Conceiving!

Hello all!!!! I'm sure many people have asked this and I'm not seeing what exactly the question I'm looking for.

My husband and I are trying to conceive a child, I would ask family but we want to make it a surprise when/if I do become with child. I've asked my best friend but of course she's had two kids and with little to no help. (She's also conceived her first child at 22 and her last at 25). I am now 28 ( my husband is 32) I exercise every other day, eat pretty healthy, I drink lots of water and I'm currently taking Biotin and Prenatals / multivitamin with Folic Acid of 800mcg. My cycle is usually what my tracker tells me (that I have been using for over 2 years) that I'm 28 days. I'm supposed to ovulate on the 30th and have been fertile (again from what my tracker informs me) for the past 3 days. We have had sex every single day (sometimes twice) since my last period which was ended on the 18th of March.

I've heard Primrose is good for fertility and I'm taking all of what I think the steps are to conceive. I know it's too early to really ask so many questions. But I'm a person that likes to be knowledged about things I'm about to do or am thinking of doing. Bottom line is I like to be educated, and sometimes you can't always find and look up in Google for personal experiences.

Thank you!

Sincerely, wife and husband wanting to grow their family.

I know this sounds weird but if you stop trying to get pregnant you will more than likely end up conceiving. It usually works for alot of people

Try adding maca to your diet, pill or powder. It increases fertility.

Try not having sex every day and tracking your ovulation, not just relying on the calendar, using something like the test strips etc. Then when you should ovulate, sex the day or two before, day of should be good.

Good luck
