Conceiving A Baby And Conception Positions
 Olinda Rola

Conceiving a baby successfully means understanding the best
conception positions, your monthly reproductive cycle and your
overall health. Conceiving a baby and pregnancy are wonderful
events that are complex but very satisfying and exciting. Here
are tips on the best conception positions and getting pregnant:


1. Know your fertile time - in general, ovulation occurs about
14 days before your next period begins. For women with cycles
of 28 days, that could make day #14 your most fertile for
getting pregnant (day #1 being the first day that your last
period began). If your have a 30-day cycle, day #16 may be the
best time to go for it.

2. Monitor your basal body temperature - the slight elevations
in your body temperature when you awake each day signal your
most fertile time. When conceiving a baby is the goal, use a
basal thermometer that is accurate enough to detect these
slight changes in your body temperature.

3. Monitor your cervical mucus - ovulation causes a change in
the appearance and consistency of cervical mucus. By checking
yourself each day, you'll be able to see the 'egg-white-like'
vaginal discharge that indicates ovulation and your most
fertile time for conceiving a baby.

4. The best of the conception positions is the missionary
position - the time-proven 'man-on-top' position works with
gravity to encourage semen flow toward the uterus that
maximizes the chance of a sperm uniting with the egg, causing
conception.

5. Use the rear-entry position - another of the conception
positions is the 'doggy-style', which allows your partner to
deposit semen close to your cervix.

6. Use the side-by-side position - again, this position allows
your partner's sperm to start their journey as near your cervix
as is possible. For all three conception positions mentioned,
after ejaculation, you can remain on your back with your legs
bent a few minutes to further maximize semen flow toward the
uterus.

7. Adopt a healthy lifestyle - this is one of the most
important tips for conceiving a baby. Healthy living includes a
sensible diet, nutritional supplements, adequate quality sleep,
managing stress, some exercise and weight management. Another
of the conceiving a baby tips is to simply relax and enjoy your
partner. Enjoy the closeness you'll experience with someone you
truly care about.

And your desire for becoming pregnant and conceiving a baby
will have even more importance to you if it means you'll be
taking better care of yourself and your partner. Not only does
that mean a more healthy you, it also means you'll increase the
chances of having a healthier baby. That's the kind of beginning
you want to provide that new person that you know is going to be
a star.
