Tips On Getting Pregnant

WHAT IS CONCEPTION?

First of all, the ovum (or egg) is released from the ovary where it travels down the fallopian tube, at the mouth of the fallopian tube, fertilization occurs and the egg starts to divide. The egg the becomes implanted in the uterus wall... this is considered to be the moment of conception because if the fertilized egg doesn’t implant itself in the uterus then the uterus lining will come away and the egg will be discharged in the course of normal menstrual bleeding.

At the time of ovulation, the woman’s body begins to produce slightly elevated amounts of the hormone called progesterone. This hormone is responsible for the nourishment of the baby until the placenta is formed and takes over the task. The egg has a period of about 12 hours to become fertilized before it dries up. If it is fertilized within this time then the levels of progesterone will continue to increase as the lining of the uterus wall continues to thicken.

To help you understand a little more about the process of getting pregnant and thus increase your chances of conception here is a breakdown of the female monthly cycle;

The cycle starts on 'Day One' which is the first day of bleeding of the menstrual period. This normally lasts for 5 days or so.

This is followed by about 5 days know as the 'Dry Days' (days 6-11). You are not menstruating nor are you fertile, you body is simply getting ready to release the egg.

There now follows your most fertile period. The body normally releases the egg between days 12 to 18. Making love with your partner once every 2 days during this period should render a high possibility of getting pregnant.

Days 19 to 28 are the final days of the cycle, not fertile days making it highly unlikely to result in pregnancy.

Some women have cycles of more or less days than 28 and also some women have irregular cycles. The time from ovulation up to the first day of the next cycle is known as the 'Luteal Phase'. This in nearly all women is HIGHLY regular. It is a set number of days each month (usually 14 though in some women it may be between 12 and 18). So if you are irregular then the irregular part of your period falls within the so called 'dry days' If you are aware of when you ovulate then you can be sure that your period will occur exactly the number of days of your luteal phase after.


OVULATION

The majority of women are not aware when they are ovulating but it can be perceived. There are a few little tell tale signs you might want to look out for;
Slight abdominal pains, usually emanating from the area around the ovary which is ovulating and may be felt as a irritating pricking sensation. This sensation is probably a result of blood or fluid from the ruptured follicle.
Another sign is a thinning of the vaginal mucus which allows the sperm to travel freely through it as opposed the thicker mucus which is produced at non fertile times.
One more sign to be noted if the vaginal temperature is being measured daily using the BBT method is that a notable increase in temperature will be noted around the time of ovulation.

The optimum time to make love is just as ovulation occurs or better still when it is imminent. If you observe your cycle for a few months with some of the preceding points in mind, then hopefully after a while you will be able to tell when you are ovulating and make love accordingly to increase your chances of becoming pregnant.

BEST OF LUCK:)

Answer 3

Yes you can get pregnant right before your period. Usually you ovulate 2 weeks before your period I did not know that until about a month ago. I always thought right before your period and right after were the best times to get pregnant.

Answer 4

Before your period starts? The timeline is after your period you will ovulate 14 days later so count from the last day of your period to day 14 have intercourse 4 days before day 14.

Answer 5

No you cannot because ovulation has already occured and it is blood anyway. You are most fertile between days 10-16 of you menstrual period because that's usually when ovulation occurs so the egg can be fertilized at ovulation.

Answer 6

honestly have sex like three to four times a day unprotected a couple days before and after your period.

Answer 7

yes, because you are most fertile, 10 days before your period, and 10 days after your period.

Answer 8

Try every day, or just get one of those ovulation tests. they tell you when you are ovulating, so you know the best time of the month to try.

Answer 9

its possible but only by a slim chance. you ovulate at about day 14 of your cycle

Answer 10

No you can't get before
