'When is the best time to get pregnant?' is a question that our web site visitors ask again and again. The answer is simple, at the time of ovulation. Becoming pregnant however isn't simply a matter of depositing sperm in the woman at or around ovulation time. For the sperm and the egg to be fertile and for the male sperm count to be high a certain care of ones body and mind is needed. Basic care such as healthy eating, * definitely no smoking, no drinking, no drug taking (including prescription drugs if at all possible - consult your doctor), combine this with a generally stress free life and your chances of conception will increase greatly.
*Smoking not only fatally damages the unborn child but also greatly reduces the risks of conception.
To further increase your chances you should be aware that excessive ejaculation greatly reduces the sperm count and therefore also reduces the chances of fertilization. Making love twice a day every day to ensure that at the unknown moment of ovulation there is sperm present is NOT the answer to getting pregnant. The woman's cycle should be plotted as best as possible and the couple should learn the tell tale signs of ovulation so as to know exactly when ovulation is about to occur. There are many ways of 'getting to know' your cycle and body that are outlined in other articles which can be found at http://pregnantfocus.com .
Once the couple is aware of the approximate ovulation time, make love once every 2 or 3 days, keep healthy bodies and healthy states of mind and then conception should occur without problems in the majority of couples.
