How can I get pregnant ?

I recently got off birth control and my periods has been irregular, although it does look like it's trying to get back on track it hasn't. I been having sex without a condom before and after birth control, but the problem is why can't I get pregnant? Please help me

My husband has super sperm so we literally slipped up three times. We have a son, I have had a miscarriage, and I'm preggo with #2. But I've heard elevating your hips for 15 min after sex will help and also having sex around your ovulation date

I had an IUD for five years I got it taken out and got pregnant with this baby two damn weeks later! Just keep trying you never know when it'll happen! Good luck!

I went to the Dr and she said if you're ttc to take prenatal vitamins for three months before getting pregnant and it will reduce the chances of birth defects also buy ovulation kits. I'm going to ttc til January and I'm going to lose weight and workout more and eat healthy. I'm going to try to get my body prepared for the baby.

i was on birth control for 5 years when i got off of it, we weren't preventing or anything and i ended up pregnant the same month i quit taking it. some people it can be months or years to get pregnant after birth control, others like myself it can happen instantly. i know it took my mom quite a few years to get pregnant with me after she had quit taking birth control. it just varies, but of course try the ovulation kits or talk to your doctor about it and make sure everything is going good in there. good luck to you both though.

You can buy ovulation kits to help with when your ovulating then have sex around on one that day. What I did I had sex every other day for a whole month. Yes its a lot but we really wanted a baby lol and when I thought I was ovulating we had sex every day for almost a week. It only took that month and I got pregnant.

I got off birth control I'm December. I hadn't had a period since January but got pregnant in may. Sometimes I guess it just takes time. How long were you on it and how long have you been off of it? I was on the pill 5 years and took 5 months to conceive.

My hubby and I tried for over a year to get pregnant. I started taking a multi vitamins daily and within 2 months I found out I was pregnant. Vitamins will also lowered the risk of your baby having a birth defect. how long have you been trying?
