Try to relax and enjoy BD'ing at all times of the month not just when you 'need' to - dont want it to spoil your sex life.

Well, my best piece of advice?

Temping and charting so you know your cycle better.
Keep fun as much as possible, try not to make it a chore.
As silly as this sounds (and I'm sure a few people won't agree with me) but try and relax a little about the whole process. It can be stressful and worrying, but just try and remember that too much stress is never a good thing. Some is natural, but if it takes over your whole life, then that's not good either. (Ok, really have to take some of my own advice! ) No seriously, it may not (or it may, you never know) happen right away and you can't start stressing about it if you're not pg in a month.

Two bits of advice.

1. Don't expect it to happen too soon, prepare yourself for a long wait, and if the wait is shortly - then bonus!
2. Learn to know your body, record any signs and changes so you begin to know what is happening before it happens
