable them to mature well to do their job.

Answer 5

I had similar problem.
You could always try fertility pills given by your doctor.
Now, there is an old wise tell that states to take a tablespoon of cough syrup a half hour before intercourse, and that if you do that for awhile, some say it works. They say there is something in cough syrup that helps with fertilization.
I dont know, you know how old wise tells are.

Answer 6

It took me 2 years to get pregnant. What finally worked for me was that I stopped trying and put the situation in God's hands. I realized that I couldn't put myself through the roller coaster of emotions that I was feeling each month.....hoping that I was pregnant only to find out that I wasn't. After giving up and giving it to God, 2 months later I was pregnant. Try praying, putting the situation in God's hands and relaxing. Best wishes!

Answer 7

I know a couple that tried for many years and now they finally have a baby girl. They trusted in God's timing, and he delivered. You just have to remember it's up to him, and trust that his will is going to be done. Pray about it, and I think you'll be suprised at the outcome! Good luck!!

Answer 8

yes...don't go out for any expensive inveetro or fertilization procedures...enjoy life for what it is...hmm...i sometimes wonder if this whole scenario isn't like a Chinese finger puzzle...the more you struggle the worse it gets...heck if me an my wife couldn't have babies...well lets just say things would be different...if you both relax and accept what life has to offer, I might imagine you might find yourself sporting a stroller yet...a child is the single largest responsibility anyone could accept...not to say it isn't w/ out rewards...i just think no one is really ever truly ready for what parenting has in store...there are herbal tea remedies out there you might enjoy...I try to take a lax approach...gl...

Answer 9

me and my b/f were trying to have a baby and a friend of mine told me to have sex every day for a month and it worked she said her sister had tried for a year and a half and that is what her doctor told her to do

Answer 10

Hot baths or hot water can kill sperm. Caffeine, alcohol, smoking cigarettes or other drug consumption can cause problems. If you are stressed about conceiving than this can cause problems with fertility as well. I would go see a doctor about this.
