I agree with Nic4charles.... I had been trying for a year, and when my husband and I took Robitussin before we did the deed, we conceived immediately. Worth a shot. The decongestant thins out your body mucus.

I got pregnant with my 2nd when I stopped trying. I obssessed about it for 7 months, and finally gave up, and it happened the very next month.

An intensive care nurse told me that if you take the cold medicine Mucinex when your ovulating, it thins ALL of your mucus...making it much easier for sperm to penetrate the egg. I was already pregnant, so personally I never tried it, but she said she knew of a few people that it worked for. But I wouldn`t go od`ing on mucinex!! lol.

I used a $20 First Response OPK to conceive both of my daughters. It only took about 2 cycles for each of them. However, we were also BDing every other day of the month even when I wasn`t ovulating. So, every other day, plus, many times a day when ovulating. And, people will laugh, and I have absolutely no idea if it works, but I do the legs up on the wall thing afterwards :P

I also did what YogaBaby did and I took extra supliments, but no luck for 3 years. Then I said it is enough I am not doing it anymore. My DH got us each a qaud bike to do adventure trails on weekends for fun and is strated to become a hoppy. Still aways noticed when ovulating and onwards but never made a big deal out of it and voala, I eventually got pregnent the moment we started to have fun with other stuff. Good luck and lots of sticky conceiving dust for you!;-)

I also agree to relax, one other thing I forgot, I also had 2 accupressure appointments, one a week before ovulation and one about a day prior to, which I think really helped keep me relaxed and my body felt great. Treat yourself well and stay happy.

I had DH take a zinc supplement as well as a multivitamin high in folic acid, we also had sex in the morning since sperm count is known to be higher in the morning. I tracked my temps and used OPK`s to know when i was ovulating and we spaced at least a day between BDing. I also was taking Evening Primrose Oil, Low Dose Apirin, a Prenatal and an Omega Supplement Daily. I have no idea which, if any of those things did the trick, but something worked.

Have sex ;)

The best advice: Relax. Track only a month or two to determine your cycle and when you ovulate. The week you ovulate, have sex every other day. The most important thing though is to relax...I know it`s easier said than done - I`ve been there....but it`s true. Stress really affects your body.

Stop trying :P that`s how my aunt got pregnant after ten years of ttc. Or you could get really drunk, that`s how my friends in high school got pregnant. But seriously, I got pregnant by tracking my ovulation with an ovulation microscope and checking cervical mucus. I did not use a OPK because it was too expensive to keep buying a new one every month and was difficult to decipher. Some people will say have lots of sex, but when a man ejaculates, it really does draw on his store of good swimmers so you should wait until you know you are ovulating to have sex and then space the sex by at least one day for him to replenish his swimmers.

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
