I have been trying to get pregnant for the last 2 months what can i do can someone help me please?

Question

my period along stay on for like 5 day i just went off wed is this a good time to try

Answer 1

In all actuality 2 months is really not that long to be trying. Average couple the has sex ever other day throughout their cycle has about a 20% chance every month of becoming pregnant.

MYTH: There's something wrong with you if you don't conceive within the first three months of trying.
This is a particularly nasty bit of misinformation because it causes a lot of couples a tremendous amount of anxiety and grief for no good reason. Although some couples do manage to conceive within the first three months of trying, a large number of other highly fertile couples take considerably longer than that. Consider the numbers for yourself:

* Your odds of conceiving in any given cycle are approximately one in four.

* Approximately 60% of couples who are actively trying to conceive (having intercourse two to three times a week) will conceive within the first 6 months of trying, 75% within 9 months, 80% within a year, and 90% within 18 months.

MYTH: Just relax and you'll get pregnant
If you haven't had anyone pass along this little gem yet, consider yourself blessed. It's one of most pervasive fertility myths out there. Although it's true that a lot of stress can cause your reproductive system to shut down (it's part of the "fight or flight" survival mechanism we all possess), there's no firm evidence that moderate amounts of stress (that is, the running-to-the-bathroom-to-see-if-you're-pregnant-yet kind of stress) affects your chances of conceiving. "This notion implies that only women who can relax can get pregnantand that's absurd," says Mark Sauer, M.D., director of the division of reproductive endocrinology at Columbia Presbyter-ian Hospital in New York in an article at http://homearts.com/rb/health/18getpbb.htm. Here's what a few of the members of our pregnancy panel had to say about that perennial piece of advice:

I myself believed it was true that if you relax it will just happen so I have before given information to women ttc telling them relax and it will just happen.


MYTH: You need to have sex every single day if you want to get pregnant
Although you do boost your odds of conceiving if you have sex every day rather than every other day, the difference is fairly minimal.

Researchers at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences recently concluded that couples who had intercourse every other day during their fertile period had a 22% chance of conceiving in any given cycle, as compared to 25% for couples who had intercourse every day. On the other hand, couples who had intercourse only once a week reduced their odds of conceiving in a given cycle to 10%.

If your partner's sperm count is low or marginal, you may be advised to have intercourse every other day in order to give his sperm count a chance to build up. Your doctor may even recommend that your partner refrain from ejaculation during the days leading up to your most fertile period. He won't recommend that you limit your sex life to just a few days a month, however: studies have shown that abstaining from sex for more than seven days can decrease your fertility. Any gain in sperm count is more than offset by the increased number of aged sperm cells with lower fertilization potential.

MYTH: To give the sperm a chance to make it through the cervix, you should stand on your head or lie on your back with your knees to your chest for at least half an hour after making love
Although it's not a good idea to dash off to the bathroom and allow all of the semen to dribble into the toilet, you don't have to go to extreme measures to ensure that the sperm make their way past the cervix. For the most part, they know where they're headed and what they're supposed to do when they get there.

"Sperm are like salmon," says Mark Sauer, M.D., a professor of obstetrics and gynecology at the College of Physicians and Surgeons at Columbia University, who was quoted in an article that is available online at http://homearts.com/rb/health/ 19getpg3.html. "They always seem to swim upstream. A couple shouldn't be concerned about what position they usethe sperm know what direction to head in."

MYTH: Your left ovary releases an egg one month, and your right ovary the next
It's a great theory, but there's very little truth to it. Ovulation is a random event each month, with both ovaries vying for the honor on a first-come, first-served basis. If you have only one ovary, it wins the draw by default.

During the first half of your menstrual cyclethe so-called follicular, or proliferative, phaseapproximately 20 eggs (or ova) begin to ripen and occupy fluid-filled sacks called follicles. At the same time, the level of estrogen in your body continues to rise, causing the endometrial lining in your uterus to thicken, thereby readying it for the possible implantation of a fertilized egg and boosting the production of cervical mucus, the substance that helps the sperm to make their way to the egg.

Just prior to ovulation, rising levels of estrogen trigger a brief but intense surge of lutenizing hormone (LH) from the pituitary gland that causes the dominant follicle to rupture and release its egg. Some women experience pain in the lower abdomen as this is occurring, a sensation the Germans call "mittelschmerz" or "pain in the middle."

