Take a vacation and destress.

Make sure you have an orgasm (helps pull the semen into your cervix).

Drink lots of wine.

This is what worked for me both times!

Download P Tracker app (with flower on it) and have sex and days leading up to your "flower day".

Lay flat at least 15 min after to help move sperm back.

Drink lots of regular milk.

Good luck OP!


Is this for real??


I'd actually heard before that too much exposure to semen can make your body start rejecting it (in the same way I guess that too much exposure to pollen can make you increasingly allergic)


Nope. NP here. Actually, oral exposure to semen is an excellent way to build tolerance (avoid immune issues) and prevent pre-eclampsia. No joke, there are peer-reviewe studies showing this!

I used softcups, took mucinex, used preseed, and put my knees up the month that I conceived. That was my cycle of doing everything. Apparently it worked.

My Mom always put a pillow under her tush for 15 minutes or so, and she made four babies pretty easily. I tried it too and conceived three times (even if I lost all the pregnancies). I'm doing it again this time around.

This post has inspired me to pull out all the stops this month as well. Thanks!

McFlurries the day after sex - helps the (hopefully) fertilized egg "stick."

I would have wanted to smack someone if they'd said this to me when I was TTC.....but when it happened for us was when we quite literally 'gave up.' Booked a trip to the Caribbean, another to Europe, another to the Cape (none of which we could have done on the roller coaster TTC ride). Threw ourselves into our careers. Exactly one month later (and a year to the day after the first of 3 failed IVF's), we conceived DC. I'd been drinking til it was pink, too, btw, and eating every and anything I wanted because I had 'given up.'

DC is turning 9 next month and we still tell the story of how "God laughed" and I got pregnant when I basically turned it over and turned it off .

Good luck!

The original PP of that post. It was a very very uncomfortable moment when she volunteered that information. .
