Baby Makin' Project

By no means will I go into further detail about our situation, as it is personal. However, I found this article on msn.com and decided to share parts of it in a summary - and more humorous approach. The likelihood of a pregnancy can be affected by strange things not limited to the time and frequency you are having sex. Below are six things that are proven to help get knocked up - and hopefully not knocked out by the headboard breaking activities. 

1. Darkness. It turns out Teddy Pendergrass had a valid point when he told us to turn down the lights. Melatonin, the hormone which protects women's eggs from stress, is produced at night; if you're trying to get pregnant, it is recommended that you try to spend at least eight hours in the dark.
2. Raspberries. Men over the age of 44 should be taking in Vitamin C since those who do have 20 percent less damage to their sperm. For women, increased dosages of Vitamin C after conception decreases the risk of miscarriage. Raspberries are a great source since one cup contain 54 percent of your daily dose of Vitamin C. 
3. Brothers, Lose the Laptop. It's very important to avoid high temperatures on the genitalia if you want to conceive since heat could harm sperm. This means evading hot tubs as well as the laptops because you know they get hot. Lesson:  Your soldiers need to march without getting lost along the way, so find a table to work (or in this case, blog) from. 
4. Yoga. I love a woman in yoga pants, but she's gotta do it too. As much as the significant other - or future baby mama - likes to run marathons and body build, she should choose yoga over her more intense workouts. 55 percent of women who participated in fertility treatments as well as a ten-week mind-body course had a viable pregnancy.
5. Fall in love with fish. Studies have shown that omega-3s found in oily fish can reduce the risk of miscarriage and improve sperm quality. Before gettin' some, treat the special one to a salmon or tilapia dinner! Save the fried catfish for cookouts and some other time.
6. Acupuncture. The prickly procedure and herbal medicine have been used to treat certain fertility problems thanks to the potential improvement in ovarian and follicular function, according to American Pregnancy Association. Acupuncture can also improve blood flow to the endometrium. 

Good luck and keep the Jodeci on repeat!
