Isn't it true that a sperm can live inside you for nine days?

you need to be ovulating , yes. Because if you egg isn't matured than it cannot be fertilized.

yes or have to have sex about 3-5 days before ovulation or 1 day after. sperm can live inside of u for 3-5 days. so for instance if u have sex on the 12th and ovulate on the 16th u can get pregnant. or if u ovulate on the 16th and have sex on the 17th then u can very well get pregnant because the egg is fertile for 24-48 hours. Good Luck!

Yes, you need to be ovulating. However, sperm can live in the body for 48 hours; so, if you have sex a couple of days before you ovulate there is a chance you could get pregnant.

Yes, or close enough (within a couple of days before or after) to ovulation that the sperm can get to the egg.

sort of...sperm can survive like 48 hours so you don't have to be ovulating when you have sex, just around that time, and it's never guarenteed when you will ovulate, you'll get, at best, a close estimate, so use condoms.

yes. theres actually only one day in the month when you can get pregnant, so just have sex everyday. or you can always adopt a lonely child

not necessarily at the time of ovulation(check spelling). there are numerous records of pregnancy that did not occur at that precise time. for more information go to sites like med.com. you wont believe how many times it can occur
