While attempting to conceive, couples should have sexual intercourse several times per week. Unfortunately, ovulation cycles may shift from time to time. Having sex frequently throughout the month not only increases the chances of conception, it also helps strengthen the emotional connection between a couple. You are much more likely to become pregnant by lying of your back for at least twenty minutes after your partner has ejaculated.
Getting the proper nutrients, and plenty of them, by eating a healthy diet is another step in the right direction. The age-old advice of eating lots of fruits and vegetables, lean meats, and whole grain foods definitely applies; replace white bread, rice and pasta with brown. There are specific vitamins and other nutrients contained in certain foods, which can help prepare your body for pregnancy. Folic acid, a vitamin needed by both mother and baby, can be found in vegetables such as broccoli, lettuce, spinach, cabbage, and kale.
It is very beneficial helping with fetus growth, and can deter debilitating birth defect such as spina bifida. Certain breads, common household breakfast cereals, and even multivitamin tablets usually have folic acid. You can get your protein, and also iron, from various beans, lean beef, and even beets. Crucial nutrition found in these foods helps your body maintain increased levels of iron. If you do not have proper iron level in the blood, your ovulation could be adversely affected due to the overall ovarian wellness.
Dairy products, seeds, nuts, whole grains, yeast, shellfish, and lean beef help maintain the health of your body's eggs. Higher calcium intake is also a must, especially if you've been trying to become pregnant for a year or more. This will not only stimulate fetal growth, but it can also help combat your depressive mood.
