Does anyone know anything I can do to up my chances of conceiving this month? I am going to BD every other,use OPKS and BBT chart.. I am going to take prenatals just in case? Should my DF take vitamins? Umm does any of the green tea or robitussin methods work? Anything I can do to help?!?!

I know one thing about him.
He must not ejaculate for 3-4 days. That way the semen(sperm + fluids from prostate + fluids from seminal vesicles + all others) will have the right balance, consistency, and thickness. And he will ejaculate farther and more quantity.

I think the robitussin is only to thin out the mucous (spelling) if you are on clomid, because your cervical mu. gets very thick and harder for sperm to travel through. You should already take a good prenatal vit. and folic acid this helps in preparation of the uterine lining. You should also know your cycle know if and when you are ovulating. A good website for charting is fertilityfriend.com or mycycle.com. Also other factors come into play such as ur age and how long youve been ttc. some healthy couples take up to 6 months to conceive. I think the next step for you would be to talk to your ob/gyn and go from there. Good luck and baby dust.

I know how this sounds but stop tring. My husband and I tried for 2 years. All the stuff with out going to the dr. And I finally got sick of the dissapointment every month so I told him I am done trying it will happen when it happens. And well 3 months latter I was prego. I think the stress and the constant thinking about it is what causes troubles. Good luck and just go with the flow. I know it is hard but it will happen when the time is right. For now just have fun practicing but don't put any pressure on it.

DO NOT TAKE ROBITUSSIN!! Other than that live like you were already pregnant. Eat right, don't drink, don't smoke, don't take any drugs except Tylenol, etc. And of course, PRAY!! If it's right to be it will happen. Good luck!!
