Depending upon where you are in your quest to become pregnant you might already know that timing is vitally important. If you are hoping to become pregnant making sure that there are viable sperm present when you ovulate is the key.
It is a common misconception that the egg is just hanging out waiting to be fertilized and the sperm do their little "swimmy thing" and race up the fallopian tubes to cross the finish line. The thing is that when we look at the facts this is a little backwards. Yes, it may happen in this manner but more than likely the sperm is already present or close to being present when a woman ovulates.
Perhaps you have seen this misconception played out in movies, tv or even your own life. It is funny when it's not you but perhaps you can identify...a couple who is desperately trying to conceive...the wife yelling at her husband, "I'm ovulating! Comeon! Time to make a baby! We only have a limited window here!"...and the husband, not believing that he would ever wish to turn down sex, groans as he gets up from the couch.
The "shelf life" of an egg once it is released from the ovary is approximately 24 to 48 hours. The longevity of a male's sperm at the temperatures present inside the human body is 3 days or so. So you can see that it might be more advantageous to have the sperm "ready and waiting" for the egg to be released from the ovary instead of the other way around, if possible.
Of course you might have no way of knowing for sure ahead of time when ovulation will occur. You can monitor your basal temperature every morning and many women have had great success with this. Many women also are under the assumption that they ovulate 14 days after the last day of their last period. Nothing could be further from the truth and women have been known to ovulate early in their cycle....some after only 4 or 5 days.
There are many methods to pinpoint the time of ovulation...ovulation prediction tests...basal thermometers and a notebook...and some women will actually feel a sharp pain on one side near where their ovary is that will signal when they are ovulating. This can be very helpful although timing is still important in this whole process.
It might be wise to come up with some sort of "game plan" if you are having a hard time getting pregnant. This means coordinating with your partner nights when you will both partake in a little "amore"....perhaps spaced out every 4 or 5 days to ensure a high sperm count and so there are plenty of "swimmers" waiting on that egg as it drops from the ovary and makes its way down the fallopian tube.
Along with all of this I want to remind you to keep the romance in your relationship and "baby making" time. You will find that there are several things that can hurt your chances of becoming pregnant and stress is one of them. Keep positive and "have fun", if you know what I mean. Try not to make your journey to become pregnant a chore for you and your partner. Yes, I would recommend that you schedule time for the two of you to be together but perhaps make it more of a "date night" so your partner doesn't feel that he is expected to "perform" and you both should try to forget the goal and instead try to enjoy the journey together.
If you are still unsuccessful in becoming pregnant there could be some underlying issues that are not apparent to you. This is no cause for alarm since the human body is an amazing thing and it can overcome many obstacles. You can help it along in many ways naturally and without the assistance of pills or surgery. These days so many people are ready to jump right in and start treatment at a fertility clinic or specialist. Give you body a chance to heal itself and why not try some natural and holistic cures for infertility...both you and your partner. You are in this together after all....

Imagine Your Own Little Pregnancy Miracle
Is it your hearts desire to have a child of your own? Is it a perpetual dream of yours to become pregnant and give birth to a baby? If you are having a hard time getting pregnant you must know in your heart that you wouldn’t be having this dream if there wasn’t a way for it to become a reality. Becoming pregnant may not come as easily for you as it does for some women but perhaps it is only so you will love and appreciate your baby more than other couples….perhaps the child that the future holds for you is so special that he or she needs parents that will love and adore him or her and realize just how wonderful he or she is….
For many the path to pregnancy is a quick and simple one while for others it can be a trying time. A doctor might be able to find many reasons why you have been having difficulty in getting pregnant but if you do any research you will find that there are thousands of women who become pregnant after the doctors tell them that they will never be able to have children.
One such woman is Lisa Olson. Ms. Olson has written a book called Pregnancy Miracle which contains all the information that she found through her 14 year struggle with infertility. Pregnancy Miracle shares with you the ins and outs, ups and downs and dangers and complications of modern infertility treatments. In addition she shares with you what actually worked for her…what has allowed her to have two healthy children starting at the age of 43, no less!
You see, for every problem that modern medicine might point to as the reason for your infertility, there is a cure out there that uses natural and holistic methods. It doesn’t matter if you’re talking about blocked fallopian tubes or PCOS or endometriosis…there are methods and cures that you can utilize to help improve your chances of becoming pregnant in spite of these issues….or methods that can help cure these problems for you.
Think about it….how long has modern medicine been in the infertility business? Not too long compared to herbalist, nutritonalists and practitioners of Chinese medicine. There are herbs and treatments available even if you have been diagnosed as having blocked fallopian tubes, tilted cervix, cysts and even endometriosis…without surgery! The truth is that herbs are every bit as powerful as modern pharmaceuticals and they are the building blocks of the medicines that are prescribed by doctors today.
The fact remains that if it is your dream to overcome infertility and have a child of your own you shouldn’t give up. Don’t take some doctor’s opinion as gospel. Become one of the thousands who have proven them wrong and become pregnant in spite of the opinion of modern medicine. I have even heard doctors admit that they don’t know why a woman is unable to become pregnant and also heard doctors use such unscientific terms as “I guess your body learned how to become pregnant” once a woman was successful in her attempts.
My suggestion would be to take some time and learn about these holistic and natural cures for infertility. It isn’t going to cost you even close to what a round of invetro fertilization would run you so why not make this side trip for a couple of months? Educate yourself and give you and your partner both a few months to become healthy and for your bodies to adjust to the suggested changes…although, most couples have become pregnant within two to three months using the methods suggested in Lisa Olson’s book “Pregnancy Miracle”…now that’s what I call fast! Now wouldn’t it be wonderful if you were holding a bundle of joy one year from now? Pretty soon your biggest worry could be how you’re going to fit into your jeans and what color to paint the baby’s room.

