It is never too early to plan for your pregnancy. It is important for your body to be in good physical condition before you try to conceive.

Your chances for a successful conception increase when you eat right, exercise regularly and treat your body responsibly. It is important to cut out all substances that could be harmful to your unborn child, such as smoking, drinking or drug use.

It is also important to have a basic understanding of how the female reproductive system works. Without this knowledge, it is difficult to pick up subtle signals from your body that can help you to predict when you are ovulating or when you have achieved pregnancy.

Is Getting Pregnant After Ovulation Possible?

Filed Under Main Content | 1 Comment

More and more couples who have been practicing birth control with the help of the rhythm method feel totally flummoxed when they suddenly find themselves heading towards unexpected parenthood!

Were they not led to believe that getting pregnant after ovulation was not feasible? Then how did this happen?

The answer is very simple. Each woman’s menstrual cycle is different from the other. So the released egg is very viable and has chances of getting fertilized within 12 to 48 hours if it comes in contact with a sperm. Of course, this does not happen with everybody since each woman is again different in this regard. So then, is getting pregnant after ovulation possible? Yes, it definitely is!

To explain this is in greater detail, let us take an example. The couple has indulged in sexual intercourse on a Sunday. The woman begins ovulating on Tuesday. Since sperms are able to survive in a woman’s body for up to five days, there is every possibility that if one of them were to come in contact with the egg (provided it is still viable), conception is going to occur.

So the sperm is the deciding factor where getting pregnant after ovulation is concerned! If the egg is not viable, this does not occur.

Earlier, women were advised to indulge in coupling just a few days prior to ovulation and continuing till the actual day of ovulation. Today, quite a few doctors express the opinion that sexual intercourse before, during and after ovulation will give positive results.

They even go as far as suggesting that three days of sexual intercourse during the week would ensure getting pregnant after ovulation! Going in for sex every alternate day is advised because the male body must have time to build up the supply of sperms.

Even medical experts have come forward with changed views. They believe that the period after ovulation is the best time to conceive. It is difficult to predict the exact date of ovulation and how long the egg is going to remain viable as each woman’s body is different. So getting pregnant after ovulation is a more believable theory today.

Another factor to be considered is that the time of ovulation can vary in the same woman’s body, month after month. She is not able to foretell the exact date of her menstrual cycle. Even women who have had systematic and regular periods all their lives might find their bodies misbehaving some time or the other!

This is because various factors come into play to delay the normal ovulation period-ill-health, excessive stress, indulgence in too much of physical activity and so on. Thus, there is hope for disappointed couples yet-getting pregnant after ovulation is a reality!

When Did I Get Pregnant? Find Out For Sure

Filed Under Main Content | 1 Comment

How will you know that you are pregnant? Below are some of the clues and pregnancy basics, so that you can know for sure that you are pregnant. However, please note that pregnancy differs from one woman to another. The symptoms may be less intense or more severe.

The pregnancy symptoms may occur for a short while or for a long time. They may happen often or they may be rare during the entire pregnancy period. Keeping this in mind, read these important pregnancy symptoms.

Symptoms Of Pregnancy

Missed Period: This is the most important symptom of pregnancy. If you miss your menstrual period, you can be reasonably sure that you are pregnant. However, some women may experience a lighter menstruation instead of none at all.

