As someone who was incapable of falling pregnant for four years I know how it feels to be trying, month after month and finding everything you are doing is not working.
It has such an emotional impact on your relationship, and can tend to overwhelm all your waking thoughts. I remember how I felt when friends around me fell pregnant, many were reluctant to tell me of their great fortune. There were thoughts of making appointments at a fertility clinic, but then I became pregnant.

I will advise of some of the things you need to do to increase your chances of getting pregnant, including the big one, the secret womens business, and three babies later I guarantee that it worked for me.

Please, before the stress of this ruins your relationship or begins to make you feel bitter and resentful, and before you spend a lot of money on fertility treatments, please consider some of the points below.

Women also secrete a fluid at this time, closely resembling egg whites in look and texture. It is clear and sticky and if you feel it it should have a stringy elasticity, like gum when on your fingers.

To help measure the approximate time you are ovulating, purchase an ovulation kit from your pharmacy. This is a urine based test that measures levels of hormones that a women is secreting at this time.

There is another method of using a thermometer to measure your temperature, as a womens temperature rises at the time of ovulation. If you are interested in the particulars of how this works, as it can become quite scientific, research fertility books.

2)Go With The Flow

Stop trying so hard. When dates and times and routine intercourse are overriding your thoughts and life, stop. If both you and your partner are not aware of any medical problems
