Determine The Gender Of Your Baby

I heard you guys were thinking of trying for a tot. That’s excellent news! I heard of some excellent ways to increase your fertility naturally to provide you the best probability of conceiving with no outside help. Even if you do require the treatments, I think these ideas can truly help to make the treatments more successful as well. Here are some ideas:

· Learn how to identify when you are most fertile. If you want to get pregnant you need to know when is the best time for intercourse so you want to know when you are ovulating. You’ll also get better at knowing when to anticipate ‘that time of the month’ – which will help you to note when you’re late! More often than not you can check when you ovulate by measuring your temperature immediately as you wake up in the morning. After keeping track of these figures for about 3 months you’ll be able to judge when you are ovulating because your waking temperature (or basal body temperature) increases at this time. Your body has other signs to show when you are ovulating. For example, your cervical mucus goes clear and elastic like egg white.

· Have lots of sexual intercourse.

· Assume the position. Different sexual positions allow for differing degrees of penetration and so certain positions are especially good for getting pregnant. When you’re trying for a little one you should stay away from positions where you are sitting or standing, because gravity will be working against you. Try the missionary position or have him enter you from the back for the most successful deposits. There’s an old wives tale that says that holding your legs in the air for half an hour after sex can help – feel free to try!

· Take prenatal vitamins. Vitamins will provide your body what it needs to optimize your baby making equipment. Also, when you do get pregnant you can be positive that you will have provided your baby the best starts possible because of the extra folic acid and all that.

· Have more sex.

· Eat healthily If you’re trying for a little one then you need to watch your weight. If you’re overweight your estrogen levels will be elevated and if you’re too thin your body might stop ovulating. Find a healthy diet and stick with it.

· Have even more sex.

· Get fit. People don’t understand what a strain it can be for your body to grow and carry that little one for nine months. It’s best to get fit beforehand. Just don’t work-out too much because then your body might stop ovulating.

· Avoid toxins. That includes giving up alcohol, caffeine and smoking which are all proven to affect fertility negatively. It’s also good practice for when you do conceive! Some medications also reduce fertility, or can affect your little one so check with your doctor if you’re taking any chronic medication.

· Stay away from briefs. Guys, tight underwear can reduce your sperm count or damage your sperm because it just gets too warm down there. Even sitting at a desk all day could be damaging so make sure you take frequent breaks to walk around and cool them spermies down.

· Relax! In spite of the fact that we keep hearing differing ideas about the links between stress and infertility, we all understand that stress strains your system and can lead to depression – neither of which is good news for fertility!

Attempting to increase your fertility naturally can only benefit you in the long term. These ideas should help you conceive naturally but if you don’t they will definitely set the scene for a healthy pregnancy, a healthy baby and a healthier you!
