Ridiculously Stupid Hints and Tips for Falling Pregnant??


So i'm just wondering if anyone else has been giving suggestions on how to assist in falling pregnant??
I don't mean the crappy cliche of 'relax'...... I mean someone seriously offering advice like my GP who told us to "eat a bag of onions a week to improve sperm count"......... seriously!!!????

I don't know of any. But I'll ask around at Tesco while I am buying onions....

That is a really weird one!

We've told so few people we're even trying that there hasn't been much room for crazy advice (thankfully!)

My mother told us to eat beef. She seriously thought the reason we didnt have a baby yet is because we dont eat beef steaks

I am pleading the 5th on this one but I will say that some of the most insane things I have heard while in TTC and LTTTC, I heard on this board.

I've not heard any mad crazy suggestions - probably because we haven't really told anyone of our troubles. Although I did hear something about eating lots of dairy if you want to conceive a girl ...

Didn't you know that you should 'do it' everywhere - the stairs, kitchen table etc etc = someone's MIL
So get out of the bedroom and get busy around the house or outside even!
