FACT


A MALE CAN RELEASE ANYWHERE BETWEEN 100 MILLION AND 300 MILLION SPERM IN ONE EJACULATION


SHOULDEXPECT WHATYOU


While you are still planning your pregnancy, you are and your partner need to make sure you are on fertile ground. Visit your doctor for a physical. Check your blood pressure, your urine for infections and glucose levels, get a cervical smear to ensure that you have a healthy cervix and have a blood test to see if you are Rhesus negative, or have an onset of long term health conditions such as diabetes or HIV.


CONCEIVE? There are many conflicting opinions on this process. Most experts advise that you stop taking the pill two or three months in advance. The good news is


that the hormones from the pill are eliminated from your system when you have your very next period, so you can go ahead and


try to conceive thereafter. Some women are lucky enough to be immediately fertile, but for others is usually takes a few months to start ovulating. The rule of thumb is that if you aren’t pregnant in six months, then you need to visit a doctor.


WHEN SHOULD I STOP TAKING THE PILL TO TAKE YOUR FOLIC ACID


Daily folic acid is essential in preventing spine abnormalities of the foetus. Unfortunately these happen in the early weeks of pregnancy, when most women are unaware they are pregnant. If you are planning to fall pregnant, then you have the upper hand and can start taking a good multivitamin now as well as a folic acid supplement. This is a good foundation for a healthy pregnancy.


SPERM CAN LIVE UP TO SIX DAYS IN YOUR BODY, BUT YOUR EGG CAN ONLY SURVIVE 12 TO 24 HOURS.


TIP


THAT’S WHY HAVING SEX BEFORE AND DURING OVULATION IS RECOMMENDED, SO THAT THE ODDS OF SPERM AND EGG MEETING ARE BEST
