As you have been married for 5 years, you can surely think of having a child. The first thing is that you have to forget about contraception. This might bring in some irregularities in your periodic cycle and may take a few months for your cycle to be regular. But many women regain fertility after the first month they stop taking the Pill. The same holds true for the contraceptive patch or the ring.

Smoking or taking drugs greatly reduces your chances of getting pregnant and can even lead to premature birth, low-birth weight of the baby miscarriages. Research has shown that smoking can have an effect on your fertility and lessen your partner’s sperm count. It is also recommended that women should avoid alcohol when trying for pregnancy. Reduce your caffeine intake and switchover to milkshakes. Keep your weight in check. Try to keep your BMI into the 20 to 30 range before you start trying. Time is a great factor for getting pregnant. In case you have tried to get pregnant on the wrong days, then you will have slight chances of getting pregnant. Figure out your ovulation days to get pregnant. Avoid five days before and after your periods, as these are considered to be the safe period. Be totally stress free while having sex and actually there is no specific position in order to conceive.
