I have heard of the Geritol thing, but I don't really think there's any truth to that. It is a vitamin and nothing more. Baby aspirin would not help your uterus lining because it actually helps to thin your blood a little. It is commonly used to prevent heart disease now. I have been taking it for a few years now. It took me 9 months to conceive my daughter and I'm in my 8th month ttc again, so I really don't think it helps. I've also been taking prenatal vitamins both times, so I don't think that helps conceive. Vitamins are good to take, especially those with lots of follic acid so that if you do get pregnant, your baby will have the follic acid right away for early brain development.
Best thing to watch for is cervical mucus that resembles raw egg whites. When you see that, you are about to ovulate, so you should have sex whenever you see that mucus. The cm also helps to protect the sperm. Your best chance for conception is to have sex the 2 days prior to and the day of ovulation. You can also try charting your daily basal body temperatures to see if and when you are ovulating. You can learn more about this at fertilityfriend.com. Good luck.

Well I have heard of Geritol but NOT baby aspirin ( I would not take that unless you talk with a doc first) I know that it is off limits when preg because it thins blood and can cause serious problems to the fetus. The cervical mucus is kinda sticky like ( not thick but more like raw egg Constancy) You need to buy a ovulation kit( at Walgreen's, walmart..etc.) That will help you determine when you will ovulate. If you have a normal 28 to 30 day cycle you need to expect ovulation around day 12-16 ( from day 1 of period) so try around those days!!

Some people use a cough syrup with an expectorant to thin the cervical mucous while trying to conceive. You might also try propping your hips up on a pillow following sex to help the sperm's motility. Good Luck.

Yes, baby aspirin DOES help fluff up your lining so the fertilized egg can implant easier. I was told to take one baby aspirin a day after doing IVF until I was 12 weeks. It does not affect pregnancy until your third trimester. Also, take prenatal vitamins and folate.

Baby aspirin has been recommended for women trying to get pregnant when going through fertility treatments. It helps to make the lining of the uterus more implanting friendly for the egg. I used it during my second attempt of IVF and it worked for me. Make sure that you do not have any medical conditions that aspirin would react to. Consult your doctor before taking any medication.

I think you should talk to your doctor.
I thought two asperin was so you jwould not get pregnant. and you did not eat them wither.
I sure can not see where there would be any help with either.
