Are there any tricks for getting pregnant?

WebMD explains that a couple can get pregnant faster if the woman is aware of her menstrual cycle. Tracking the period can help pinpoint the days that a woman is most fertile. Additionally, a woman can purchase an ovulation prediction kit to help her narrow down when she ovulates.

Couples should avoid having sexual intercourse in a sitting or standing position. WebMD states that these positions allow the sperm to run out of the vagina. After having sex, the woman should stay in bed for 10 to 15 minutes to allow the sperm time to travel from the vagina to the cervix.
