WHat do you do/take to give you a better chance?


As the title says really, what things do you do or what do you take to boost your chances? I don't really do much (I don't think) other than:

1) OPK to find best time to BD
2) Try to BD just before and during OV (but this is obvious really!)
3) BD with me on bottom!
4) Stay on my back for at least 30mins - all night if I can (and not go to the loo after BDing)

Other than that, I dont think I do anything else!!

What do you do? I want to give some other ideas a go. Does taking any herbal / tonic type things help??

Cheers x

Eat healthily, exercise, take vits and supplements, BD every 2 days (or daily) pretty much through the 14 middle days of my cycle (or try to anyways!)
Will be using CB OPKs this month and 2nd month of pre-seed.

This month I only BD twice, as nearly missed ovulation, I had very little EWCM also.........but was being very prepared for next month and was armed with:

Preseed
Basal Thermometer and various charts
Evening Primrose oil
Green Tea

+ Folic Acid which I have been taking daily since start of TTC

I got my BFP this month, the one month I thought it would never happen, and hadnt stressed as was sure I couldnt possibly be pregnant.....

So I would have to say trying not to stress and trying to relax, is just as beneficial as the above and other vitamins etc...

Hi

I take a pre-natal supp, vit c with zinc, fish oils (because that helps lots of

things) and chastberry supp (to help with regulating cycles).

Have also got preseed incase I should be able to pin point exact ov, and OPK

and microscope. Although trying not to use opks and microscope too much as

it makes me obsessive and down hearted when I don't get clear readings. Of

course regular BDing (2-3 days)

Also under a reflexologist who specialises in fertility to add to my chances.

What a nightmare, didn't realise I was doing sooooo much!!!

Hope this helps
