We want a baby so bad, and I was just wondering if you had any suggestions that would help me get pregnant as quickly as possible.
Thank you so much.
Also,
* I have a 30 day cycle, I am regular.

Everyone's cycle is different. There is a myth that woman ovulate 14 days after their period begins...but that is only an AVERAGE and each month can be different. The other thing is that sperm can live inside you for up to 5 days.... so if you are having a shortened cycle one month and you have sex right after your period and you ovulate earlier than day 14 than yes, there is a chance of getting pregnant. The only way to know is to know exactly when you ovulate. There are several ways to know and some are more effective than others. Some can only predict before ovulation happens and some can only predict that is has already happened. The absolute best info I can give you is to go read a book called Taking Charge of your fertility by Toni Weschler. It will help you understand your body and all the myths about it. It will help you time when you are ovulating and the best times to conceive – or not! . It's about knowing your body and knowing when you are fertile or not.
My husband and I tried for 1 year and had no luck..… We tried ovulation predictors , laying with pillows under me for 20 min. everything……the first month that I began using the book I realized that my timing was WRONG!. We got pregnant that very first month and I am now due Feb 2, 2007. You can pick and choose what you do with your info. Good luck and don't listen the all the myths! Even if you don't get into charting and everything....it will help you in so many ways!

If you've been trying for more than a year (the average it takes for #1 according to my doctor) see your gyno. I waited waaay too long and saw a couple of quacks before my current doc diagnosed endometriosis. I had day surgery to relieve it as well as fix some problems from my appendix years earlier. I was pregnant 2 months later! It took a total of 10 years to get my little boy. So if you have any doubts - get them checked out! It could be something simple.
Good luck! Motherhood is wonderful. :)

Go on birth control pills, then stop taking them. Supposedly it's easy to get pregnant after you stop taking BC pills, because it's like right after you have a baby, and your hormones are kinda crazy.
I stopped taking my BC pills about a month ago, and was pregnant 2 weeks later.
Other suggestions are missionary position, I heard that it is best and it's how I got pregnant. Lay with a pillow under you after sex for about 10 minutes. NO douching whatsoever. Start taking a prenatal vitamin. Buy an ovulation predictor kit to be exact, and buy the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler.
(((BABY DUST))) and Lots of luck!

Get the book - Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler. I tried for several months without getting pregnant - I read the book and althought I don't know if I am pregnant yet - I at least know what is happening to my body - why its happening and when I am most likely to conceive - it has relieved my stress, taught me alot and gave me much needed HOPE!
Good luck!

Good luck, I would take prenatal vitamin and eat health. Exercise also helps. I took my 2 1/2 years to get pregnant. Stay positive and don't stress, everything happens in due time.

Start taking prenatal vitamins that's what my doctor recommended for me I started ovulating Thursday and finish today it the calculator said my best chance to get pregnant is today I'm so excited!!!Ovulate today and i'm trying for baby #1 also... I bought the Prenatal Vitamins @ Kaiser they where only $6.00 not bad...
Good Luck!!!

DON'T STRESS! That's most important. Eat right and have lot's of fun sex. Don't make sex a job it still needs to be fun. Also maybe try taking some pre-natal vitamins that you can get at the store that way your body would be more ready.

Buy a test kit from boots which tells you exactly which you most fertile days are.
