Q: I’ve heard that pregnant women can experience tooth sensitivity, and are at a higher risk for cavities. Why is this, and what can I do to protect my teeth?
A: Pregnancy can cause gastric reflux, which brings acid from the stomach into the mouth. Frequent reflux can cause the erosion of tooth surfaces, contributing to tooth sensitivity. Pregnancy-related alterations in your diet and in your oral hygiene habits could also increase the risk of cavities. After a reflux episode, it’s best to rinse with plain water — avoid tooth brushing for about an hour as the brush could damage any softened enamel. Brushing twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste and flossing is essential to maintaining oral health.

I have never taken a pregnancy test early due to the fact that if you get a ceimhcal pregnancy (Where the egg is fertilized, but doesn't stick) Then you can get a positive result, then negative later when you get your period, so getting your hopes up, and testing early can break your spirits, and be expensive. As far as the OPK, having sex every other day really is best. You need to give time for the sperm to build back up, and since sperm can last inside of you for 72 hours, then you always have fresh ones in there, and waiting to meet the egg. If you wait too long to have sex, then the sperm quality can go down, resulting in no pregnancy, because the sperm was not healthy enough to be able to make it to the egg. It is also better to aim for the day before ovulation, otherwise you can miss your chance as well.Type in The Great Sperm Race To YouTube.. you can understand a lot about conception from that.