During the second half of your cyclethe luteal or secretory phasethe ruptured ovarian follicle (now known as the corpus luteum, or "yellow body") begins to produce progesterone, the so-called "pregnancy hormone." It continues to produce progesterone until the placenta assumes this function some three months down the road. The rising levels of progesterone cause the endometrial glands to ready the uterus for the arrival of a fertilized egg, which happens some five days later, if conception actually occurs.

When pregnancy occurs, your progesterone levels remain high. If it doesn't occur, the corpus luteum begins to regress; progesterone levels fall; and 12 to 14 days after ovulation, the uterus begins to shed the endometrial layer and your menstrual period begins.

Basically what this website that I pulled this information off of says is that there are alot of women who are completely in tune with their bodies and just when they think they know when their body is about to ovulate, Myself being one of them but just when you think you know what is going on your body does a switch on you, so my best advice to you is to understand your odds of becoming pregnant, let sex be fun and enjoyable and make love to your husband because you want to and let having a baby be a wonderful surprise. Don't turn sex into a chore it will happen in your time. I am a big believer in prayer and I do believe that God has a plan for all of us and when he thinks we are ready for a baby he will bless you with a baby.
I wish you much success in your journey of ttc, and I hope all works out well for you and your husband. Best of luck to you and baby dust to you.

Answer 3

It's only been 2 months - relax. You generally ovulate 14 days prior the start of your next period - start having every other day sex 5 days before this date and continue until 5 days after. If you want to cover all your bases, just have sex every other day all through the month. You'll get there eventually, but the more you stress about it, the less likely it'll happen.

Answer 4

It's best to try to conceive during the optimal fertile times of your cycle, which is usually days 12-16.

There are things to do to see when in that time window it is better for you to try, such as ovulation predictor kits, charting your temperature, and charting your cervical mucus. To increase your odds of conception at the ideal times, I'd recommend that you lay in bed for up to 30 minutes afterwards with a pillow under your bum. This should help the sperm get to the egg better.

The chances of conception if you have intercourse every day during the fertile time is 25% for a normal, healthy couple, which goes up to around 86% after 3 months. So, don't beat yourself up over the fact that you haven't conceived in 2 months. Take your time, and try to have some fun with it!

Answer 5

Please dont be frustrated after just 2 months!! It took me almost 3yrs to conceive our daughter. If you stress you can mess up your cycle and delay ovulation or prevent implantation.
Just relax and try having sex every other day from the day your period ends until you know for sure you've ovulated.
I also recommend using ovulation predictor tests starting on the 10th day of your cycle until you get a positive one.
Also, dont use any lubricants like KY, it kills sperm...you can however use PreSeed...its sperm friendly. Also have your man drink a caffinated drink about an hour before sex.
And lastly...some women have a tilted uterus and don't know it.
Every time you have sex switch up your positioning afterwards. One night lay on your back with your hips tilted for about 10min...and the next night lay on your belly with a pillow under your pelvis for 10min. This can insure sperm gets where it needs to be no matter what position your uterus is in.

Answer 6

2 months really isn't that long to be trying. It took me a year to get pregnant. Try to track when you ovulate by taking your Basal Body Temperature (BBT) every morning. Information on taking your BBT can be found here: http://parenting.ivillage.com/ttc/ttcsigns/0,,h4lp,00.html

Tracking your BBT won't necessarily help you become pregnant, but it will give you an idea of when during the month you ovulate.

You can also use information and calendars on http://www.mymonthlycycles.com/ to track your period and get an idea of when you may be ovulating. Good luck.

Answer 7

one of the worst things a woman can do is trying to get pregnant and letting her husband know that she is only having sex to get pregnant, By the time you become pregnant your husband lost the enjoyment for sex with you. Enjoy sex and think that for every month your not pregnant you can save money for the time you become pregnant and have the baby. Children cost money.
If you feeling insecure in your marriage and need a baby to be more secure, you should not have one. You should find out what makes you insecure and solve the problem first.

Answer 8

First of all relax if you can..it is easier to conceive when you are relaxed. It sometimes takes a while to get pregnant. Second, they say that ovulation is the most fertile time. I have heard that they have home ovulation kits to detect when you are ovulating, I dont know how accurate they are or not but maybe give that a try. I hope this happens for you soon.

Answer 9

Lol...2 months? Don't over-exert yourself! It takes most people about 6-8 months to conceive....if after a year you haven't gotten pregnant, then go to a fertility specialist. Otherwise, just keep having sex when you're ovulating.

Answer 10

Do you about when you ovulate? How to recognize when you are fertile?

If you don't know the answers, I highly recommend the book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" by Toni Welscher.

Answer 11

stop trying and give it time you just started. it take some up to a year to get pregnant
