What a man can do about fertility and using his diet as an ally to make a baby is to eat foods rich in zinc.  Couple of foods rich in zinc is red meat and whole grain cereal. These zinc rich foods help in the quality of sperm. This means the odds of making a baby increase with improved quality of sperm.

Watch your weight. Do not become overweight. If you are overweight, eat nutritious meals at servings recommended by the national food guide. Do not go over those serving amounts. Exercise for at least 30 minutes to an hour a day to work off weight is another great thing to add alongside diet. Go to a dietician if in doubt to get advice tailored to your needs if you are in any doubt about your diet.

Butt out the cigarette. Damage to eggs and sperm can happen when you are smoking. It can be reversed in men, though because sperm regenerate every 70 days. But, in a woman, it may reduce her fertility by 40%. What is good about quitting smoking is you can be done with smoking before the baby is ever here, then the baby can have fresh non-smoky air for a great beginning!

Be romantic for a change and don’t think of sex as a biological act just to make that baby. Increase the romance by arranging a night out on the town, such as going out for a romantic dinner for two somewhere and getting in between the sheets soon after you do come home. The additional benefit of this is that it reduces stress. Stress that is normal, like office and job related stress does not usually affect ovulation. Romance is needed to relieve everyday stress if you are looking for a few blissful moments away from stress.

There really are no positions that do promote pregnancy. It doesn’t matter whether or not that you lay still for 30 minutes after intercourse. The sperm that have been deposited have already made it into the cervix; those that are alive and well.

Sexual health is important in the quest to have a baby. Make sure that there is no things like chlamydia. If there is anything like this, then this damages the case for fertility. Once you get antibiotics for this and you have caught the STI early enough, you should then be able to have a baby.
