TTC tips for 2nd pregnancy
I’m a mum of a 2 yo. I’ve been wanting to try for a second one but I keep getting negative results. I’m also 30 this year. Any tips or advices on how can I improve my fertility so that there’s a chance to be pregnant again? Is there any supplements that ai can take?
I did the following: 1) Track menstrual cycle to have an idea when ovulation would occur 2) A few days before the estimated ovulation, start trying, so that in case ovulation happens earlier, you're still able to capture it. You're only fertile for about 24 hrs once the egg is released, so the window is really pretty narrow. Better to start trying a few days before ovulation to have a better chance of pregnancy. Everyday if you can. 3) Observe physical signs of fertility eg clear discharge If you've been trying at strategic timings and nothing happened after 6 months, do seek medical advice. I had my 1st kid at first try (got lucky) and with the 2nd one,I was tracking my menstrual cycle closely. Got the kid in my 4th month.

Otherwise, manage stress and eat healthy, rest well and keep taking folic acid supplements as you continue to try. For myself I took pregnancy supplements (multi vit) 3 months before we start trying (period only came back after stopping breastfeeding), so knowing your cycle and ovulation patterns help. all the best!

Focus on managing stress, getting good sleep, eating balanced meals, and moderating caffeine and alcohol. Consulting an OB-Gynae for professional help is also an option.
