How to Get Pregnant Quicker

September 2nd, 2010 roy Posted in Pregnancy No Comments »

Do you want to know how to get pregnant quicker? You can get pregnant quicker by being in possession of certain key facts how to lead a healthy lifestyle, when your fertile days are and any vitamins you should be taking.

To get pregnant quicker you and your partner must be in tip top condition physically and must lead a healthy lifestyle. Eating a nutritious, well balanced diet before pregnancy ensures that your body has an adequate supply of the vitamins and minerals it needs. Such a diet would include regular meals with at least 5 portions per day of fruit and vegetables for vitamins and fibre, lean meat and fish for protein, starchy foods such as potatoes, whole grain cereals and pasta and finally dairy foods such as milk and yogurt for calcium.

The only pre pregnancy vitamin recommended for women eating a healthy diet like this is folic acid (one of the B vitamins). You need folic acid to reduce the risk of your baby being born with a neural tube defect such as spina bifida. Take 400 micrograms (0.4mg) of folic acid daily in addition to the recommended intake of 200 micograms (0.2mg) in your diet. Folic acid can be found fresh, dark green vegetables such as brussels sprouts, peas, broccoli and chick peas. Many breakfast cereals are also fortified with folic acid.

Stop smoking
and drinking and get pregnant quicker. This is also true for men as smoking and drinking affects the quality of the sperm. Get pregnant quicker by trying to maintain a BMI of less than 29 because being overweight can reduce fertility. There is a link between increased scrotal temperature and reduced sperm quality, so it might be a good idea for men to wear loose fitting underwear.

You can get pregnant quicker by knowing when you are most fertile in the month. The ovaries usually release an egg 14 days before the beginning of your next period. This is called ovulation. 2 3 months before you want to get pregnant chart how many days your monthly cycle is and watch for the emerging pattern. If your cycle is 26 days, you would ovulate on day 12 and you would be fertile 3 days before and 3 days after that day (.e on day 9 and 12 respectively). You can also get pregnant quicker by taking your temperature over a couple of months before you get out of bed in the morning. Your temperature will drop and then rise before ovulation.You are fertile for one day before your temperature drops and for one day after it remains elevated.

Keeping an eye on your cervical mucus can help to get pregnant quicker. It is time ot conceive when your cervical mucus is like egg white thick and stretchy looking.Having sex no more than once a day during your fertile period will help to get pregnant quicker as your partner s sperm count will remain high enough for fertilisation to occur. Have intercourse in the missionary position as this enables the penis to penetrate deep into the cervix and for gravity to help the sperm to the egg.

Killing off sperm however will certainly not get pregnant quicker so do not use a lubricant during intercourse unless it is a sperm friendly one such as Pre seed. You can buy this on line.

Get pregnant quicker by relaxing and enjoying this experience with your partner. Trying too hard can often have a negative effect on whatever we are trying to do. Look instead for areas in your life that are stressful and try to make them less so. Incorporate relaxation into your life in the form of massages, me time and other things you enjoy doing.

I sincerely hope that the information contained in this article will help you and your partner get pregnant quicker. Baby dust!

Implantation Bleeding During Pregnancy is Scary. Reassuring Facts About Implantation Bleeding

August 26th, 2010 roy Posted in Pregnancy No Comments »

What is implantation bleeding?


It is not unusual that some women experience implantation bleeding in the early stages of pregnancy. Any vaginal bleeding outside implantation bleeding of pregnancy is classified as a threatened miscarriage, meaning the pregnancy is threatening to miscarriage. About 25% of all pregnancies are actually miscarried but 50% of all threatened miscarriages settle down and a normal pregnancy happens.

When does implantation bleeding occur?


Implantation bleeding occurs very early in pregnancy as a direct result of the fertilized egg (your growing baby) burying and snuggling its way into the lining of your womb. Implantation bleeding occurs about 10-14 days after the egg has been fertilized or when conception occurred. This is also around the time when your menstrual cycles would be expected.

Signs of Implantation Bleeding:


Signs of implantation bleeding can vary from one pregnant woman to another. It normally mild in nature and is much lighter than a normal menstrual period.

The color of implantation bleeding:


The color of implantation bleeding can vary form bright red to brown implantation bleeding. Bright red implantation bleeding means that there is an active area of bleeding within the womb and blood is flowing from the site of implantation to the vagina very quickly. It may indicate that implantation has just occurred.

