To increase the chances of pregnancy, a couple must know the most suitable time for intercourse in order to conceive as well as the lifestyle changes they need to adopt in order to get pregnant. Following are some pregnancy tips they can follow to ensure that:
Note Menstrual Cycle
One of the most important pregnancy tips is to monitor the menstrual cycles. To give yourself the best chance for conception, have sex during ovulation. It occurs around 14 days after the last period. Nowadays, test kits are available in the market that help to find out the period of ovulation. To know the time of ovulation, a woman should note her body temperature daily because at the time of ovulation, it rises.
Right sex position
To get pregnant, watch the position for sexual intercourse. Woman on the top of her partner or having intercourse in a standing position should be avoided as in these positions the sperm is likely to flow out of the vagina. Use of scented tampons, vaginal sprays and artificial lubricants is not advisable as they can cause infections and remove cervical mucus. After sexual intercourse, a woman should place her hip region on a raised platform such as a pillow for few minutes to increase her chances of getting pregnant.
Healthy lifestyle
For having a healthy pregnancy, a woman must follow healthy lifestyle habits such as guidelines for weight and stress management, which include following a well-balanced diet. A balanced diet helps manage the proper production of hormones and therefore, it is beneficial for both man and woman. Intake of imbalanced diet or consuming excess of food rich in unsaturated fats can lead to a rise in oestrogen levels in a woman and similarly, diminish the man’s ability to produce fertile sperms. Such hormonal imbalances reduce the conceiving chances of a woman considerably.
Folic Acid
To improve the chances of pregnancy, a woman is advised to increase her intake of folic acid. Folic acid is naturally found in green leafy vegetables such as spinach, mustard greens, broccoli and asparagus. Beetroot is another natural and rich source of folic acid. There are folic supplements available in the market that can also be taken. However, it is always better for a woman to take medical advice before starting to take increased amount of folic acid.
No Stress
Stress management is crucial to ensure pregnancy. A woman, who wants to get pregnant, needs to be in a relaxed state of mind as that ensures the best fertility conditions for conception. Yogic breathing techniques can be practiced to shun stress or negative thoughts.
