I have had success previously using Femzone. I felt my hormones were off after a m/c and used it for a month, fell pg with my now 3 yr old son the next month. I just started using it again this month hoping for the same result. They have changed the formula since I last used it though , so we'll see... ]]> Fri, 31 Oct 2008 09:44:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20803&PID=531992&title=how-to-get-body-ready#531992 <![CDATA[How to get body ready : Awesome news!!!!!

An impressive update to this forum....something worked!!! Over the labour day weekend we found out we were pregnant YAY!!!!!!! so I put it down to the following:

Boasting husband's Vitamin C intake, (minimum 1500mg a day)
Relaxing, we totally ignored the ovulation charts last month and let what happen, when :)
Sex Position - On your back with a pillow or cushion under your butt, great angle for almost everything.

I hope that some of this help others trying, as we are in total shock being told that the chance are slim to none and now we are.   Good luck to everyone]]> Tue, 28 Oct 2008 13:34:08 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20803&PID=528913&title=how-to-get-body-ready#528913 <![CDATA[How to get body ready : Thats cool, Chikoboo.

Thanks everyone for the help, we have found that menevit will be a great help and also we have been told that celery, celeriac and fennel are all good things to eat as they act as a detoxant that clears everything to ensure good circulation and healthness below.

Huggles everyone for your help its great to know there is something we can do to help our chances

When I spoke to my doc about TTC, she said that both DH and I should cut out smoking, and have very low intake of caffeine and alcohol. I didn't really query the whys and hows of that because we don't smoke or drink coffee, and have a very low alcohol intake anyway, so it wasn't actually going to be a change for us.
But maybe if your partner does any of those things he could look at cutting back?
Otherwise, does he work in a job were his 'bits' get hot? That can be bad for sperm count, so maybe he could make an effort to get up and move around etc if he spends all day at a desk or something?
Good luck ]]> Sun, 14 Sep 2008 00:33:36 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20803&PID=490338&title=how-to-get-body-ready#490338 <![CDATA[How to get body ready : I found this link which discourages...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20803&PID=490198&title=how-to-get-body-ready#490198 Author: JadeC

It is interesting about the aspirin. I think I read it in one of the IVF mags at some stage. I wonder though, when the best time is to start taking the aspirin, and how many a day.

There are many good foods to take during this stage. Keep up the wholefoods (oats, wheatgerm, etc.) Oats are a good kick start to the day as breakfast (porridge). Certainly keep up the calcium (milk). Zinc, selenium, folic acid, elevit. Yes, even men can take folic acid.

Good luck.]]> Sat, 13 Sep 2008 09:20:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20803&PID=489893&title=how-to-get-body-ready#489893 <![CDATA[How to get body ready : Just been on the www.menevit.com.au...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20803&PID=488331&title=how-to-get-body-ready#488331 Author: Chikoboo

Learnt this in class, though it was under IVF it may help with natural conception?

 

.........The use of aspirin increases the success rates. It is thought that the aspirin increases the blood supply to the ovaries and the uterus. The result of which increases the number of eggs produced and improves their quality, while at the same time improving the thickening of the uterus lining making implantation more favourable.............

Does anyone know of certain foods or supplements that will increase and aid our mission of trying for a baby.   I used to suffer from PCOS but since losing alot of weight and maintaining an active and healthy lifestyle dont suffer so badly.
