How to Get Pregnant

Starting your journey to parenthood can be exciting, but also challenging if you find it is not happening as quickly as you were expecting. We would expect that 85% of couples will conceive within six months of trying to get pregnant.

There are three important ways to improve your chances of getting pregnant naturally:

Calculate your fertile window and have intercourse one or two days prior to ovulation. Regular ejaculation by the male (every 2-3 days) will improve the quality and motility of the sperm in the ejaculate. This should occur in the time between menstruation and ovulation.
