How to Get Pregnant – Health Tips
*Chemical Overload– if you or your partner are exposed to poisonous chemicals, hazardous substances or radioactive materials at work, at home, or in any environment that you frequent, you may want to think about doing all that you can to stay away from poisonous environments (even if that means quitting your job). Many commonly used chemicals can affect the fertility of both of you, and the development of your baby once you conceive. Chemical remains can be transported from the workplace into the close environment of the pregnant woman, and can still cause problems, even if she hasn't been directly exposed to the chemicals themselves.
*Time for a check up– set up an appointment with your doctor once you have made the decision that you want to get pregnant. Discussing your plans with a medical professional and having a medical check up will give you the opportunity to ask lots of questions and also ensure that you are in the best possible health for conception.
*Drugs and Medicine– if you are taking any prescription (or non prescribed for that case) drugs, be absolutely sure that you fully disclose all medicine and drugs to your doctor. It is vitally important for you to know that anything you are taking is going to be safe for you and your baby to continue taking once you have become pregnant. Note that there are lots of medications and drugs that can reduce your fertility levels and reduce you ability to get pregnant, while there are others that may be harmfull to the growth and development of your baby once you are pregnant.
*Friendly Environment– make your vagina as sperm friendly as possible. Avoid using any vaginal sprays and scented tampons (which cause PH imbalance). Also avoid artificial lubricants, vegetable oils and glycerine (such as maybe found in soap, as these all kill sperm). Avoid saliva and douching because these substances can also kill off sperm by changing vaginal acidity levels
How to Get Pregnant – Further tips to help you become pregnant
*Keep a detailed fertility cycle calendar or daily log– keeping track of your mentruation(start and finish dates), expected ovulation time (usually around day 14 of a 28 day cycle) and other relevant information can be really helpful and useful in your journey to conception and birth. Having a detailed log, means that you are able to provide useful information to your medical prectitioner(should they need it), it also helps you to know your fertile period, as well as figuring out the date you conceived and therefore your due date. *Cervical Mucus Check– If you are monitoring your cervical mucus to figure out when you are fertile and ovulating, ensure that you do your checks of the vaginal mucus before you shower, bathe or swim. Exposing your cervical mucus to water can affect the quality and quantity of cervical mucus before you test it.
*BBT (Basal Body Temperature) for Conception– you can fortell your fertile window by keeping a written record of your waking temperature changes during your monthly cycle. If you do decide to use BBT as a method of working out your times of ovulation and fertility it can be a good idea to use a digital thermometer (as it is more precise).
