{There are certain things you can do to increase your chances of getting pregnant according to experts.}
Assuming you nor your partner have a known fertility problem, these tips below will help improve your chances of getting pregnant
{{1. Know your cycle }}
Understanding your cycle will help you better understand when you are most fertile. Ovulation is the best time to get pregnant.
{{2. Have regular sex }}
Experts recommend you have sex every two to three days if you are seeking to get pregnant. This ensures you don’t miss out on your most fertile time as sperm can stay in a woman’s body for up to 72 hours.
{{3. Avoid strenuous exercise }}
Working out is good for a woman preparing to get pregnant as it helps prepare the body for the demands of pregnancy and labour but strenuous exercises can interfere with ovulation. Avoid strenuous exercises if you are seeking to get pregnant.
{{4. Lay in bed for 10 to 15 minutes after sex }}
Laying in bed for at least 10 to 15 minutes after sex without going to use the bathroom should be encouraged if you are seeking to get pregnant as it ensures sperm going to the cervix gets to the cervix.
{{5. Quit smoking }}
A woman seeking to get pregnant should quit smoking as smoking reduces fertility. According to experts, smoking or even passive smoking can affect a woman’s chances of getting pregnant.
{{6. Start trying for a baby early}}
Modernization has made more women hold out until their thirties and forties before starting a family. There’s a gradual decline in fertility when a woman is in her 30s. The decline is sharp after age 37. Avoid leaving it late before trying to have a baby.
{{7. Maintain a healthy weight }}
You should strive to maintain a healthy weight if you are trying for a baby. Being overweight or underweight can reduce a woman’s odds of conceiving.
{{8. Reduce your Caffeine consumption}}
According to the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, consuming four cups of caffeine daily has been linked with a decrease in fertility in women.
