Pregnant Preparation Tips

BUY SOMETHING SEXY

Some experts say that if a woman is highly aroused while she's having sex, the sperm has a better chance of fertilising her egg. Others say it makes absolutely no difference. It definitely won't hurt and may even help in boosting your libido and killing that awkward feeling of having sex for pregnancy.

POSITIONING YOURSELF

Many experts suspect that the missionary position (man on top) provides the best opportunity for getting pregnant, though no definitive studies have been done on this question. This position allows for the deepest penetration which deposits sperm closer to the cervix. For additional effectiveness, the woman can try elevating her hips with a pillow so her cervix is exposed to the maximum amount of semen. Avoid woman on top, standing, or leaning positions, which discourage the flow of semen to the uterus.

FOR THE MAN

Ask your partner to chuck all briefs and opt for boxers instead for a healthy sperm count. Also, having sex in the morning would help since the semen has the highest number of sperm then.

FINALLY...

If you are under 30, and haven't conceived in 12 months, you should make an appointment to see your doctor as there could be some issues at play that are preventing you from getting pregnant. If you are over 35, and haven't succeeded in getting pregnant in six months, make an appointment to see your doctor, as infertility issues become more prevalent the older you get. If you are over 40, then do not delay in getting medical help.
