How to Get Pregnant Fast - How to Get Pregnant

So you want to get pregnant, fast? There are a few things you can try if you are trying to get pregnant:

Understand your menstrual cycle

Your menstrual cycle is the number of days between the first day of your period and the first day of your next period. Ovulation, or the release of an egg from the ovary, typically occurs around the 14th day of a 28-day menstrual cycle. This is the time when you are most likely to get pregnant because the egg is available to be fertilized by sperm. 

To track your menstrual cycle, you can use a calendar, an app, or a basal body temperature chart.

Have regular, unprotected sex

To increase your chances of getting pregnant, it is important to have regular, unprotected sex every two to three days during your fertile window. The fertile window is the time when you are most likely to get pregnant, and it typically occurs in the days leading up to and including ovulation. 

It is also important to use a lubricant that is sperm-friendly, as some lubricants can kill sperm or make it more difficult for them to swim.

Maintain a healthy lifestyle

Maintaining a healthy weight, eating a well-balanced diet, and avoiding tobacco and excessive alcohol consumption can all increase your chances of getting pregnant. Being overweight or underweight can disrupt ovulation and make it more difficult to get pregnant. 

Eating a healthy diet that is rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can help regulate your menstrual cycle and support fertility. Avoiding tobacco and excessive alcohol consumption can also improve your chances of getting pregnant.

Visit a fertility specialist

If you have been trying to get pregnant for a year or more without success, it may be a good idea to visit a fertility specialist. They can help diagnose and treat any underlying fertility issues. 

A fertility specialist may recommend treatments such as fertility drugs to stimulate ovulation, intrauterine insemination (IUI), or in vitro fertilization (IVF) to help you get pregnant.

In conclusion

It's important to keep in mind that getting pregnant can take time, and there is no guaranteed way to get pregnant quickly. It's always a good idea to talk to a healthcare provider about your specific situation and any concerns you may have.

How To Become a Member of Freemason - Things You Need to Know

 


In order to be eligible for membership, you must be a man who is of good character, who believes in a Supreme Being, and who is at least 18 years old.

  • The process for becoming a member of Freemasonry varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, but there are some general steps that are followed in most places. Here is a general overview of the process:
  • Find a lodge: You can find a lodge near you by contacting the Grand Lodge in your jurisdiction or by looking online.
  • Contact the lodge: Once you have found a lodge that you are interested in joining, you should contact the lodge and express your interest in becoming a member. The lodge will provide you with information about the membership process and may schedule an initial meeting with you.
  • Attend an information session: Many lodges hold informational sessions for individuals who are interested in joining the fraternity. These sessions are typically held to provide potential members with information about Freemasonry and to answer any questions they may have.
  • Submit an application: If you are interested in joining a lodge after attending an information session, you will be required to complete an application form. This form will typically ask for basic personal information, such as your name, address, and date of birth, as well as your occupation and your religious beliefs.
  • Meet with the lodge: After submitting your application, you may be invited to meet with the members of the lodge to discuss your application and to answer any questions they may have.
  • Complete an initiation ceremony: If your application is accepted and you are approved for membership, you will be required to complete an initiation ceremony. This ceremony is a symbolic ritual that marks your acceptance into the fraternity and is typically followed by a period of study and learning about the principles and teachings of Freemasonry.

It is important to note that the process for becoming a member of Freemasonry can vary depending on the jurisdiction and the individual lodge. It is recommended that you contact a local lodge for more specific information about the membership process.

What Next for Musalia Mudavadi - The Three Sad Truths?

After what looked like a union with UDA during ANC National Delegates Conference, ANC leader, Musalia Mudavadi has lowered his chances of ever being elected Kenya's President in this year's General Elections, not unless the Deputy President and UDA's leader, Dr. William Ruto shelves his presidential ambition and support him.

But is that even possible?

Many people appear to agree that Mudavadi might have committed political suicide, a reality that will unfold as days go by!

With the planned Joint ANC/UDA/Ford Kenya rallies; starting with Nakuru, then Western and Mt. Kenya, it will be interesting to watch how the joint campaigns will be conducted.

But here are the three sad truths:

  • Without Mudavadi in OKA, OKA is heading nowhere. It's an empty shell. 
  • If Mudavadi wants to be Kenya's President come August 2022, its clear as day and night that he cannot deputize anyone.
  • Wetangula has never shown any interest in the Presidency. He just wants to be part of the system. But he is a calculative and eloquent politician. That's an add on.

One Hidden Secret of the Handshake

Until now, many people continue to speculate about the details of the handshake deal between H.E President Uhuru Kenyatta and opposition leader Raila Odinga. Weirdly, no one can tell the actual contents of the deal, except the two.
the 'handshake' | picture courtesy
Every time the question on what’s in the deal pops up, the immediate reference is directed towards the building bridges initiative committee, whose terms of reference isn’t yet clearly known to the public.

But many can now attest that there is true calm in the country as a result of the famous handshake. Equally, there is a new zeal to tackle both impunity and corruption, a true legacy that President Kenyatta will most definitely be remembered for, in his last term in the office.

One secret of the handshake lies in the 2022 elections. Raila will present himself, again, for another fight at the Presidency. But will he receive the support of the President?

Donald Trump
Having been re-elected by a landslide of more than 76% of total votes cast, Russia's President Vladimir Putin got another nod to became the country's President for a fourth term, on a six year term.

Notably, Putin faced no strong challenger in the polls, with the country's main opposition challenger Alexei  Navalny barred from contesting. This prompted the European observers to note that although the polls were efficiently conducted, there was deficit of genuine choice for the voters.

While congratulating Putin, Trump went on record stating that  "the arms race between the US and Russia is getting out of control... but we will never allow anybody to have anything close to what we have".

Vladimir Putin
Trump further stated that he hope meeting Putin in the so distant future to discuss among other things, the arms race issue.
