Question

My husband and I have been trying for awhile... I need so helpful tips....... Also i had my period Dec 13 when should i ovualte this month????

and i have my period every 29 to 31 days?

Answer 1

The best thing to do to find out when you are ovulating is buying one of those home ovulation tests. I have heard they really do work. Also, every woman is very different and the ovulation charts don't always work, trust me..

As for trying.. there are a few tips that I have heard:
1. Boxers are out of the question, he needs to keep his boys warm and close..
2. Spit kills sperm, don't use it as a lubricant
3. Smoking tobacco/taking any drug can lower his sperm count
4. Being overweight can greatly decrease your chances of getting pregnant

Answer 2

Have you told your gynecologist that you have been trying this long? He/she may want to do some medical testing just to make sure that everything is working properly.

My husband and I tried for a while using the technique of tracking ovulation and it never worked for us that way. We gave up trying like that. Under advisement from my doctor, we started having sex every other day because that way there is no way to miss when I ovulate. We did it that way for 6 weeks and ended up pregnant.

You should talk with your doctor. He/she will be able to give you good advice and help you with tracking your ovulation.

You should ovulate mid-cycle... so going by your 29-31 day cycle... counting Dec 13 at the first day of your cycle, you should ovulate somewhere between the 25th and the 29th. You only want to have sex once a day during this period as it takes the male body 24 hours to fully replenish sperm.

Good Luck!!!

Answer 3

We will go with 30 day period. So 30 days minus 14 days equals day 16. Day 16 is when you should ovulate. So Dec 13th plus 16 days equals the 29th. You should ovulate on the 29th. Try picking up an ovulation kit and begin testing around the 26th. If you can't afford a $20 ovulation kit from Wal-Mart, then you can't afford a baby. It will help you determine for sure and then have sex on Dec. 26 thru Dec 31st everyday.

Answer 4

Have you seen an OB-GYN doctor yet? They usually say that you should see a doctor for help if you've been trying for more than a year. She can do a physical and some blood tests to make sure everything is normal with you. If everything looks normal, get your husband checked. Your doctor can also teach you how to take your basal body temperature to predict when you will ovulate and all sorts of other good information. Good luck!

Answer 5

I would recommend that you get day 3 labs to see if you have any hormonal problems that may be contributing to your inability to conceive. These labs are drawn on day 3 of menstrual bleeding. The labs taken include estrogen, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and lutinizing hormone (LH). Also...please keep in mind that male factor may also play a factor and your hubbie may also need to get his sperm tested. Since women ovulate during different times, I would recommend using an over the counter ovulation prediction kit. Good luck!!

Answer 6

Most women ovulate around day 14 of their cycle (14 days after the first day of your period). But we all don't.

There are various ways to tell when and if you're ovulating. I take my temp every morning and chart it so as to pinpoint my exact day of ovulation. In my case, however, it's to avoid getting pregnant! But it works the other way around too.

Try an ovulation predictor kit or buy the book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility." You'll learn alot of valuable information.

Answer 7

After 15 months you must be very worried. If tests on your husband reveal that he is the cause, what will you do? Or if it is you and you have checked your base temp every day, done every healthy thing you can do and consulted your Ob-Gyn Dr. then how can you still be confused? Trying means trying.

Answer 8

I think right now should be a good time according to ovulation charts. You can search ovulation chart online and a ton will come up. If you are not charting when you need to do it then you might just miss the whole time frame. Go to your Dr. too
