Hi!

I am really sorry nobody has replied to your post yet! When trying for a baby, it is important to not focus to much on sex for the purpose of having a baby. If the focus is constantly on trying you will find yourself becoming stressed. There is a few factors I would like to add onto this advice.

A) Ensure you are having sex all round your cycle, even thought there is only so many days in a month you ovulate, sex is important when maintaining a healthy relationship.

B) I would recommend downloading a period tracker as these have an ovulation tool (Will tell you when you are fertile) Having sex 24-48 hours before Ovulation also may help as sperm stays inside for up to 48 hrs therefore if there is sperm waiting to fertilise an egg this is a bonus! (But don't worry if you miss this! There is still high chances of getting pregnant at any point during your fertile window)

C) I would recommend taking pregnancy vitamins as when you do fall pregnant, these will kick start a healthy development

D) So you know when you are ovulating (Although not essential) I would go on amazon a purchase a pack of ovulation tests, cheap ones work as well as expensive so don't waste money. This way you can pinpoint your fertile window.

Finally, getting pregnant can take time. I believe the NHS will refer you to a specialist fertitlity sector once you have been TTC for 2 years (I believe). Ensure you are staying healthy!
