Tips For When You Are Struggling To Conceive A Baby!
Most people when trying for a baby expect that they will get pregnant straight away after they stop using contraception. But unfortunately life isn’t like that, and it can often take longer than people want. In reality, the average couple can take four or five months to create a new life. 95% of couples end up getting pregnant within two years of trying. It can feel like the end of the world when it doesn’t happen straight away for you and your partner. But it will happen for you both soon. Here’re some tips for when you are struggling to conceive a baby!
Eat better
One of the best ways to conceive a baby is by living a healthy lifestyle. If you are overweight or obese, it might be prolonging you getting pregnant. You need to make sure that you are getting your five-a-day. And try to drink more water during the day. If you are eating unhealthy meals, you are less likely to get pregnant. Cut down on takeaways and try and stick to healthy food choices. It’s best to get your body prepared for going through pregnancy so losing weight is the perfect way of doing this. Remember that it’s not just you that could be causing the delay in making a baby. Make sure that you get your partner to eat healthy too. You should both exercise together, as you can both encourage each other to get fit.
Talk to your doctor
You should speak to your doctor if you have been trying for more than a year to get pregnant. They may do some blood tests to see what’s going on with your body. They may want to check your partner’s sperm to make sure everything is okay. If you are not ovulating enough, they will be able to advise you. They could potentially put you on fertility drugs to help you get pregnant. If it doesn’t work, they may look at other methods such as artificial insemination. They will help you to have an understanding how artificial insemination works.
Check when you ovulate
The best way to get pregnant is to make sure you are having sex while you are ovulating. It can increase your chances of making a baby. There are so many ways of calculating when the time you are ovulating will be. You can check your temperature, and even buy a kit which will tell you if you are.
Keep relaxed
To increase your chances of getting pregnant, you should be staying relaxed and not stressed about it all. The more you worry, the more of a chance you won’t conceive. Try and talk to a friend, or your partner about your concerns. You will be surprised how much quicker you will get pregnant when you and your body relaxes.