  • Intuition: Many women get a gut feeling when they are pregnant. This pregnancy symptom is important, as a women’s intuition is usually right. You usually know that you are pregnant, when you are!
  • Tenderness Of Breasts: Breasts and even nipples become more sensitive during pregnancy. A feeling of soreness in the breasts persists. In addition, some women may find their nipples darkening.
  • Tiredness: Fatigue is also a pregnancy symptom. You find you feel like going to sleep earlier at night. You may sleep longer in the morning. A little exertion will tire you quickly.
  • More Visits To The Bathroom: Frequent urination is a pregnancy symptom. Though annoying, it might continue up till you deliver your baby. It happens because your swelling uterus puts pressure on your bladder.
  • Nausea And Vomiting: This pregnancy symptom may start within a week of your getting pregnant. Nausea is also known as Morning sickness. However, this sickness usually stops when you enter into the second stage of pregnancy.
  • Dizziness And/Or Fainting: After a little exertion, you feel dizzy or you might even faint. This happens because of low blood sugar. Your baby inside you needs nutrition, so you have to eat more.
  • Craving/Dislike For Food: You find that you start wanting to gorge on some foods. Alternatively, you might stop relishing some foods you liked earlier.
  • Sensitivity To Smells: You find your power of smell has increased. You can sniff out odors, not noticed by others. This happens because of the increasing estrogen in your body.
  • Heartburn or Constipation: Your growing uterus pushes against other body organs, including your stomach. As a result, digestion slows down.
  • Mood Swings: You become more irritable. All this is because pregnancy is changing hormones levels in you.
  • Low Back Pain: This is an important pregnancy symptom. The growing uterus changes your torso- legs balance, leading to low back pain.
  • Implantation Bleeding: You may bleed a little when the fertilized egg begins to implant or move into the uterus. This happens 3-6 days after fertilization. The bleeding is little with pink spots. This does not happen in each pregnancy case; hence it is not a reliable pregnancy symptom.

Please understand that knowing pregnancy symptoms is important to be well informed. To ensure that you are pregnant see your doctor.

Thereafter record your pregnancy week by week and maintain good pregnancy health. Only to know that you are pregnant is not enough. Once you are, you have to nurture your pregnancy to give birth to a healthy baby.

Getting Pregnant With The Law Of Attraction

Filed Under Getting pregnant-Law of Attraction | 1 Comment

It’s pretty hard not to notice the attention “The Secret” has been getting in the last months.

But what is all the hype?

It’s all about the “Law of Attraction”, an age-old Universal Principle that determines what is or isn’t in our life.

How does it work?

That’s the secret everyone is talking about.

What does this have to doing with trying to conceive?

Well, for someone who has been seeking fertility and it hasn’t happened yet, the news is good.

If you are a woman trying to get pregnant you may not even realize that you’re activating the Law of Attraction all the time.

If you are not activating this Universal Law in your favor, then infertility may be what you are facing.

That is the simple version.

Here are a few things to ask yourself:

If you have more worry, doubt and fear about getting pregnant; or find it hard to trust that you will be able to get pregnant and birth a healthy baby, then you have infertility active in your system.

If you feel greater amounts of despair when you start your monthly menstrual cycle, then you have infertility active in your system.

If you’ve failed IUI’s, IVF’s or have had miscarriages; or feel like you’ve exhausted your options in conceiving, then infertility is dominate and active in your system.

If your marriage or partnership has become strained as a result of you trying to conceive, then infertility is active in your system.

If you’ve been told that you have PCOS, poor egg quality, or that you are too old; and thus feel determined that you’re doomed, then infertility is dominate and active in your system.

I could go on, but I think you get it. Here is my point.

You MUST turn infertility off, in your system.

And then turn fertility on (physically, mentally, and emotionally).

Wouldn’t it be amazing if you could just turn fertility on like a light switch? Well that’s what I’m talking about here.

I believe it’s time to turn on your fertility. Are you with me so far?

Experience has shown that a woman diagnosed with “infertility,” focuses on infertility.

The problem with focusing on infertility is that the Universal Law of Attraction teaches that what we focus on becomes evident in our reality, every time.

Therefore, focusing on infertility activates infertility in the system.

This is science, not fluff.

This is what everyone is talking about, including Oprah.

It doesn’t matter which conceptions methods are being used…IVF (in vitro fertilization), IUI (artificial insemination), Clomid, or natural conception methods, — individually or in combination.

It doesn’t matter if a woman has had one or more miscarriages.

It doesn’t matter if she’s been trying to conceive for 6 months or 6 years.

What matters is that there are very specific things she can do to set the Law of Attraction in motion to work in her favor and get pregnant.

“I started to realize that being in alignment with the Law of Attraction isn’t a luxury, but a necessity. Your book put me back on the path of my intention and now I’m pregnant!”

Let’s use a garden analogy and break this down into several steps. If you were going to plant a 6×6 raised garden bed, most likely you would do the following:

1)You would assess the soil and add deficient nutrients into the soil. This is analogous to the health of your own inner (physical, mental/emotional, and spiritual) terrain.