Can Traditional Chinese Medicine Cure Your Infertility?
Did you know that herbs were prescribed by herbalist to patient up until 1941? Herbs have been used to improve health for centuries while modern pharmaceuticals have only been around for a short while. Herbs are the building blocks that have become the pharmaceutical industry of today.
Take for instance the plant “foxglove” which was commonly prescribed to patients for chest pains. Later the ingredient digitalis was isolated from the foxglove plant. Today this same active ingredient is given to patients for heart related ailments.
For a while herbal practitioners were few and far between in many countries as the medical community provided a pill for “whatever ails ya”, and the use of herbs was left to hippies and a few holdouts from years past.
Today, you are seeing an increased interest in Traditional Chinese Medicine and herbal remedies. People are beginning to question the methods of doctors and becoming educated about their own health.
One area where this is very apparent is in the area of infertility treatment. For a long time IVF and Clomid where the only hope for many infertile couples who were wishing to become pregnant. Once the newness of infertility treatments wore off and it seemed like everyone knew someone who had been through IVF some found that the success rates weren’t quite what the thought they’d be. IVF isn’t a guarantee for any couple that you will become pregnant.
It was then that some began to look backwards for an answer and a cure. They turned to Chinese Medicine, holistic and herbal remedies to help cure their infertility. The lack of invasive procedures and the natural nature of these cures is very appealing for many. For others it is the shear effectiveness of what the “old way” has to offer. Also, for those who would rather save their money for their child’s college fund, natural cures and Chinese medicine is very appealing.
What is better…the “new and improved” or the original? The choice is up to you but what do you have to lose other than a couple of months of your time? See if these tried and true cures make you a believer like they have thousands before you.
For a step by step guide and proven method of overcoming infertility using Traditional Chinese Medicine and holistic methods for both you and your partner we recommend that you read “Pregnancy Miracle” by Lisa Olson. It offers a 5 step approach for overcoming infertility and comes with 3 months of counseling with Lisa Olson herself. Learn more at Consumer Products Overview

Infertility Advice From Someone That's Been There
The heartbreak and unspoken disappointment that goes hand in hand with infertility is something that most people will never understand. You are hesitant to even share with most people that you and your significant other are having this problem…not so much out of embarrassment but more because there really is nothing positive that someone might be able to say to you.
You are sick of hearing that you should relax and that once you stop trying you’ll get pregnant. You don’t want to hear about adoption or about someone’s cousin who had the same problem. None of this helps or gives you hope. You spend time searching for an answer and every month you hope and pray with everything that you have that you could just get pregnant and have a child of your own. Your pain is only amplified by stories of abuse and neglect against children. You wonder why it is so easy for others to have children that they don’t even want yet you desire nothing more than to love and care for a baby of your own.
As you explore your options you have probably been steered in the direction of fertility clinics and fertility specialist. Yes, these people deal with infertility every day they go to work and they can provide services that have worked for many. They might even be straight with you about your odds of conceiving using various methods that they have developed. The price tag may be steep but you honestly can’t put a price on being a parent and you would give up every last penny you have to be a parent and have a child of your own.
You may have explored other options and read about holistic cures for infertility. Chinese Medicine is even becoming more and more popular even in the medical community. Fertility clinics are beginning to add acupuncture to their list of services to “help” clients who are going through IVF, as a matter of fact.
Did you know that Chinese Medicine and other holistic and natural cures for infertility often work for couples that had no success with IVF and other procedures commonly offered by fertility clinics? You actually might have better success and save yourself a lot of time (and money) by taking a few months and trying some of these methods.
Chinese herbs are statistically proven to cure approximately 70% of the cases of infertility with some studies showing 50% success rates and other studies claiming 90% success rates. Methods will focus upon both you and your significant other and when you address other aspects of your lifestyle such as diet, exercise and stress the success rate is bound to go up. Yes, the biological clock is ticking but you might actually find better success from a natural and holistic cure for your infertility.
For more information on how Chinese Medicine and holistic cures for infertility you can check out Lisa Olson’s “Pregnancy Miracle”…it will tell you the story of a 43 year old woman who found success with a combination of Chinese Medicine and natural cures for infertility…and became pregnant after 14 years of trying! You can read her story on the “Pregnancy Miracle Homepage”
