Ttc

You might want to look into Fertlity Blend. I was on it for 27 days and ovulated for the first time since November! HTH!!!

That's an ovulation calculator. Put in the first day of your last period and it will tell you the days you are most likely to be fertile.

iVillage has tons of great articles on the subject. (I would suggest reading up on cervical mucas and symptoms of ovulation.) My husband and I started trying in August and just found out the other day I'm pregnant.

Good luck!

Hi N., we are also ttc. We have 2 now. I am also a nurse. Vitamin b and evening primrose will help but you should also increase the amount of folic acid in your diet as it is a vital part of cellular development. It is essential to cell growth and stremgth. Start taking over the counter prenatal vitamins which are high in the vitamin and increase your dark green leafy vegetable. Good Luck to you.

Hi N.,
I haven't read anything specifically about vitamin B. But have you looked on the web md website. My husband and I are TTC # 2 as well. They have alot of great resources on there. As well as a detailed ovulation calendar. Good luck!

I have heard of two things ...

rasberry extract

stop trying ... relax ... go out and have a goodtime and a couple glasses of wine and then hae a party in your bedroom!

Tried to have our first child for over two years with no luck, bought a ovulation predictor kit, a computer type monitor where you pee on the stick, and within three months, we were pregnant. I'm not using it for baby #2, ttc, but it helped me learn about all the cervical mucus and the mid cycle cramping that means ovulation. Since I'm aware of my body, I'm going all natural and relaxing this time. BUT, you should get results with the kit! Try e-bay for a good price. Good luck, but I agree with the other ladies, just relax!!

As silly as this sounds, the way I got pregnant, along with some other friends, is stop trying. If you think about it too much, it just doesn't seem to happen. Also, try to figure out your body and menstral cycle. You should be able to feel when you are ovulating, and obviously that is the best time to try. Good luck!

Give it time. Supplements are wivestales. Try the ovulation sticks and chart your cycle. I got off the pill in June. I really wasn't "trying" got pregnant last month.
I took prenatl vitamins prior to me getting pregnant. good luck

i know prenatal vitamins will help. You also might want to just relax. You are putting stress on your body and you will never get preg. like that. Just sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride. You will be blessed sooner then you think. Just start taking the vitamins.

N.,

My advice is to read up on some of the signs of ovulation and listen to your body. I remember reading that breast tenderness can be a signal that ovulation is or is about to occur. I used to let that put me off because it was uncomfortable and the ovulation chart said it wasn't the right time, but I listened to my body and now I have a beautiful baby girl as a result! Good luck to you and your husband...and remember...part of the fun is in the trying!

No idea how old this is, but I just wanted to say I feel your pain. People can be so insensitive if they have not struggled with extended infertility. I had baby #1 in 2 months, but now we're trying to conceive #2 and it's taking a long time. It's been 12+ months now. I'm not stressed, but I am sad and down. I do plan to try EPO this next cycle. It's natural and it's got the go ahead from lots of midwives. Personally, I'd trust a midwife over my OB any day. Babies are ALL they do. They know their stuff and they are genuinely interested in YOU. Another thing I'm trying is monthly full body massage. I had no idea how great it would make me feel. I could just feel the tension falling away for days after my first massage. I am also going back to my chiropractor. Being out of line can screw up your fertility stuff down there. Get your body and YOU as healthy and happy as possible. That will be a great start for a new cycle!! Don't let people get you down! Take control of your body and your fertility. You can do it!

try checking out www.mymonthlycycles.com and www.fertilityfriend.com it might help to know when you ovulate. you record your cycles and your symptoms, and (gross...but also your cervical mucous). plus there are links to forums where you could chat with other girls in the same boat...good luck =)
