Just started TTC!


Hi,

me and hubby just started TTC.
I got my implanol out a few days ago and wanted to ask if you guys have any advice on how to speed conceiving.
This will be our first baby and I'm pretty new to the whole topic.

Any kind of advice would be helpful.

xx

Welcome sweetie!!!

First of all id say get to know your body and how it works. Pay attention to your cm and how it is when you are ov'ing. Secondly, pin point when you are ov'ing as that is key-obviously, lol! You can do this by temping/charting, using opk's or a clearblue fertility monitor.

Start taking prenatals now. There are many good brands and Tesco's does a cheap one at £3.99 (months worth) for example.

Join a site such as mymonthlycycles.com as it gives you a chart of predicted days of fertility (when to bd basically) and ov based on your previous af. Its free and a great way to keep track of symptoms, af's etc.

The main thing is to ensure there are spermies already waiting for the egg upon ov, so bd before you ov. Everyday, every other day, which ever, and on ov day and after.

Apart from the regular advice like dont smoke crack etc, lol , caffeine is said to be not so good when ttc, so lower your intake or switch to caffeine free.

Dont use any lube, normal ones that is. They're sperm killers apparently. Also, look into getting hubby to take folic acid and vit c. There are several other vits you can take depending on your cycle or luteal phase.

My final advice would be to try, try not to get obsessed with the whole process as its easily done and then the whole thing becomes anything but fun- which it should be Dont worry if it takes longer than you initally think- its normal.


oh, and i wanted to add, sorry if you already know all this and im preaching to the choir, in which case just stick with the 'dont get crazy' advice, lol... and i really like the cbfm..I dont need to do anything else really. Get them cheap on ebay!!

Phew, thats all i can think of right now, lol!!

Good luck, chicken!!

, Omi xxx
