One way to restore all the good stuff to #Conceivinghood sex: Knowing exactly which days are your potential fertility jackpot days by using an ovulation test from Clearblue® right from the start so you know exactly when to double down on your efforts. In addition to increasing the odds, you’ll get pregnant sooner; understanding when you’re in your fertile window can also help you better connect with your partner during all the times you’re not. Here are six expert-backed suggestions for how to make sex more fun when you’re trying to conceive: “The more you focus on having sex only during the fertile window, the more your brain and body associate sex with baby-making, and you forget about the pleasurable and fun part,” Goldberg says. “It doesn’t have to be intercourse, but some kind of sexual intimacy outside the fertile window helps remind your body sex doesn’t have to be all business.” And don’t be embarrassed to bring up your fantasies to your partner. Goldberg says couples tend to make assumptions about what their partner is or isn’t into, without taking into account that people’s sexual desires change. For example, one thing may have been off-limits five years ago, but now your partner could be more open. One of Goldberg’s favorite ways to help her clients spice things up is having them write a “yes/no/maybe” list—essentially, a list of sexual experiences you would and wouldn’t try (and the ones you’re on the fence about). You’ll learn more about your partner in the process—and you’ll have some menu options when you need some inspiration in the moment. *NICE Clinical Guideline CG146 (2013) - www.nice.org.uk/guidance/CG156” **https://www.clearblue.com/how-to-get-pregnant/6-tips-help-emotionally-prepare ***https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/stress-management/in-depth/stress/art-20046037 ****https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/324556
