Stress is generally bad, but can especially be harmful when you're trying to conceive. Meditate. Walk the dog. Breathe. Try yoga. Do whatever you can to lower your stress levels. Not only will you feel better, but you may also increase your chances of getting pregnant.
Cut Coffee and Cocktail
If you want to get pregnant, stick to no more than 200mg of caffeine a day, or about two cups of coffee. And those cocktails? Think twice. Studies have shown drinking while trying to get pregnant can decrease your chances of getting pregnant by more than 50%!
Stop Smoking

There are no positives to smoking. From the numerous chemicals to the potential of lung cancer, the cost of smoking is never worth the price you pay. Quit now for a better tomorrow.
Use Ovulation Tests
Try ovulation predictor kits (OPKs) that give you positive results the day before you ovulate, giving you ample time to plan. There are also fertility tracking apps to help identify your peak fertility windows.
Have Sex
|
Keep having sex regularly, but don't exhaust yourself. It's a good idea to have sex one to two days before ovulation and then again on the day you think you're ovulating.
Take Your Vitamins
 
When you combine Folic Acid with the other B vitamins, you can also increase your overall chances of becoming pregnant. Vitamin B12 has been found to increase sperm count, so make sure your partner gets plenty too.
