laurenjennifer (727.3 days ago) 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.
res (727.4 days ago) 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.
nic4charles (727.5 days ago) 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.
rosye13 (727.5 days ago) 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
LKDream (727.5 days ago) 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!;-)
ArcticArlz (727.6 days ago) 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.
ArcticArlz (727.6 days ago) 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.
MamaTex (727.6 days ago) 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.
Lookalike (727.6 days ago) 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.
