What Food to Eat When Trying to Get Pregnant: The Conception Diet

Being pregnant is what most newly married couples dream of right after marriage when they first romance. Being intimate and having new sex partner is all too sweet and having to live forever with your loved one is already a dream come true thing, but the next step of life is family planning. Having a baby is no wonder a blessing, but with great blessing comes great responsibilities too. Sometimes it gets hard to conceive due to one of the partners being way too occupied, or a bit not in the “mood” thing. But when you really urge hard to me parents, there is no way out to help yourself other than being one!

Pregnancy is hard, you know! Intercourse is not the only way to get pregnant, there are other things that a female has to do like altering one’s diet, food habits, taking certain vitamins, working, etc. What you eat for conceiving is very important as there are few food elements which stops one from being pregnant.

To save you from the trouble, here are seven foods that can help you get pregnant, and these are as follows:

Ice Cream

Oh yes, isn’t that what you wanted in order to be pregnant? And there is no such thing as you need to have the one with low fat, or you can’t have much chocolate. You are allowed to have the full cream one and as the way, as you want. Any dairy products containing whole milk hinders ovulatory infertility issue. It is found by studies that low-fat milk or any food products made out of them rather do the opposite.

It is thought that getting rid of the milk fat alters the proper balance of sex hormones, which apparently prevents ovulation, and hence pregnancy. Do intake the extra calorie as you are planning to conceive, but also do make sure to cut off the exaggerative calorie through some other dish you eat at the other part of the night.

Wild Salmon

Seafood is always rich in Omega-3 and fatty acids. These are elements which assist the reproductive hormones to control and ascend the flow of blood, especially to the reproductive organs. You can have grilled salmon, fried salmon, baked salmon, and in thousands of other different ways. But you MUST avoid sea creatures like the shark, swordfish, king mackerel, and tilefish, as they are medically forbidden for people attempting for pregnancy.

Beans

Yes, beans might look too small in size but does great work in stimulating fertility of a woman who is trying to get pregnant. Early studies have shown that women who intake more vegetable proteins than animal proteins are more likely to get pregnant than the ones eating animal protein. Beans go really well with salads and also with a lot of other dishes, but if you are just one of those who hates beans but loves lentils, pulses, tofu, nuts, etc. then they MUST go for those in lieu of this.

Olive Oil

Olive oil assists stimulating fertility of a woman. It assists in increasing insulin sensitivity and also decreasing swelling throughout the body. Replace balsamic vinegar, normal basic cooking oil or butter with extra virgin olive oil. It helps!

Leafy Green Vegetables

Leafy green vegetables contain high folate, which helps increase ovulation. But this element not only works on yourself but also on your partner. For men, what it does is, it helps men to exit healthy sperms. Do not forget to share the food with your partner, and having this will cause them to produce healthier sperms than usual and apparently lowers the chances of miscarriage. This also reduces the chances of the baby suffering from any sort of genetical disease. A certain research at the University of California Berkeley's Public School of Health states that ninety-seven of nonsmoking women have no fertility issue and also that men taking vitamins has twenty percent reduction in producing defected sperms.

Whole Wheat Bread

Complex carbs are more time consuming than the refined ones to digest. This also keeps the insulin level, that is the blood sugar level stable. This is a very big advantage as the increased amount of insulin has the ability to dislocating hormones associated with the reproductive system. A six months Dutch study showed only half of 165 women with big blood sugar level got pregnant, and others failed. While planning to conceive, make sure to take dark bread instead of the light one, brown rice over the white one and general whole wheat pasta.

Pumpkin Seeds

Protein seeds contain a lot of non-heme iron. This is one of the several types of irons which is usually found in certain plant foods and iron contented foods. Studies have shown that women taking iron regularly reduce the trouble of getting pregnant by a whole forty percent. Have toasted pumpkin seed as a snack. Hopefully, that will help.

These were all the different types of food that will hopefully boost your fertility and help you being a mother and bring a new member to your family. But there is also a certain type of food that you need to know about should get avoided while trying to get pregnant. It is anything containing trans fats.

Food that is high in containing this includes baked products, processed products, deep fried foods, etc. This MUST be avoided at any cost while you are attempting hard to being pregnant. These fats have the ability to make insulin less efficient than it should usually be. They do not bid the body react properly with insulin, which will eventually make you more inclined to unbalanced ovulation.

So, these are everything that I had to suggest to a mother who is trying so hard to get pregnant. I badly hope all the dreams come true, all the hopes meet light, all the married couples can be parents when they dream of being one for the first time in their lives. Hope everyone’s dream comes true. With that hope only, wishing you in advance, Happy Parenting!
