I Want a Baby, But................ Posted: 03-25-05 15:05pm
I know there are a lot of woman out there
that can relate to what I am going
through. I really want a baby, but
getting prego isn't as easy as I thought
it would be. We have been trying for
about 10 months now, w/ no luck. It's
very stressful and depressing. I have
read so many things about what to do and
ways to help, but nothing seems to be
working. I have heard that it's a good
idea to lay down for about 20 minutes
after having sex? Well I guess what I
need is some advice and maybe to meet some
other woman that are going through the
same thing that I am.
Thanks

Yes, the nurses where I work say to lay
down for 20 minutes after. That's what
we have our patients do after artifical
insemination.
Are your cycles regular or irregular?

Yes, the lay down for 20 minutes after sex
is good advice, also try the missionary
position, it's a great position for
getting sperm to the destination!

Hi there,
my husband and I have been trying for 4
months now, possibly going on 5 months.
I've read so many articles, online info
and logged onto chat lines, such as this
one, to find out what is the best way
possible to become pregnant (other than
the obvious).
This month, i've been using the ovulation
kit. This tells me when I have lh surges
and when I will be ovulating and when is
the best time to conceive. I am hoping
that this month will be successful.
It may sound funny, but my husband and I
are way into getting pregnant. I mean,
two nights ago I was really tired, but it
was that time of month to really try.
So, even though i'm exhausted we're both
into trying whatever and whenever it takes
to get pregnant.
Often, I too would be depressed and
saddened when my period arrives. But,
with high hopes and faith, it'll happen
soon.
Were you on the pill, and for how long?
I just got off the pill in dec 2004 - and
I heard it may take up to a year to get
pregnant. If after a year you're not
pregnant, then go see your physician.
They'll maybe help you better determine
when you are most fertile (and keep track
of each period you have.)
hope this helps - and not to be selffish,
but when speaking all of this, it kind of
motivates me to have high hopes.
Good luck!

Try standing on your head after. I tried
for a year with my second child, then I
stood on my head and it worked! I am
trying now and am using the Dr. Jonas
method. Check it out, it might be
helpful!!
