Making A Baby: Questions by staggerlee: 6:38pm On Apr 30, 2015
I want to ask a question, please I need mature answers,
When a couple decides to have a baby what should they do?
1. When should they have sex and how often?
2. What should they eat?
3. What should they not do?
4. How long should they try before they seek help?
Thank you

If they decide to have a baby,they should sleep with each other(I don't mean sleep beside o).

Op,are you and your wife trying for a baby without success?
Start by calculating your wife's ovulation period and start making love everyday from the 11th day till the 17th of her period.If you can't do it everyday,do it on alternate days.
Try for three months and if there is still no success,then you need to go for further investigations.
Also,your wife can start taking folic acids.

Nice one by thorpido.

I would like to add:
Eat more of ogbono soup, fish, fish oils. Same with wife. Known to boost sperm count and the later improves fertility in females esp omega3 and vitamin e from the fish oil.

Avoid alcohol, food cooked with 'akau' e.g. Nkwobi, isi-ewu; avoid krest tonic drink. Reduces sperm count.
.if you and wifey live under the same roof the three months is long enough to get pregnant. If you are living apart then make it 6months.

Him; zinc, vitamin C
Her; everything lol.

Both, plenty of water, fruits and vegetables, sleep, and of course, sessssssssx.

It's important to try and estimate her ovulation day. They say the best quality sperm is ejaculated every two days, but don't obsess over that. Have fun!