Brown implantation bleeding is the color of old blood. When you get brown implantation bleeding it normally means that when the fertilized egg buried it way into the womb, a little blood was released. The bleeding that occurred at the moment of implantation stayed in the womb for some time so by the time you see it on your underwear or when you wipe yourself it showed up as brown implantation bleeding.

How long does implantation bleeding last?


Most cases of implantation bleeding last for a few minutes to a few days. If implantation bleeding lasts more than a few days then it may be a sign of vaginal infection or a threatened miscarriage.

How heavy is implantation bleeding?


Heavy implantation bleeding is unusual. The only thing you might notice with implantation bleeding is a pinkish or brown discharge when you wipe yourself after you go to the bathroom.

Cramps with implantation bleeding:


Cramps with implantation bleeding can happen. You may even experience cramps with or without bleeding. The reason you may experience cramps with implantation bleeding is because as the fertilized egg buries into your womb, it caused the muscle of your womb to contract. These contractions press on nerve endings and may result in mild to moderate menstrual like pains for 24-48 hours.

What to do if you have signs of implantation bleeding:


Don’t panic if you have any of the above signs of implantation bleeding. Remember 50% of all cases of implantation bleeding end up in a normal pregnancy.

Know your blood type. Depending on your partner’s blood type and if you are a rhesus negative blood type then it may be necessary to have an Rh-immune globulin injection within 24 hours of any pregnancy bleeding.

If you suspect you may be pregnant and your bleeding is from implantation bleeding then do a home pregnancy test. This home test should remain positive. If it is positive and you do not know your blood Rhesus factor, then call your provider for consultation for possible Rh-immune globulin.

Never insert a tampon, douche, or have sexual intercourse while you are bleeding.


Keep track of whether the bleeding is increasing or decreasing and how many pads you are using.

If you feel your pregnancy bleeding is heavier or lasting longer than the above ranges then call your health care provider for consultation immediately.

Bleeding during pregnancy is scary. Your fear is picked up by your unborn child. Intra uterine fear can stay with your child for a lifetime, so constantly reassure your baby that he or she is wanted and loved.

Fatigue in Early Pregnancy, Can be Normal or it May be a Sign You are Nutritionally Depleted

August 8th, 2010 roy Posted in Pregnancy No Comments »

Is it normal to have fatigue in early pregnancy? Read on to discover why fatigue in early pregnancy happens and what you can do to make sure you are not nutritionally depleted.

Pregnancy is an amazing event in a woman’s life. No matter how long or how hard we study pregnancy we will never fully understand why women get so many very early pregnancy symptoms such as pregnancy fatigue.

From the moment of conception, the developing fetus needs lots of vitamins and minerals to ensure normal cell and organ growth and to prevent congenital abnormalities. As the developing fetus grows it also grows a living organ called the placenta, that allows vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, oxygen, nutrients, hormones and blood to cross from the mother’s blood supply to the developing fetus.

Mothers are givers by nature and during pregnancy they unconditionally and continuously give all their reserve nutrients to their offspring in an attempt to grow a healthy baby. Under normal pregnancy this is be a huge physical drain on the mother’s physical energy level and this is why pregnant women are given pre-natal vitamins.

Prior pregnancy many men and women are depleted in vitamins and minerals because of our lifestyles and the food we eat. Vitamins and minerals are essential in building healthy cells and organs. Many miscarriages are caused by abnormal eggs and sperms due to the lack of adequate vitamins and minerals in the cells prior to conception.

A body lacking vitamins and minerals is in a depleted state which can cause physical disease, irritability, depression and fatigue. The stress of pregnancy on top of this depletion results in a lot of pregnancy fatigue.

Pregnant women need more sleep than normal as when they sleep there is less physical stress on the mother’s body. Therefore sleep gives the mother a better chance of adjusting to all the demands of pregnancy.

It is very important as soon as you know you are pregnant to take vitamins and minerals, especially folic acid (600-micrograms) as folic acid helps prevent congenital abnormalities. If you are not already supplementing your diet with vitamins and minerals, then purchase some until you have an appointment with your health care provider.

Better still, if you are planning to get pregnant, start supplementing your diet with vitamins and minerals to make your body more nutritionally sound, reduce miscarriage risk and reduce the degree of fatigue during early pregnancy.

