With the scares of infertility and the pressure of having a baby on your time, pressure to conceive might consume you. So here is some extra pointers I heard about while googling In the past. First off theres the Basil Thermometer. It shows your detailed temp, when your most fertile your tempeture will rise. For example if you were at 97.2 all month you might spike to a 98.8 when your most fertile.
This method in my opinion will only work for the jotters. You know the ladies who like to write everything down from the grocery list to the amount of money they spent from monday to tuesday.If your not a jotter there is an easier way , Fertility sticks , a girls best friend.At your local pharmasy you can pickup a pack of seven for about 15 .00 and about fourteen days after your period you pee on a stick a day untill you see a smiley face or two line telling you your fertile its time to make a baby.

Prepare for baby

You have decided to start trying. How Exciting! Step one off the pill. Step two find out when your fertile. Some women may say thats easy but it's amazing how many of us out there dont know a thing about getting pregnant. Some say fourteen days after your period is when your most fertile. You can even go on the computer and google baby websites and track your fertility. They'll tell you what days to try to get pregnant and even give you some pointers like, not peeing after sex and tell your hubby to get rid of those tidey whities and buy some baggy boxers.
Its strange how the wanting to be a mommy can be so random for a lot of women. Than there are the others who the wanting to be a mommy is on there twelve month plan. April, garage sale, May clean basement, June have baby. These moms are the planners. Ever choice is scheduled.
Whether your a planner or your wanting to be pregnant bacame suddenly but strongly Ccongrats and prepare for baby mode!

Congratulations! You are at the first stages of mommmyhood (the wanting to be one). I call this a stage in pregnancy because for most women you have to get to this point in order to want what comes with it. I remember a few months before my wedding I gazed at a friend holding a baby. Usually the trendy magazine on the table or the bottle of pino grigio would hold my interest but this time it was, this baby. It came sudden but from this point forward becoming a mom seemed to be my calling.

I will continue to post the chapters of my story and my thoughts throughout the year . Please continue this journey with me.
