Advice for Conception...trouble conceiving 4th child Posted: 08-20-06 20:33pm
I've been trying to get pregnant since
November and nothing has happened. I know
that my husband and I can conceive because
we have three other children, but we'd
like one more.
I'm three to four days late and took a
home pregnancy test which came back
negative. Any advice that could help us
out?

In order to conceive, you can try to have
sex during the fertile days of your cycle.
The "fertile days" are the days around
ovulation. Ovulation usually occurs 14
days before your next period is due. Your
partner can also request a sperm analyses.
If everything is OK with his sperm and you
still do not conceive, then you can be
examined. Hormonal analyses, vaginal
ultrasound and HSG can be performed to
identify the cause of sterility.
