Ok,have some more questions but please no one judge me.Me and my boyfriend would really like to get pregnant.I had misscarrige three weeks ago.I was wondering if anybody knew of anything I can do to improve my chances?I dont smoke,i dont drink I excercise reugulaly.I eat healthy,am the correct weight for my height etc.Is there any supplements I can take to increase my chance? Is there anything I can do to increase my chances?
Now heres the second part of my question,my boyfriend smokes cannabis on a regular basis.Im worried that because he does this that is the reason I misscarried before? Will him smoking this effect our chances of conceiving again? Any information would greatly be appreciated.

First of all, how old are you? Why dont you just get married before having a baby?

But anyways, yes.. You can take folic acid supplements to help ya. Also, having sex with man on top or from behind will increase your chances, and putting a pillow under your butt after sex and sitting there for a while after will help. If at all possible lol, if you orgasm after he 'goes' in you, it helps.

Im not sure if your bf's smoking affects anything, but he should stop anyway, its not a very mature thing to do especially if youre about to start a family!

Hey
Thanks for replying but you shouldnt really be judgeing my boyfriend.He has been smoking cannabis for quite some time and assures me he will quit soon.The reason he smokes it is because he has trouble slleping at night and finds this a way to help him sleep.I am 25 years of age and as for marrying I do not see the nessesaty (excuse spelling) to marry yet but this is our plans anyway.

Heres a Few Pointers
There are many different supplements you can take to help your chances of conceiving. The most important is folic acid. If you haven't been trying to long, you may just need to give it some time and not think about it. However, if you have been trying over a yr. You may have a problem. There are supplements you can take to fix these problems also. Ovulex is a all natural supplement that has many different herbs that help to prepare your body for pregnancy. However, your bf's smoking can cause you to not be able to conceive. Studies show it affects their sperm health and if you do succeed in conceiving while he is smoking it can cause you to lose it to miscarriage. Keep trying and don't lose faith! It'll happen :d good luck!

Hi first of all folic acid has nothing to do with conceiving it just helps prevent neuro-tube defects like spina bifida. And it doesnt matter what postion you use either. The best way is to use the basel body temp. And find out when you ovulate.Your temp. Usually rises when you do. You are most likely to get pregnant during this time. Remember too that sperm can live 48 hours or more, so even if you havnt ovulated at the time of intercourse it is still possible to become pregnant within the next few days.Most of all relax and dont have sex to have a baby. Your body when stressed out will release hormones to prevent pregnancy have fun trying and good luck Laughing Exclamation Exclamation Exclamation

Yeah i'd have to agree about the smoking lowering chances. They say it can lower sperm count.

smoking pot can and will affect your mans sperm count.....I'm not saying this bc I judge him....It's his choice and his life. I don't judge those who smoke bc it's safer than drinking...Anyway...It will reduce his sperm count!


Picture this...Little spermies trying to get to the egg..But they are too high to make the journey...They stop just outside the cervix to catch a bite to eat...And wham! It's too late. The egg is in the uterous...Unfertilized lol.
