The Best Way To Get Pregnant -- Stop Sex From Turning Into A Job!

When hopeful parents are trying to find the best way to get pregnant, too often they come to think about intercourse as... well, a job.
This transpires by accident. Initially, things go along as they always have. You take pleasure in your sex life, but with the extra pleasure of possibly bringing a child into the world!
But when conception doesn't happen, the pressure is on... and the spontaneity suffers.
Many of us have come across films during which the female protagonist is trying frantically to get pregnant, and turns into a copulation commando, complete with gear (calendars, thermometers... ) and her mission cry: "I'm ovulating! Move in here and do your task, soldier!"
This is meant to be comic, obviously, and we have a good snicker... since it is mainly accurate. For many couples, this is exactly what happens.
All of a sudden, instead of being spontaneous or carefree, lovemaking turns into a scheduled chore on the to-do list. Instead of being a shared, passionate encounter, it turns into a methodology... a way to make a baby.
And when getting pregnant comes with difficulties, the additional stress and demands of wondering what the difficulty could be, of taking your temperature and timing ovulation and all that fun (and crucial) stuff, just makes the sex feel even more like a job that needs to get ticked off the list.
But take note: the more you can let the constant worry go and take pleasure in intercourse, the faster and easier conception will be. Is this easier said than done? Yes indeed it is. When you are trying to conceive, you're on high alert. And it's not an easy affair to just lock that off and just have fun.
So what can you do to help keep your sex life spontaneous... and get around you feeling like a baby-making machine and your guy feel (as one of my male friends put it) like he's a sperm ATM?
1. Schedule Date Nights
If you are tracking your ovulation cycle, then you probably already comprehend that the right times for conception are prior to, throughout, and right after ovulation. As an alternative to planning sex for these times, set aside special date nights instead. Make a pleasant dinner, or venture out and do something fun together. When intercourse comes about, it will happen more openly and spontaneously.
2. Discover Something New Together
Consider that scene in the film Ghost, with the two main characters at the pottery wheel... Okay, I'm not saying you should go out and master the arts... but learning and practicing a new pastime as a couple can help relieve tension, and also will help create more familiarity and closeness. Perhaps you've always desired to understand how to give a pleasant sensual massage, or cook French food. Discover things you can gain knowledge of together, and that will turn into more unpretentious, enjoyable lovemaking.
3. Experiment
Okay... trying to get pregnant is an amazing time to also add some pizazz to your love life. Treat yourself to some novel lingerie. Talk about your fantasies. Experiment with new toys. Look at this time as a perfect chance to become more powerful, emotionally and sexually, as a couple.
The more that you like your intimate life, the more relaxed it will be to start a routine that doesn't feel like a routine. And the less strain that's involved in intercourse (and life in general), the higher your likelihood is to get pregnant. It is furthermore a great deal simpler and easier to get pregnant when your partner has a high sperm count... and frequent intercourse helps men build up a considerable sperm supply. And are you aware that female orgasms actually help you get pregnant as well?

Hi! I’m Judy, a freelance writer and mother of three.
I struggled with getting pregnant (due to fibroids and a few other issues), and I know how stressful and frustrating it can be to want the most natural thing in the world — to be a mother — and yet try as you might, never seem to get there. I got frustrated watching all of my friends getting pregnant, while here I was trying and trying, and… nothing was happening.
Finally, in my mid-thirties, I was able to conceive with the help of Chinese medicine and other natural infertility treatments, as well as learning more about my own body, how it worked, and what my natural fertility cycles were. Perhaps most importantly though, I learned how to relax, stop beating myself up, and be patient with myself.
My hope is that women, like you, who want to become pregnant but may be having trouble, can come here and discover tips and techniques for getting pregnant easily, and natural ways to take charge of your fertility and (if needed) treat any fertility problems in a gentle, healthy way. Becoming a mother is the most wonderful experience in the world… it shouldn’t be source of stress. My wish for you is that you enjoy your journey to motherhood, and treat yourself well along the way. I hope I can help!
