Tips that worked for getting pregnant

If we try again I'll incorporate that right away, although of course it could have been a coincidence.

Lol I had to check the date on this because this was me with my first. Fast forward and its been 3 years trying for a second and no dice. OP, please trust me when I say fertile people will say that one thing was the thing that worked, but the only thing you need to do is make sure you’re hitting the fertile window. Get some OPKs and have sex when you’re ovulating. If you’re fertile, you’ll get pregnant, with or without headstands and preseed.

The #1 thing op is to track your cycle, use ovulation tests correctly to know when you’re ovulating and have sex a lot during that time.

At 23 it still took my sister a year to conceive her first. Second worked on first try at 28. My mom would joke that it took them that long to figure things out.

DP but probably savings aggressively for the child relaxed them and facilitated a conception.

Tried for six months with OPKs and tracking everything. Second IUI worked, but we also added presses and sex two days before ovulation trigger (had to abstain for a certain amount of time for the IUI sample), then sex the night of the IUI and day after. Basically covered all the bases. Insurance paid almost all of the IUI so we are glad we started right at 6 months of trying.

1. Drink a bottle of wine and have a drunken conversation with your husband that goes "We should have another baby"
2. Have sex without birth control
3. Wake up the next morning and go "What were we thinking? That's insane!"
4. Feel funny
5. Take a pregnancy test
6. Try to think of a name for your child other than Oops and "what were we thinking?". Laugh weirdly when your husband suggests naming her Chardonnay.

I always heard sex every other day was the magic ticket.

Arvigo Maya Uterine Massage. I visited a great massage therapist and she basically massaged away my fibroids within a year. I had my second after years of secondary infertility. https://arvigotherapy.com/arvigo-practitioners/
