Try taking progesterone cream during your ovulation (it ups your body temp and also fertility), take baby asprin one syringe full a day is more than enough (ups fertility), try ovulation tests and once they say positive have sex as soon after as possible, take a multivitamin that has at least 400 mcg of folic acid/ folate and at least 25 mg of B6 (prepares your body for baby and prevents the chance of another miscarrage) I did all this for two months without trying (just to become fertil mertil) the third month was when my husband and I decided to concieve and when that ov test said positive we tried and a week later I took an early pregnancy test and found out I was! Pregnant on the first try even though I was told I was most likely infertil! So take it from me hunny, these work!

Sorry to hear of your miscarriage. If you're having problems falling pregnant again, follow these tips:
1. If you or your partner smoke, give it up.
2. Exercise regularly.
3. Relax. Stress could be a factor in not being able to fall pregnant.
4. Supplement your diet with foliv acid.
5. Eat lots of fruit and veges.
6. Minimise your alcohol intake.
Good luck!

What Holly7000 says about a psychological block is quite right. When something happens or you are concentrating greatly on something like getting pregnant it can actually inhibit you. My consultant told me there is an area of the brain which shuts off fertility if you think about it too much. Putting the desire and the need to get pregnant again out of your head is very very hard but you need to stop thinking about it and it will happen. When I was 30 I wanted a child so badly and I thought about it all the time. I did ovulation charts, lying with my legs up, took chinese medicines everything but all to no avail. After 2 years still nothing had happened and I could not continue like that - it was even affecting my job so I stopped obsessing and I became pregnant immediately. I understand because of the sadness you have been through and are going through how important this is to you but you have been able to become pregnant before so you will be able to do it again. Get plenty of sleep, be physically healthy and eat well. Enjoy love making just for love making and the closeness it brings you not for the end product. Very good luck to you both.
