Ways To Get Pregnant And Have a Healthy Baby

In simple terms there are two major ways to get pregnant.

The first is the natural way, that's by having sexual intercourse with a partner of the opposite sex and the second is through artificial insemination.

Of these two ways to get pregnant, the first is the most common method used. The second method is used only in those cases where there is a medical problem especially with the male partner. In this case, the sperms are injected inside the woman's reproductive tract in an artificial manner i.e. without the sexual intercourse. If the male partner's sperms are produced sufficient enough, the same is used and referred to as artificial insemination by husband(AIH). But in cases where there is no sperm production in the male partner, the sperms are taken from other willing donors and are injected and it is termed as artificial insemination by donor(AID). Artificial Insemination can be of many types, which include intra-cervical, intra-vaginal, intra-uterine, intra-peritoneal and intra-fallopian insemination.

Even in the normal way to get pregnant, one needs to take into account certain facts and adhere to them so that one is successful in his / her effort. Of these, the major factor is that even if you have frequent sex, but not at the right time (i.e. the ovulation period) then your efforts would go mostly futile. This is because of the simple fact that only when the sperm comes in contact with a fertile or live egg and conjoin does an embryo forms.

Under normal condition, the males produce sperm regularly, the females have restricted period of ovulation i.e. producing eggs. The eggs so produced have short lifespan i.e. they live for only 24 hours. So it is very important that sex happens when the woman is ovulating and her eggs are alive and moving.
Though there is no fixed day for ovulation as this may vary from woman to woman, but roughly calculated the ovulation period falls somewhere between the first week after her menstrual cycle and 1 week before her next menstrual period. But to find out the correct ovulation period there are kits available in the market that would be useful to track this process and accordingly one can plan for having sex during that period.

If you are on your way to get pregnant you should prepare yourself physically and mentally. For this you should take healthy and balanced diet. Do regular exercise and be completely stress-free. This enhances the hormonal secretion in a balanced way. This is applicable to both partners. It is important to note that smoking, taking of alcohol and drugs act negatively on the sperm formation and also on ovulation. Both partners should strictly avoid them.

Without worrying too much, make sexual relationship a pleasurable act and in turn will induce more libido and lead to a happy and healthy pregnancy. Enjoy it and its future fruits.
