 Conception

THE CREATION OF LIFE

At the moment of becoming pregnant the man’s sperm fertilizes the woman’s egg. This act is called conception. The sperm and egg join in the Fallopian Tube to form a zygote, which develops into an embryo and later a fetus. Only if the fertilization of the egg is followed by an implantation, pregnancy will take place. After 7-10 days zygote becomes a blastocyst, which is a ball of approximately 100 cells. The human blastocyst implants in the mother’s uterus. Further starts a stage of gastrulation. The implanted blastocyst cultivates three germ layers. The inner one is called mesoderm, the exoderm is in the middle and the outer is endoderm. At this stage of development the genetic code of the father is completely involved into the formation of the embryo. Twinning is possible only  till this point in development.
Each menstrual cycle uterus releases one egg. If this egg is not fertilized, you should wait for another cycle. One of the proven methods to get pregnant is to have sex everyday. Sperm lives in a woman for 24-48 hours after the intercourse, which is why using this method, most women get
pregnant as fast as possible. But it’s working  only if  both man and woman have no health problems and the woman is ovulating properly.

WHEN ARE YOU PLANNING YOUR BABY TO ARRIVE?

Many couples wish to have a baby at a definite time. Future parents want  their baby to arrive on some special date, like Christmas or  an important family holiday, more realistic ones plan it for their favorite season. People would like their child to have a birthday on St. Valentines Day, so that everyone liked them or on New Years Day to spend less money for presents and so on. But even though you may be good at planning other things, practice shows that the conception is almost unpredictable. A very small number of couples get pregnant on the first time of having unprotected sex. We can divide women into four age groups and see how their chances of getting pregnant differ.

1.      For the youngest group (women in their early 20s) it takes 4-5 months to conceive.

2.      For the second group (women in their late 20s ) this period is longer. It takes an average of 5-7 months.

3.      Women in their early 30s need 7-10 months.

4.      In the last group (women in their late 30s and over 30) it takes 10-12 months or even more.



Now you can evaluate your chances and prepare yourself mentally.
  And still conception remains a matter of chance. Though this topic is well-studied and we seem to know everything about it, but it still contains a connotation of mystery. You have equal chances to get pregnant on the first and the twelfth months. But if you want to increase your chances of getting pregnant you should follow some rules. This is very essential for those, who can’t have sex everyday (one of partners travels a lot or is currently busy) and for couples, in which the woman is over 30. However statistics show a strange figure, a couple which has regular sex usually needs a year for successful conception for woman.

THINGS TO REMEMBER FOR FUTURE PARENTS

 Here is a list of rules that can help you  to become parents very soon.

1.      A woman should record the period of her ovulation, otherwise you may miss your “fertile window”, which is the ovulation day plus five days before it.

2.      Since you know when you will be ovulating, try not to have sex for five days before the fertile window in order to build up a man’s sperm count. After that you may have sex every day of the fertile window.

3.      Don’t forget  to monitor the cervical mucus changes, luteinizing hormone (LH) levels with a home ovulation predictor test and basal body temperature.

4.      If a man has a low sperm count you need to change the tactics. Most doctors advise to have sex every other day, because frequent ejaculations lower sperm count for some time. And if you’re not aware of the date of the next ovulation day, have sex two-three times a week.

5.      If a woman is often exercising strenuously, she should reduce her activities. Active sports and exercises may be a reason of irregular ovulations or a the woman may ovulate less often.

6.      And probably the most important rule is to lead a healthy way of life and despite all of the obstacles you meet on your way stay optimistic.
