Practice patience. When it comes to making a baby, most couples don't succeed on the first (or second, or third) go around. In fact, it takes most fertile couples in their 20s six cycles (or more as your age increases) before hitting the pregnancy jackpot. So when at first you don't succeed, try, try again — patiently.

Take control. Become familiar with your monthly cycle and learn the signs of ovulation so you can time intercourse right (and talking about intercourse, experts often recommend that you have sex every other day — not very day — when you're trying to conceive. Those boys need time to refuel!). While you're waiting, start with a clean bill of health: Schedule a full physical, make an appointment with your dentist, get a manicure (okay — so that's not necessary for good physical health but certainly helpful in the mental health department).

Improve your diet. Make sure you're taking a prenatal vitamin, getting enough folic acid, and covering all your pregnancy nutrient needs. Try to cut out as much as possible of the less-than-ideal foods you might currently be enjoying (yes, that would include Ring Dings and Cheez Doodles). If you're a big coffee or alcohol drinker, cut back. There has been some research linking heavy coffee drinking (more than three to six cups a day) with a decrease in fertility. Heavy alcohol consumption can also interfere with fertility by disrupting your menstrual cycle (not to mention cause great harm to a developing fetus if you do conceive). So think before you drink and limit your daily java fix.

Get your weight under control. Are you underweight or overweight? Not only will getting your weight as close as you can to your ideal weight make your pregnancy easier, but it'll also increase your chances for getting pregnant. Do keep in mind, however, that going on crash diets or fad diets (including low-carb ones) can also make conception elusive — so lose weight sensibly.

Exercise — but not too much. Strenuous or excessive exercise can hurt your chances for conception, but a good exercise program can put you on the right track – plus it can enhance relaxation.

Kick butt. I'm talking cigarettes here. Did you know that smoking can not only interfere with fertility, but can also cause your eggs to age (meaning that a smoker's 30-year-old eggs act more like 45-year-old eggs, making conception more difficult and miscarriage more likely)? Kicking the habit now is not only the best gift you can give your baby-to-be, but it can make it more likely that you'll conceive that baby-to-be (and, of course, that you'll have a healthier home environment to raise him or her in).

Get your partner involved. And I'm not just talking about sex — though he'll definitely (happily) play an important role there. Making sure your partner improves his health habits as you do will improve your chances for conception. The same bad habits that can do a number on your fertility (poor diet, smoking, alcohol, and so on) can also interfere with his ability to get you pregnant. Feed him the same healthy diet you're eating and give him a vitamin supplement for dessert.

Seek support. Does it seem as if everyone except you has a baby or is pregnant? Of course that's not true, but it certainly may seem that way — especially when you're working hard to conceive. It may help to remember that there are many other couples who are trying just as hard to become pregnant.You may find some comfort (and valuable insights) in sharing your story with them. Speak to your health care provider about local groups, and look online for support communities.

The person above me had some really good ideas for you. I'd like too add that pumpkin seeds toasted are a great source of zinc. And, that helps sperm production tremendously. In fact, my fertility specialist even recommended that to me as well as a holstic doctor. As far as you red rasberry leaf is awesome! It's great for cleaning and detoxing and just keeping your reproductive parts well greased and working. Add that with nettle and oatstraw for calcium and iron and you have a nice healthy tea. Just use hot water over the loaves. Let it steep - I use a mason jar.

Instead of Clomid you can try Vitex. Do some research on it. It's a very powerful herb and you need to time it correctly or it will mess your system up. It can also be used to prevent pregnancy later instead of using birth control.

Life with a newborn is exhausting. It's usually impossible to get enough rest and exercise in the first few demanding months, and it's difficult to eat well. But as all-consuming as caring for an infant can be, it's important to take care of yourself too. Choosing healthy foods — and following a few simple eating strategies — will help keep you energized through your busy days and nights.http://www.infanthealthandsafety.com/