OK I have spoken a lot about vitamins, minerals and antioxidants and you may be wondering how could you be nutritionally depleted or even be tired if you already supplement. Well the truth is most people supplement with vitamins only and they supplement with a pill delivery system which has a very poor absorption rate. The best way to supplement is a liquid delivery system which has about a 95% absorption rate. Vitamins alone are not good enough, the body needs minerals for optimal health and minerals are necessary to absorb vitamins.

Constipation in Pregnancy & Constipation Relief During Pregnancy

July 30th, 2010 roy Posted in Pregnancy No Comments »

 Constipation in pregnancy can cause bloating, pain and even pre term labor. Read on to see what options pregnant women have for constipation relief during pregnancy.

Constipation relief during pregnancy is a question many pregnant women ask. Approximately half of all women experience constipation in pregnancy.

Why do women get constipation in pregnancy?


 The pregnancy hormone progesterone has a relaxing effect on the intestines and this slows the movement of the bowel causing pregnancy constipation.

The growing fetus needs as much vitamins, minerals and nutrients as possible. Therefore the increasing hormone levels of a pregnant woman cause food to move slower through the bowels. This results in constipation but also gives the body more time to absorb extra nutrients.

Pregnant women need extra water for the extra blood volume required for pregnancy. Therefore the mother will absorb more water from the bowel than normal which will result in a harder, dryer bowel movement resulting in constipation.

The longer food stays in the intestines, the more water is reabsorbed from the bowel into the body to accommodate for the extra blood volume required during pregnancy.

All prenatal vitamins contain iron which is known to cause constipation in pregnancy.

 Constipation relief during pregnancy:

Drink at least 8-10 glasses of oxygen rich purified water a day.

 Increase fiber in your diet such as whole grains and brown rice.

 Eat more fresh fruit and vegetables, particularly prunes (which can be taken via prune juice).

 Peppermint tea or peppermint water can help with gas or bloating pains.

 Try to reduce stress in your life as stress can cause constipation.

 You may have to switch you prenatal vitamins over to a different brand. Even though they all have iron, some brands may be less pregnancy constipating to you than others.

 Add a little more exercise to your daily routine. If you do not normally exercise then start with 10-15 minutes walking every day. If you routinely exercise change your exercise routine slightly to see if you can stimulate bowel activity.

 Mangosteen juice Mangosteen juice has been shown to have a positive effect on all systems of the body including bowel mobility. Mangosteen is a fruit and is very effective in preventing pregnancy complications.

 Consult with a homeopath for a pregnancy safe homeopathy remedy for constipation.Avoid over-the-counter laxatives as they can stimulate uterine contractions resulting in miscarriage or pre-term labor.

 Prevention of constipation is the best place to start. Many of my pregnant clients have experienced a constipation free pregnancy by taking mangosteen and minerals on a daily basis prior and during pregnancy. Mangosteen is present in different quantities in different products. Wondering where to get more information about a high quality mangosteen and mineral product? Mangosteen is present in different quantities in different products, so do your research.

 I urge you to act at once. Read for yourself, an amazing message for humanity from my son when he was seven-weeks old. Yes you read correctly, he was seven weeks old! I have the ability to communicate with baby’s emotions from inside and outside the womb. Read it! Enjoy it! Share it!

How to Increase Your Chances of Getting Pregnant

July 24th, 2010 roy Posted in Pregnancy No Comments »

A child is a gift from God. Unfortunately, not all people are given these gifts. Some couples do not get to have children while others had to wait a long time before they were given children. There are actually a host of reasons why women do not get pregnant. With the complexities of both the male and the female reproductive system, reasons for not conceiving are innumerable. But there are still ways to increase your chances of getting pregnant.

Some just can’t have children because of problems in the body’s functioning or hormonal imbalances while others are just not given the blessing of children even if they can bear children. And while there are ways to prevent conception, there are also ways to increase your chances of getting pregnant and ensure that the baby is on the way. Of course, these methods will only work when problems in the body are already resolved and both male and female are healthy individuals capable of producing children.

Below are some ways to increase your chances of getting pregnant and finally have a baby that you can call your own.

Visit a doctor

One of the most important things that you should do when trying to conceive is to make sure that you are capable of conceiving.

