just about 13-16 days BEFORE her period every woman is different and to tell when you are ovulating there are ovualtion kits you can try im doing them now and they are great !!! you buy them at the drug store or any shop that sells pregnancy stuff... you buy an ovulation kit for 5 days it comes with 5 peeing cups and 5 tests you do one test a day for 5 days at the same time every day.... it sort of looks like a pregnancy test but for ovualtion.... it comes up positive when you are at your highest and that means you are going to ovulate in 24 - 36 hours so you have sex on the day you get a positive and the day after....its worked for alot of women thats just an easier thing to try so that when you know you are most fertile you can plan a romantic evening and just enjoy the night instead of worrying the WHOLE month about making sure that you and your husband had sex on certain days so goodluck and for the future CONGRATS

go to http://www.mymonthlycycles.com and put in your period info and it will calculate when you will be fertile and ovulating.
Q: When is a woman or girl fertile? In other words, what days of the month can she get pregnant?
A: There are days a woman can get pregnant and days when she can't. Figuring out those days is the tricky part. One of the most common ways people try to figure out "safe" and "fertile" days is called the rhythm method. Because of the guesswork involved rhythm is not an effective method of birth control.
The first day of your period is called Day 1. You then count all the days till you get your period again. The total number of those days is the length of your menstrual cycle. Fourteen days after you ovulate (when an egg is ready to meet the sperm) you get your period. That means if you ovulate on Day 20, your cycle will be 34 days total (20 + 14). Or, if you ovulate on Day 8, you're cycle will be 22 days long.
You could assume that because your cycles are usually 28 days that you ovulate on Day 14 (28 minus 14) of your period. But how do you know you are going to ovulate on day 14 of this cycle? The truth is, you don't. Your next cycle may only be 18 days. This means you are going to ovulate on Day 4 (18 minus 14). Because sperm live for about five days, and are viable (strong enough to possibly make you pregnant) for about three days, this means that if you have sex on your period you could get pregnant. Or your cycle may be 35 days this time. This means on Day 21, when you think the egg is no longer going to be around, it's actually ripe and ready to get fertilized and make you pregnant!

In general most women have a 28 day menstrual cycle. Statistically speaking, most would also ovulate on day 14 of their cycle. This means that if they have a period that lasts for five days, they would be most fertile 9 days after their period is due. However, sperm can live inside a woman for up to five days, so she should also be careful for 5 days before ovulation.
Another thing is also, that not all women with a 28 day cycle and 5 day period ovulate on day 14 of their cycle. I ovulated and became pregnant on day 8 of my cycle. I am now 17 weeks along.

You're most fertile 14 days after the first day of your period.

Check out the site below
The first day of a woman's period is 14 days after ovulation. (usually)
Counting days of the cycle is by far the easiest and least technical of all of the methods for tracking ovulation. But, it is really a retrospective indicator. It can tell any woman when her last ovulation was. But, it works well as a predictor for the next ovulation in women whose cycles are very regular. If the woman has a regular cycle, then this method can work for her. For example, if she has a perfect 30-day cycle, she will ovulate on day 16 (30-14=16). Day 1 is the first day of her next period.

All depends on when you ovulate. It's usually 2 weeks after and before. But could be different for anyone. Never take the chance.