2)You would pull out all the weeds. This would be the step analogous to noticing the focus on infertility.

3)With healthy soil and the weeds pulled, you would then plant your seeds. This part is your intention to getting pregnant and birthing a healthy baby.

4)Then you would water at regular intervals, ensuring that weeds stayed pulled. Meanwhile the sun, soil and water are causing the seeds to sprout and grow. This is the part of Law of Attraction that can sometimes be the hardest. Keeping the weeds pulled (focus on infertility) and the plot watered (focus on fertility).

This is how life grows, we as humans are no exception to this rule.

This Law of Attraction step is vital in optimizing the chances of getting pregnant.

3 Secrets-How To Get Pregnant

Filed Under Main Content | 1 Comment

A healthy baby boy or girl is just not the result of egg meets sperm. There are three critical things that needed to happen for conceiving and carry a healthy fetus to full term.

Secret No.1 Avoid old eggs and sperm Research indicates that to produce a healthy, viable fetus, you need freshly released egg and sperm. This means that you should avoid having sex a couple of days before ovulation is due, as sperm can last up to 3 days. A three day old sperm may have degraded somewhat and be potentially defective. Likewise, you should avoid sex just after ovulation, when the egg is still viable (up to 24 hours after release) but again is ageing and potentially defective.

The best approach is to have frequent intercourse during the peak fertile time, and stop once ovulation is over, so that a fresh sperm can meet a fresh egg. Ideally, live, fresh sperm should be lining the fallopian tube ready to fertilize an egg when it is released. The best way to do this is to have sex the day before you ovulate. This means that if you ovulate on Day 14, then you should have sex on Day 13 and 14 and then abstain on Day 15. This will help ensure healthy sperm are present in your Fallopian tubes, ready for the egg to be released. You should also avoid having intercourse for 3-5 days prior to day 12, to build up a high sperm count. Continue to have intercourse every day or every other day until you are sure that ovulation has occurred. Once ovulation has occurred, again abstain for a couple of days. This reduces the risk of an ageing (and potentially defective) egg being fertilized, which is likely to result in a miscarriage.

Secret No.2 Build up your Partners sperm count prior to getting Pregnant There are techniques that men can use to build up their sperm count, so that the day before you ovulate they are able to deliver the maximum number of healthy sperm. For men, this means 3-5 days of abstinence (sorry guys, no ejaculation at all). Any longer than this and you risk sperm ageing prior to ejaculation.

There is also some ancient yoga, or Tantric Sex practices that can build up sperm count even further. In the 3-5 days of abstinence, research shows that several sessions of extended foreplay, but with no ejaculation, can build up sperm levels (but beware of frustration levels!). Repeating this process over a period of time can increase sperm quality and quantity.

Secret No. 3 Don’t try to conceive if ovulation occurs on day 17th or later This is the most important part of the secret. Not applying this part of the Secret is a major cause of miscarriage. Once you understand it, you will be able to recognize which cycles would result in a viable fetus, and which cycles would result in a miscarriage. Temperature graphs van be used to determine the timing of ovulation. During your monthly cycle, basal (or body-at-rest) temperature changes and when you ovulate, the production of progesterone increases. Progesterone is the hormone released by the corpus luteum, the “crater” left behind after an egg has been released. Progesterone production causes a small (0.5º Celsius or 1º Fahrenheit) rise in basal temperature. So you know that the day your basal temperature increases is probably the day you ovulated. However, ovulation could have occurred up to 3 days before the temperature increase.

The optimal time for ovulation is day 14 or earlier, when the chances of producing a viable fetus are about 90%. If you ovulate on day 15 or later, the chances fall to 43%.

This part of the secret was not very well known. Regular late ovulation decreases your chances of getting pregnant. You ovulate less, statistically, and the endometrial lining is not optimal anymore to allow implantation. Late ovulation also results in a higher risk of miscarriage, as the older egg may be defective, and the aging corpus luteum may not be able to produce enough progesterone, which is the hormone that prepares your uterus for pregnancy, and prevents you from getting your period.

I am quite sure that by following these three simple and easy secrets which are not known to most of the couples, the chances of getting pregnant will be quite higher.
