I stopped the pill on the 6th of October and got my period on the 11th of October. My period stopped on the 16th of October. I think I was Ovulating between the 21st of october and the 27th of October and I had sex last night and on saturday and he ejaculated in me. If I have sex on wednesday am I doing the right thing?. Would my chances of becoming pregnant higher?. Even though I stopped taking the pill I have been getting the normal discharge and I think I am fertile!.

Everyone's cycle is different. There is a myth that woman ovulate 14 days after their period begins...but that is only an AVERAGE and each month can be different. The other thing is that sperm can live inside you for up to 5 days.... so if you are having a shortened cycle one month and you have sex right after your period and you ovulate earlier than day 14 than yes, there is a chance of getting pregnant. The only way to know is to know exactly when you ovulate. There are several ways to know and some are more effective than others. Some can only predict before ovulation happens and some can only predict that is has already happened. The absolute best info I can give you is to go read a book called Taking Charge of your fertility by Toni Weschler. It will help you understand your body and all the myths about it. It will help you time when you are ovulating and the best times to conceive – or not! . It's about knowing your body and knowing when you are fertile or not.
My husband and I tried for 1 year and had no luck..… We tried ovulation predictors , laying with pillows under me for 20 min. everything……the first month that I began using the book I realized that my timing was WRONG!. We got pregnant that very first month and I am now due Feb 2, 2007. You can pick and choose what you do with your info. Good luck and don't listen the all the myths! Even if you don't get into charting and everything....it will help you in so many ways!

Your chances will be higher the more you do it during your ovulation time. If you go to http://www.babycenter.com/calculators/ovulation/
and put in the first day of your last period it will give you the days that you are ovulating. In your case it says that you are most fertime Oct 22 to the 1st of Nov. Check this site out and if you are really wanting to get pregnant then do it as much as possible during these days. Good luck!

Get some real medical advice. And quit making it sound like some sort of science project.

Your chances will be better if you have multiple partners. My buddy and I have nothing scheduled for Saturday night...What time do you want us over? I'm sure that your partner wouldn't mind.
