Trying to Conceive!! - Tacoma,WA

Try laying on your back with your knees bent comfortably. Tilt your pelvis towards your head like you r doing one of thoes funny lower abb + butt exercises. That is 12:00o'clock Bring your pelvis back to normal then tilt it away from your head towards your feet. That is 6:00. Bring it back to normal resting then tilt it to the left, 3:00. Back to normal then the right 9:00o'clock. Back to normal. Then start back at 12:00 This time take it in order and try not to skip a clock. So do 1:00 and 2:00 then three and four all the way around and back up to 12. You'll feel stuck or tight in some of these positions. These are the ones that u need to work on. Keep doing this until all seem loose and reachable. This worked on one of my friends she was overweight some too. She lost about 10 lbs and then started these exersices the one week later she concieved.

I know this sounds like everthing you have probably heard before but....quit trying. Don't check your calander for your period days and don't try and have sex the third day before your period on the full moon. All this will do is drive you crazy wondering why you have not gotten pregnant yet. Just go and enjoy making love to each other.After I told my doctor we were going to try and get pregnant that if nothing happens right away the longest to keep trying without doctor adcive is 2 years. So you still sound like you have some time left but it never hurts to talk to your doctor. Good luck and I hope you get your christmas whish.

hi M.,i know what you are feeling, iam in the same boat ,had two miscarriages and a lovely baby boy who is now two.i had a miscarriage just last april then i was not able to try for almost 6 months coz of some reasons.iam 35now and iam scared that what will happen to next pregnancy hope everything will be fine.iam planning to buy a fertility moniter,i know how to cahrt the temperature as well but my child just keep me moving in the night
for bbt charting you need tohave a 6 hours of sound sleep,check the temperature at the same time + - 1/2 hours.and draw a base line, remember there would be a dip before ovulation and thats the best day to concieve.when the temperature goes up the ovulation is already happened and now chances of conception is minimul.
i actually developed a very good charting system for bbt i wud have itsome where taht covered all aspects along with cervical conditions.if you need any help pls ask

go to a obgyn hon!! that is what doctors are for! there is a lot of those fertility doctors and found out what is the problem. stop guessing who is fault is it>
good luck!

try the tempature method when you wake up in the morning and temp is higher than 98.5 that is when you are ovallating.Hope that it works for you all

I advise you to go to an OBGYN. Depending on the type of birth control you were useing it may take awhile. I was on the shot for only 6 months that is 2 shots. It landed me into the hospital and after that me and my hun tryed for 18 months solid to get a baby. They say that the hormone can stay in your body for 18 months to 2 years. It was driveing us both crazy and we actully started to think about invetro. Thank god it did not come down to that. Anyway I had abnormal cycles after the shot. I also started gettign overian cysts, that hurt like hell, that caused me not to ovulate at all. I thought that you could only have a cycle if you ovulated but I was wrong. I also thought that you could not ovulate with out a cycle and I was wrong there too....I concived my daughter in october a month that I did not ovulate....The doctors thought that I was a month farther than I was when I had to go get an ultrasound at what they thought was 13 weeks when I was actuly only 8 weeks...Funny thing is it happened to my friend also. I do hope you do go to a doctor because if there is something wrong,and I will keep my fingers crossed that there is not, they can give you some alturnitives to natural conception. GOOD LUCK!

Hi M.-
I can understand your frustration. My husband and I tried for 18 months before we finally conceived. My cycles were all over the board. I started charting using fertilityfriend.com I was able to print my charts and talk with my OB/GYN. Because I was still under the 30 year mark, she wasn't too excited about any fertility drugs. However, she gave me one cycles worth of progesterone pills and I conceived my son! You could try the progesterone cream for several cycles and see if that helps. And you are over the 30 year mark so talk with your OB/GYN. Best of luck!

First, both of you should see a doctor to find out if there is any medical reason why you are not conceiving. Then, a fertility specialist if you need to. Also, for information and support, contact RESOLVE, which is a national infertility organization. They helped me so much when I was trying to get pregnant..I attended a support group for women going through the same thing, and it helped so much. Also, tell your man not to worry about being too old...my husband and I were 38 when our son was born, and he still had (and has) the energy to do all those fun things you want to do with your kids. One thing about having kids later in life...it keeps you young! Good luck and God Bless!

Hi M.,
I'm a 36 y.o. with two children from a previous marriage and I am also trying to conceive. I had a tubal reversal in April, conceived on my third cycle, miscarried at 8 weeks,and have now had four more cyles hoping to finally be on track and conceive again. It is a frustrating process. Can I ask, have you done everything possible that you can think of to be in the best of health? No smoking, no drinking alcohol, reducing your caffeine intake,lots of water, etc.,etc. The only time I have tried to be healthy was when I was trying to conceive,and even that was questionable. But I now have a way to be in the best of health without following a strict diet and trying to consume the recommended 9-13 servings of fresh raw fruits and vegetables which we need for optimum health. It's with JuicePlus+; my whole family takes it,and I truly believe it will help me to conceive and have a healthy, uneventful pregnancy especially at the age of 36. You can visit my website at www.juiceplus.com/+dl40646 and see if you think it might be for you. Good luck and God Bless.

you've GOT to check out the book "taking charge of your fertility". There's a website too,and I'm sure you'd be able to find out about classes(if you'd rather do that than read the book), and/or a councelor. But it'll be well worth it to check it out.
