the best time to get pregnant

the best time to get pregnant

One of the most frequently asked questions about pregnancy is the best time to get pregnant. It is neither the Christmas time nor the Valentine’s Day. One needs to be good in mathematics if one is serious about getting pregnant as it totally depends on the ovulating days. Now the question arises that how should one calculate this crucial time? For people who are good in mathematics need not worry but others should get hold of an Ovulation Calculator.

It is important to have some knowledge about one’s own body and its functioning in order to find out the probable dates of ovulation. The ‘post ovulation time’ or the ‘Luteal Phase’ is the period between ovulation and the first day of the menstrual cycle. This period consists of fourteen days and is the same for most women. After fourteen days of the ovulation the period starts. Now what one needs to know is the date due for the next period. By counting back twelve to sixteen days from this date, one is likely to get the days of ovulation. Generally, women who have a cycle of twenty eight days, ovulate on the fourteenth day. Since this is so important to know in order to get pregnant, the ovulation date can also be checked through the BBT technique or the Basal Body Temperature. This is a method that involves the recording of vaginal temperature every morning by a BBT thermometer (with a fine calibration). The thermometer displays a higher temperature on the day of ovulation that the other days.

To explain this fact in a simpler way, the egg starts developing from the end of the menstrual cycle and between the 8th to 12th days it is at its maximum. So the chance to get pregnant is the most if one has intercourse on the 8th, the 10th and the 12th day. This is the most effective time to get pregnant. One shocking fact related to getting pregnant is that the egg lives only for a period of 12 to 16 hours in a cycle! Many gynecologists are of the opinion that the life span of the egg ranges from 12 to 24 hours. But the fertility experts say that it is likely to wither away within 15 to 16 hours. So it is important to hit it at the correct time!

Now its time to shift the focus from the Woman to the Man!  If a couple has intercourse on regular basis, it is likely that the strength of the sperms may lack the desired force and the sperm count may also be less than it is required for the fertility level. In addition, the rate of sperm motility may also be hampered. Again, if the sexual union is not so frequent, there are chances that the sperms may become stale and old, making it lack its desired vitality. According to the opinion of the fertility experts, coitus should take place twice weekly for the best result.

It is surprising that tough the female ovum dies within such a short period, the male sperm survives and moves about from 2 to 5 days within the vaginal canal. Keeping this fact in mind, it may be fruitful to have intercourse a couple of days earlier than the date of ovulation, so that the sperm gets plenty of opportunities to hit the egg.

It is important here to point out that following all the above mentioned guidelines may not be enough for getting pregnant. For further assistance, one may turn to holistic remedies that helps find out the actual cause of a problem if there is any and then suggests a remedy that is accurate. These remedies are of a wide range that includes Chinese medications to acupuncture, from exercise to helpful herbs, from lifestyle changes to a healthy and balances diet. Unlike the age-old, conventional therapies which mostly fail, the holistic remedies almost always give the desired results.

Why shouldn’t you use peppermint oil in pregnancy?

I’ve seen lists of what essential oils you can and can’t use in pregnancy, and they seem to say that you shouldn’t use peppermint oil.

Why is this?

Would it make a difference if it was putting a couple of drops of oil on a tissue and breathing in the vapours compared to applying peppermint oil to the skin?

All plants from the mint family are used to start menses. If you are pregnant, that is something you do not want.

So, no sniffing or inhaling or applying or ingesting any mint in any form.

Pregnancy Gift Baskets

My 21 yearold sister REFUSES to talk to me?

Because I got pregnant before she did. I think its such a stupid reason. My pregnancy wasn’t planned, which she claims it was…(She lives in New York; aka the other side of the country..(i live in California) AND she recently moved back to be with family.) Now shes living with us for a Little while, before she moves to a condo in the summer. Im due in June (June 16th). And I have enough stress with a few friends.

