Preparing your body to conceive is as important if not more important than the actual act of trying itself.
The reason for this is if your body's system is not in balance first, all your efforts can be for nothing.
This can then lead to frustration which can further hinder your chances of getting pregnant.
Therefore please follow these basic steps which can help prepare your body the journey ahead.
Vitamin A This vitamin is important for both the man and the woman.
For the woman, getting the right amount of vitamin A will help the woman's body produce the correct amount of cervical mucus.
In a man, if there is a deficiency of vitamin A then this can reduce the sperm count which for obvious reasons will decrease your chances of conception.
Timing There are two opposing opinions about when you should have intercourse.
Some say you should forget about timing and instead just make love when ever you feel like it and things will happen naturally.
I however, feel it is better to concentrate your efforts on doing this around the woman's ovulation time because it is the only time when you can actually conceive.
Also, it means that the act of trying doesn't start turning into chore.
Getting fit and Weight Loss Don't panic, I'm not talking about necessarily going on a crash diet but more about making sure you're eating the right type of vegetables and cutting down on fast food.
Food such as sweet potatoes, carrots, spinach, potatoes, yellow fruits and fish oils can all help increase your chances.
As for fitness, you don't have to put yourself under pressure to join the gym or do 10 mile jogs, just try and work a small walk or two into your daily routine.
The saying "little and often" applies well here.
If you're lucky enough to own a Nintendo Wii, then the Wii fit is also a fun way to get exercise and lose weight.
Fun in the morning It has been medically proven that the man's sperm count is significantly higher in the morning.
Although it is understandable that there may not be much time in the mornings as you might have to get up for work but considering you are both probably waking up in the same bed, I'm sure it won't be too hard to arrange to wake up a few moments earlier.
Who knows, it may even put a spring in your step for the day if nothing else.
