Ovulation Calendar / Pregnancy planner
When are the best days to try for a baby?
(Today is Tuesday, February 14 2012)
About this ovulation calendar
Enter the first day of your cycle,
the length of your menstrual cycle in days, and
press the `Tell me the dates!` button.
The days given are based on the average. Take plus or minus 3 days to be sure, also make sure you've read the following note.
Note that you are most fertile around the ovulation, the day your egg is released. This doesn't mean that you aren't fertile on other days!
You can get pregnant at any day of your cycle:
`Safe` Days In Menstrual Cycle
Guidelines for getting pregnant -- or avoiding pregnancy -- usually assume an average woman is fertile between days 10 and 17 of her menstrual cycle. But researchers at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences have demonstrated what some accidentally pregnant women may have long suspected:
Only about 30 percent of women actually have their fertile window entirely within that timespan.
In fact, the researchers found, there is hardly a day in the menstrual cycle during which some women are not potentially fertile. Women in this study were of prime reproductive age (most between 25 and 35) when the menstrual cycles are most regular. The window of fertility should be even more unpredictable for teenagers or for women approaching menopause

Hi ladies! I thought I would pop in and say hi. I haven't been on much because I am not supposed to TTC for another month and quite frankly it's a little depressing, but I think of everyone a lot. Angelic, I know, it is so stinking hard! It just breaks your hard to lose your little ones even though they never got very far along. I just got a puppy to help me deal with it all. good luck to all of the rest of you, I hope there are some BFP's soon!

cd 1 for me today. ah the ttc journey continues. i know i shouldnt let it bother me. i should just relax and yada yada yada but seems how 5 of my friends are pregnant....its hard.
ive never had trouble conceiving exept when i had pcos when i was 18 and it took me losing weight to get pg. so.....seems how im about 80 lbs over weight, maybe i should try to shed some pounds and see what happens. but im the same weight as i was when i conceived my last baby.....i dunno. but my hub is gonna be 39 this year and im now 28 so its gonna get harder as time goes on

mommyryan - stop trying! those that 'actively' try dont seem to fall pregnant as a mate of mine said she didnt start trying for a baby, she just stop not trying for a baby, u are putting pressure on urself that u dont need, it may sound really silly but its true

i think im out for this month. BFN again today and im super duper edgy, like.......verrrrrry hormonal and i dont think id be this way if i was pg. af is due monday so an early test (used answer) should have picked up hormone by now wouldnt you think? and my bbs arent even that sore. and my legs are swollen (happens before i start and all through af)
im so severely down in the dumps right now that i just want to cry. ive never had a prob getting pg, and its been 3-4 months of actively ttc. i know i shouldnt complain because lots of people wait wayyyy longer than that, so i guess this is a very humbling experience but im still so sad. i really wanted my dec baby
