Tricks to Get Pregnant

If you are ready to conceive or haven't had any luck getting pregnant, don't pressure yourself by thinking it has to happen now. Try following these simple tricks to get pregnant. However, if after six months of trying and you're still not pregnant, consult a fertility specialist to determine the cause of not being able to conceive.

  1. Stop Using Birth Control

    • Women who want to get pregnant should stop taking birth control. Make an appointment with your gynecologist to discuss going off birth control. Once you stop, your cycle may be irregular for a few months, but it will return to normal. When your cycle is normal for at least three months, you may then start trying to conceive a baby.

    Monitor Ovulation

    • There are two ways women can determine if they are ovulating. The first way is counting days. Determine when your next menstrual cycle is due. From that date, count back 12 to 16 days to determine the range of days that you should be ovulating. You can also use ovulation kits to determine when you are ovulating. Once the ovulation kit detects ovulation, pregnancy is possible during intercourse.

    Cuddle After Intercourse

    • After intercourse cuddle with your partner. This not only helps with bonding and prolong the experience of lovemaking, but it also helps the sperm to travel through the cervix. This increases the chances of sperm fertilizing the egg. Cuddle and lie in bed for 10 to 15 minutes before getting up or going to the bathroom. Getting up right after intercourse can cause semen to leak out.

    Don't Overdo Lovemaking

    • You may think that making love three times a day will increase your chances of getting pregnant, when in fact it can lessen it. Some men deplete their sperm count after numerous ejaculations, so the sperm has to build up. Try making love once a day or space the time between intercourse. Have intercourse in the morning and then again in the evening, especially during the times of ovulation.
