How's Your Sex Life?
Great Sex Matters When You're Trying to Conceive
By Jane Merrill
Evidence-based medicine would discredit the idea of building up lust. However, a study of a group that waits and then enjoys spontaneous, passionate coupling, versus the "Come, sperm donor; do your thing" scenario would be very interesting, as the results would acknowledge the role of enjoyment and high-intensity orgasms in getting the woman pregnant.
Can sexual position help? From India comes indigenous medical manuals that say yes – not Kama Sutra twists but just some gentle hydraulics.
Getting me pregnant took my first husband 10 years. The month we were giving it one last try was when I conceived. Knowing we were about to call it quits, our fertility specialist imparted some extra advice. We should get into the sexual act as heartily as possible, despite its being on command, and I should prop myself up on a pillow, with my legs raised, for at least five minutes after receiving the sperm.

Hi was just reading through your messages... Why don't you try and ask your doctor about In Vitro procedures. You can read through it on the net and find out more about it. Good luck!

ME AND MY HUSBAND HAVE NOT ACTUALLY BEEN TRYING BUT HAVE NOT STOPPED THE ISSUES OF HAPPENING FOR ABOUT 3 OR 4 YEARS. WE HAVE NEVER USED PROTECTION. BUT I AS WELL AS HIM WOULD LIKE A CHILD. I WOULD RATHER HAVE A BABY SOONER THAN LATER. I THINK ITS MORE ME THAN HIM WANTING A BABY. WE DONT DISCUSS HIS PAST BUT I KNOW HE HAD USED SOME ILLEGAL THINGS IN THE PAST AS WELL AS I HAVE .. IM TAKING WHEN WE WERE 16 OR 17. BUT I DONT HAVE THE MONEY FOR US TO GO BE TESTED AND I ACT LIKE ITS NOT A BIG ISSUE FOR ME ON A DAILY BASIC.. BUT ITS EATING ME ALIVE IN THE INSIDE. EACH TIME WE HAVE SEX THATS ALL I THINK ABOUT IF HE CANT FINISH I GET MAD AT HIM AND I AM ALMOST AT MY BRAKING POINT AND JUST IN MY HEAD I KNOW I WILL NEVER BE LUCKY TO HAVE A BEAUITFUL BABY. THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE IN HIS FAMILY THAT IS PREGNANT AND EVERYONE KNOWS WE WOULD LOVE TO HAVE ONE, SO I JUST PLAY LIKEK I DONT WANT ONE ANYMORE JUST TO TRY TO MAKE MYSELF THINK THAT BUT I NEVER DO. SOMEONE OUT THERE PLEASE HELP ME UNDERSTAND WHAT IM DOING WRONG AND JUST SOME ADVICE WOULD HELP ME???????
