What do u consider TTC?

Question

What do you consider as actually TTC? Tons and tons of sex? Tracking your ovulation? What else? I'm just curious. Because technically my fiancé and I have wanted a baby and have been "trying" for near a year. However, there have been plenty of months where the deed couldn't be done or where I didn't track my ovulation due to stress. So does this mean I've really been trying? Should I count months where he was unable to cum during sex as TTC? Or count the months that we were just too tired or had too much going on? I guess I'm just confused.

Answer

For me and my SO it will be when we decide to stop using all forms of protection.

Answer

Having sex more often, trying to increase the amount around fertile time/ovulation, keeping a healthy diet and lifestyle, taking prenatal vitamins, and keeping track of cycle le gths to see if they are regular/irregular. Ttc I feel is different than "not preventing" pregnancy and letting it happen if it does, it's a bit more focused but both can be beneficial depending on how soon you want it to happen.

Answer

If you want a baby and aren't preventing it then your trying, maybe not 100% actively trying bc your busy but your still ttc.

Answer

I would say trying to maintain an active sex life and not preventing pregnancy would count as trying. The other stuff is all well and good but doesn't necessarily equate to a baby. Sometimes that just adds stress which can meddle with your efforts.

Answer

I started taking prenatals to get ready and I just felt like it would happen. It didnt, so we started keepiing track of my fertile days and having sex everyother day.  Plus I was feeding him lots of walnuts and juicing first thing in the morning.(not sure if this helped) we were preg 2nd month! GL

Answer

Increased sex especially around time of ovulation and tracking ovulation would be what I consider trying to conceive. I think it's different than just not using birth control and letting whatever happens happen. Planning and tracking is what I consider it to be.
