We are trying to conceive for around 10 months now. I want to ask moms and pregnant mothers out there who have difficulty getting pregnant at first but finally succeeded in bearing a child via NATURAL WAYS ... Which have you found effective? Or please enumerate them if you`ve done many things to succeed in getting pregnant...

Ladies that I have known were probably too tense to get pregnant. One of them got married at 20 years old a tried to get pregnant for 8 years. She gave up after that and guess what she got pregnant. She had identical twin boys. I know another lady that tried so hard to get pregnant that she got really stressed. She and her husband went on a relaxing holiday when she would not think about getting pregnant. Funnily enough without even trying she conceived whilst on vacation. I thin trying to get pregnant after a happy event can work if is the the fertile time of the month. I suggest thinking about position, timing and relaxation. I conceive in the summer months because the hot weather makes me feel happy and relaxed. I got pregnant in July with my first, August with my second and amazingly September with my third. My baby is due in late June 2009. Good luck.

Thanks for those straight answers. Well, my sister also advised me to go home and take a vacation for a week or two. It`s funny that those who seemed to lose their interest gets pregnant fast. Maybe having that ``I should be pregnant this cycle`` attitude makes it harder for me to conceive. I`ll be sure to follow that advise. Thanks again!!!

Hi there. Don't worry about that. For our case, me and my husband will be celebrating our 2nd year wedding anniversary this month of July. Our plan for this year is to have kids, just like you. We have been planning this since last year, so by this time around we will be visiting regularly our OB and ask what preparation are going to do to be ready for conceiving maybe this year. Our doctor gave us some multi-vitamins to take and to regularly visit her office and to monitor my follicles also. Some test are been done to me like the pap smear, ultrasound, and blood test to check if I have thyroid problem or something.Coz my ob said that if someone have a thyroid problem, it will affect your pregnancy. Also my husband has undergone Sperm Analysis to make sure that both of us are healthy and ready for pregnancy. I advise you to visit your OB and ask what other options do you want and ask your doctor if you will have to take some tests. Goodluck and Baby Dust to you!
