My husband and I are hoping to start a family. We are trying to understand the best ways and timing to conceive a baby. What general advice is there for couples trying to get pregnant?
The most effective way is to identify your fertile days and have regular intercourse then. If you've been trying for over a year, it's best to consult a fertility specialist for basic tests.
We just tracked my ovulation cycle using cheap test strips and kept trying on those specific peak days. Have you started tracking your period cycles yet?
It can take a few months, so please don't lose heart. Focus on a balanced diet, start taking folic acid after consulting a doctor, and track your ovulation.
