As the title said, I'm just curious about the things you did whilst TTC that you believe helped you conceive...
I am currently thinking about TTC baby no2, already have DS, who is 2, who we struggled to conceive after 2 miscarriages and a lot of trying all the old wives' tales.
Just wondering what you think helped you? 🤔

Getting my gum disease sorted. Dental health has a whole body impact and I conceived naturally pretty much straight after extensive peridontal cleaning, having been trying for 2 years and with failed ivf before then.

Tracking ovulation and doing the deed every other day in the lead up to it and day before, day of and day after ovulation.

We both lost 10kg and I left a very stressful job.

We'd been TTC 4yrs at that point and although not obese, we just wanted to get fitter. Sadly, that pregnancy had Patau syndrome, and I MC's the next 2. We don't have any living children, but I do feel lifestyle changes can make more difference than we realise.
