Hi gals,
I really didn’t know where to post this but my husband and I are thinking about starting a family now. Can you please share any dua, method and/or position (during intercourse), something your grandma/mom told you or anything that will help us concieve. Help me out here please, I am counting on you all. Anything would be of great help. Thanks in advance!

Talk to your gynecologist, he/she can advise you best. Of course make sure to stop taking the birth control.

Take prenatal vitamins and folic acid.

What did you had for Sehri today? (Ramadan edition thread)

Like what everyone said, prenatals, extra folic acid, and lots of dua for a naik and salih child.

If you are interested there are a couple of very good books that i find extremely helpful and informative, esp when we come from a culture where these things arent openly talked about.

Re: Question for mothers and would be mothers

lol true.. but there a few points u got to keep in mind when dng intercourse:

  • do the intercourse in missionary position
  • placea cussion underneath ur hips
  • and tell ur husband/partner to stay in this position when he is about to discharge..
  • stay in this position for abt 15-20mins *]include folic acid in ur diet..as it will prevent the spina bifida hope i havnt postd any wrng material which i wasnt ..on this website:p...gud luk

LOLLL!!! Sorry but this was funny - If by "this" you mean the missionary position.

I could be wrong but i thought the whole position thing, or lying in place with pillow underneath for 15 mins etc wasnt necessary?

The last sentence you spoke

Re: Question for mothers and would be mothers

Mama, you'd be surprised, when my wife was in med school, there were a lot of stories of people "doing it wrong" and then being confused why they couldn't conceive.

TOO MUCH INFORMATION WARNING:

There was a story about a couple from a very rural place having intercourse in her URETHRA!!!! OUCH!!! and she was surprised at how painful it was. YIKES!!

Re: Question for mothers and would be mothers

I hope you don't mind me saying this, but, if you are only just starting out thinking of starting a family, then don't think too much about it, just stop using birth control and relax and let nature take it's course. If you think too much about it then you're going to create issues for yourself. Don't read too much about trying to conceive etc.

Continue your namaaz and dua and pray for a healthy and happy child with a long life "Rabbi ul habli mi'na saleheen" "Rabbi la tajarni fa'daw wa untah khayrul wareseen"

And yes, take Folic Acid and something like Sanatogen Pre-Natal.

Insha Allah, you will be blessed with a child to melt your hearts.

Trust me, I talk from experience - the first time I conceived, I was relaxed and got pregnant as soon as we decided to start tring. After several losses, I read EVERYTHONG and ANYTHING about trying to conceove etc, and got stressed, symptom spotting took over life and all this has contributed to not being in 100% health. In a word, it drove me MAD.

Alham di lillah, afetr receiving some encouraging news at the weekend I feel like a huge weight got lifter from my heart and I can once again relax and make plans.
