Over the years I have had 2 miscarriages and a stillbirth, but I also have had 4 healthy babies and I'm 24 weeks pregnant.  You should discuss with your doctor the circumstances of your miscarriages and if s/he feels there is something else that needs to be done in order to prevent one in the future.

No it's best if you use a basal body thermometer...you can get one for around $8 at walmart.

Some people are more fertile than others.  What I said was not meant to mean that you WON'T get pregnant having sex so often throughout your cycle, but by concentrating on the days around ovulation will optimize your chances.

It would be a good idea to start taking a prenatal vitamin that has folic acid in it.

As for foods, I don't know, I've never bothered with diet changes (btw I've been pregnant 8 times)

Excercise is fine so long as you aren't over exerting yourself.  

I've never found any specific positions to be more conducive to getting pregnant but I'm others will disagree.

Have you done anything like charting your BBT or using OPKs to pin point your ovulation?  Typically on a 30-31 day cycle you should ovulate APPROXIMATELY on day 16-17 but this can vary widely from woman to woman.  By using BBT charting you can pin point exactly when YOU ovulate in your cycle and can focus on ensuring you have sex around the time of ovulation.  If you have sex every day or every other day throughout your cycle you could be lowering his sperm count by the time ovulation comes around therefore reducing your chances that one of little swimmers will reach the prize.  BBT charting can also help you become familiar wth the changes in your body and signs that your period is coming or that ovulation is approaching.

It really depends on the person.  But it stands to reason that nature would make it that way given the fact that having sex around the time of uvulation could lead to pregnancy which is the intened purpose of your cycle.