If you feel that you have been waiting too long for a baby, it is time to visit the gynecologist obstetrician to check what the problem is. Some women, it seems, cannot conceive because of the lack of certain chemicals in the body. These chemicals, hormones to be specific, are needed in order to develop the egg and to fertilize it. Often, to increase your chances of getting pregnant and to correct the hormonal imbalance, you will be asked to drink medicines.

Have vacations

Of course, no baby will be conceived if the couples do not even see each other for more than two hours in a day. This often happens with couples who are career-oriented. Oftentimes, they will see each other at night and frequently, they will have work inside their briefcase. In order to increase your chances of getting pregnant, couples should also make an effort to have quality time together.

If both have work, it is good to plan vacations every once in a while in order to increase your chances of getting pregnant, relax a bit and enjoy each other’s company. If you can, it is even better that you allot time every week for dates, wherein you can be together. You don’t even have to go anywhere special to increase your chances of getting pregnant. Just stay at home and enjoy being together.

De-stress

Stress is also another factor that inhibits conception for people who are healthy and capable of producing offspring. If you can’t help but be stressed out from work and all the other things that you do in your life, it is good to set aside a day in which you can relax and just lie in to increase your chances of getting pregnant. Have a spa. Have sauna baths. Enjoy sports. Delegate works that you can pass on to another.

Lead a healthy life

Although nothing has been proven yet, it is believed that alcohol, caffeine and nicotine can affect the reproductive system. It seems that these chemicals slow down the development and movement of sperm cells in men and egg cells in women.

As much as you can, lead a healthy and clean life to increase your chances of getting pregnant. Not only will this help you in conceiving a child, it will also ensure that you will pass on to your future children a healthy lifestyle.  

If you have tried everything to increase your chances of getting pregnant and found no success, don’t lose hope. Did you know that there are changes you can make in your life to solve fertility problems and increase your chances of getting pregnant, no matter how hard you’ve tried before?

Headaches During Pregnancy, are They Normal. Do You Know How to Ease Your Pregnancy Headaches?

July 21st, 2010 roy Posted in Pregnancy No Comments »

Headaches during pregnancy are very challenging as over the counter pain killers are not recommended. Read on to see what you can do to relieve the pain from your headaches during pregnancy.

First of all let’s address why some pregnant women suffer from headaches during pregnancy. Within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy the surging hormones play a part in the development of pregnancy headaches. The 40% increase in blood volume that occurs during pregnancy increases pressure within the blood vessels and this itself can cause pregnancy headaches. Headaches during the last month of pregnancy may also be caused by a condition called preeclampsia, which is associated with high blood pressure, swelling and protein in the urine.

It is normal to have headaches during pregnancy because of the above reasons plus the following:


Stress

Lack of sleep

Vomiting

Low blood sugar

Dehydration

Caffeine withdrawal

Nicotine withdrawal

Poor posture

Pregnancy related vision changes


What you can do to ease your pregnancy headaches:


Reduce stress.

Get more sleep.

Treat your early morning sickness.

Eat regularly to avoid low blood sugar levels.

Drink adequate amounts of high quality water.

Get chiropractic adjustments and advice to correct your posture.

Avoid over the counter medication especially during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy.

Consult a homeopath or an acupuncturist for treatments to relieve your pain.

Pregnancy headaches are sometimes relieved with either hot or cold compress around your forehead and on the back of your neck.

Have someone massage your shoulders and neck during acute pregnancy headaches.

Rest in a dark room and practice deep relaxation breathing.

Relaxing in a warm bath or shower sometimes reduces the stress and tension.

The fruit mangosteen is well known to support every system in the body. It is all natural and can relieve and prevent pregnancy headaches.


You tried all the above and you still have a pregnancy headache:


At this point it would be appropriate to call your doctor or midwife for advice.

Have your eyesight checked as you may need glasses or a change in glasses.

 If you experience any of these symptoms below with a headache call your physician or midwife immediately as these are signs of a severe pregnancy complication called pre-eclampsia:

Blurred vision

Right sided abdomen pain

Swollen hands and face

Sudden weight gain

Feeling very agitated or restless

 Pregnancy headaches can be very painful and very frustrating, as it is not recommended that you use over the counter medication during pregnancy. I have assisted pregnant women in the past to make their headaches a little more manageable or made them go away with a one on one coaching-healing phone sessions.

Many of my pregnant clients have experienced improvement of their pregnancy headaches by taking mangosteen juice. Mangosteen is present in different quantities in different products.
