I'm Currently Feeling: | New TTC Method??? Girls,
I was looking around and was reading the Sperm Meet Egg plan, but then another link took me to a better "plan" as stated in the website. I dont know about its name but it seems to make sense so here it goes: Quote:
The sperm meets egg plan a little pressurised so what about trying something different?
It is proven medically that sperm quantity gets diluted if ejactulation is too regular. Out of 100,000,000 sperm at each ejactulation only 50 - 100 reach the egg to be fertilised - Why dilute to 50% on the second day and then by another 50% on the third day after a positive ovulation test???
Also, no ovulation kits are needed (saves money!) or measuring your temperature every morning either (my temp is all over the place!) as this I found to be really disheartening and sometimes inaccurate.
Here goes:-
Firstly, total your cycle lengths by days. Also, in case you didn't know the first day of your cycle is the first day of your period - not spotting it must be a flow!
Secondly, divide this number by the number of months you have been trying this will give you your average cycle length. Any half days round upward!
You normally ovulate 14 days BEFORE your period NOT after and bearing this in mind you can mark on a calendar the date you should be ovulating month by month. Have sex every other night for 10 days according to the following 5 days before your average ovulation day and 5 days after.
NB. (If you have an average cycle length that is over 40 days increase the days before your average ovulation date by two each way so it will be 14 days.)
Therefore, the sperm isn't as diluted at your ovulation time and you are pretty much guaranteed to catch your ovulation no matter how irregular your cycles. | Quote: Another piece of information for you.
ORGASM BEFORE HE DOES OR AT LEAST AT THE SAME TIME!!!! Do not do the quickie 'thank you for your deposit' roll on roll off when you are TTC.
Our vagina's PH are naturally acidic and acid kills sperm. When we orgasm we release fluid and more CM which is alkaline and this neutralises the acid and brings the vagina to an approximate neutral PH. Sperm love, thrive, live and swim longer in this environment!!! | Quote:
FOLIC ACID = maximum of 400mg per day only unless you are statistically more at risk of a deformity like Downs Syndrome or brain and spinal defects. (If you are more at risk - speak to your Doctor who may prescribe upto 10 times more!)
In normal cases taking more than needed increases a small risk of deformity in your growing baby as folic acid is put into most types of bread and some other readily eaten foods due to Government Legislation!
CALCIUM & VITAMIN D = around 50% daily recommended allowance if you drink dairy and eat dairy. If not take 100% RDA. This is extremely beneficial to you to prevent bone disease when you hit menopause and over but also for a new pregnancy and growing baby. The growing baby takes calcium from where-ever it can during pregnancy from teeth and your own bones so make a reserve now while TTC. Take it with your folic acid every day!
COD LIVER OIL / EVENING PRIMROSE OIL / OMEGA 3 CAPSULES - check the ingredients. DO NOT take them if they are bonded with VITAMIN A as too much Vitamin A can cause your growing baby to have deformities. Do not take a Vitamin A supplement at all unless prescribed from your Doctor!
| It said that the lady who posted it had fertility problems and was TTC for 9 months and it worked on the first try!!
PS: Will try it when I will be TTC again!! | |

| i think what it means is if you ejaculate every day there are less sperm per squirt. if you wait for every other day it accumulates a bit so more sperm per squirt. they start to go down in quality if they are not 'replenished' after about 7 days | | | | Status: Offline

Yup this is true.
The sex every other day ive read before and does make perfect sense but the adding up cycles and dividing just seems to be a numbers game, no scientific proof in it. Just my opinion.. | | | | Status: Offline
