I heard that yams help you to concieve. Are there any other wives tales such as this one that may help me get pregnant?

Ready to have a baby? Experts agree that determining when you're ovulating is the single most important factor in getting pregnant quickly.

The general rule of thumb is that women ovulate 14 days before their next period. A normal menstrual cycle will last between 23 and 35 days. (If your cycles are shorter or longer than the normal range, you might want to consult an expert.) But because a woman's body varies from month to month, few women have the exact same number of days in every cycle. And because sperm can live for two to three days after intercourse and the egg can survive for only 12 to 24 hours after ovulation, the optimal time to have intercourse is one to three days before ovulation. To have a boy, wait until the day of ovulation.

Get an ovulation chart and find out when you are ovulating, (usually 14 daays after the first day of your period). try putting a pillow under your hips after sex and wait about 30 mins. Do some excercises while on your back with your legs in the air because the uterus can move during intercourse. Stress can also play a part in whether you concieve or not. So relax and try not to focus on getting pregnant, just enjoy the sex.

this is practically full proof! Take folic acid first off i think 500 mg a day or prenatal vitamins to help your body prepare. Get an ovulation kit if you are ovulating or 1-2 days before have sex if you oragasm it helps alot after your done lay there for 20 min try this once or twice and you'll have a baby by the end of the year if you and you partner are able to concieve good luck!!!!!!

Old wive's tale.

Best advice to give you---get an ovulation predictor. I used ClearBlue Easy Digital Ovulation Predictor. It costs more than other brands but you don't have to deal with lines. It either shows an empty circle if you are not ovulating and a smiley face if you are. It was dead on for me and worked because now I am 16 weeks pregnant.

Good luck!

stop trying to conceive. This seems to work the best. My friend was trying for 5 years to get pregnant. They finally stoped trying, and within a month or so she was pregnant. It helps if you are relaxed. Or you can go to the store and get a ovualtion predictor and set your cycle and try on the "furtile days" (By the way I am a woman did not see this is under my hubby's screenname). But, I have heard if you want a boy, eat meat, want a girl, its dairy.

Mexican yams mimic estrogen, so don't eat them unless your natural estrogen levels are low.

I found using a diaphram and drinking too much an tried and true method of getting pregnant. ;)

The best way to get pregnant is relax, and have loads of orgasms during intercourse. That way the semen is pulled deeper into your uterus and closer to your eggs.

Good luck!

sure, it incredibly is because of the fact the enzymes released once you have a yeast an infection mimic those released once you're pregnant. in spite of in case you probably did no longer say what else is going on with you to make you question in spite of if or no longer you're pregnant. bypass see a doctor..if money is a factor then detect a health facility.

You can start at eight, every day