Ive had a job since i was 14, and i had no plan to get pregnant, I just have a-lot of money saved. We went to a family meeting session in L.A earlier in the week, and she STILL will NOT talk to me, i wrote her a 4 page paper on how i didn’t not plan my pregnancy, I also made her a little gift basket and everything. Im just about to give up on it, but I want her to be apart of her Nieces life. What else could/can I do?
Im 16. So…

she is probably disappointed in you.. i don’t think it’s b/c you got pregnant first. i am the oldest of 7. and if my 16 year old sister got pregnant, i would be very disappointed in her… and it wouldn’t matter where in the world i lived. she probably wanted more for you. and i was totally feeling you and not understanding what your sisters deal was… but than i saw your age. dude your a kid and that is exactly what her problem is. i do however respect the fact that you are taking responsibility… but in saying that how much can you take when you live at home and how much could you really have saved after only working 2 years…. and you live in the states where minimum wage is peanuts. im sorry darling but babies are very expensive.

back to your sister, i can understand that you have reached out to her with the letter and basket… i say give her time. let her get over it on her own time. i dont know how close you are but it would be a hard thing for me to deal with. I guarantee you when that baby gets here, she will be involved and all this will be in the past. Babies are a wonderful thing no matter what the situation.
good luck and take care of that baby.

Since you arent pregnant yet then you can exercise as much as you want. Even during the first few months exercise does not have to be very limited. Once you get bigger though it will be harder to do certain things. Yoga is a good one. Walking or swimming would be great too.

Does this look like a pregnancy chart to you?

http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/ilovegaz

I’m 14 DPO today. I had a dip and then FF charted me as Triphasic. What do you think? I know a test is the way to be sure but im not testing untill Thursday morning (17 DPO) with FMU on a FR HPT. Just wanted some support in this dreaded wait :)

How is everyone else doing in TTC?

Hey little Miss…I am out this month…AF arrived yesterday :-( Must have run out of baby dust…

I may sign up to FF as its more informative than the site I use….but then I worry I will be looking at it too much! Not sure whether to take some time out as really obsessed over TTC this month after my 2nd MC and think that I have thought about it too much and its gone against me too. Whilst everyone keeps telling me not to think about it….thats easier said than done!

Good luck, I hope you get your BFP – I’ll be watching for your news!

Wii fit yoga for pregnancy?

I am currently 16 weeks pregnant and decided i should do some sort of exercise instead of just sitting on the couch. I do plenty of walking but i am loving the wii fit yoga at the moment.
i was just curious what yoga positions on the wii fit i should avoid or that are particularly good for pregnancy.
or if anybody knows of ANY type of exercise to keep my body fit and strong so i can bounce back quicker after bub is born
thanks

As long as your doctor says it’s okay to exercise you can do whatever you want. Keep in mind that you should always be able to keep up a conversation. If you can’t, slow down so you don’t over exert yourself. Swimming is EXCELLENT for labor and getting your body back. I never got into yoga, but I hear it’s really good as well. And of course walking (and for now jogging or running) is great. If you can do some light weight training that’ll be even better because of course muscle burns the extra fat quicker and when you’re more muscular you skin tends to be more elastic. Also eating a lot of colorful fruits and veggies, drinking plenty of cold water and getting in plenty of calcium are all great ways to get your body ready to bounce back. I’ve barely gained any weight with this pregnancy just because I’ve been eating right and going for walks/jogs. I’ve actually recently stopped the jogging and am only running because the jogging caused me to get a few contractions the other day and it was severely painful. I’m only 30w5d so I gave it up.

Pregnancy Ultrasound Pics Baby

pregnancy ultrasound pics baby
has anyone else had ultrasound measurements off by as much as 4 weeks?

i had an ultrasound done when i was 12 weeks 6 days and found out i was expecting twins…..the issue is that the ultrasound was measuring the babies at roughly 17 weeks…..physically this is impossible as there were only 9 possible conception dates (my fiance lives thousands of miles away and i went to visit him and was the only time that i could have conceived). I am sceduled to go see an ultrasound specialist who manages pregnancies to have a further detailed ultrasound pics taken and measurements done next week and want to know if others have had to go through this type of situation and what the end results ended up being….if i had daily contact with my fiance i could see that maybe this is possibility and we conceived earlier than we thought but in my case this is not even a possibility…..please help cause i am going insane researching this……

If your first scan wasn’t until nearly 13 weeks the ultrasounds could be off. The earlier the scans are done the more accurate they are at predicting age. You know when you got pregnant so I would go with that. After the first few weeks babies can grow at very different rates and they are basing their assessment on averages. I wouldn’t worry about it.

How Do I Flatten My Post Pregnancy Belly? – Getting Your Pre-Baby Body Back

Lots of moms ask the question, “how do I flatten my post pregnancy belly?” Now that you’ve given birth, you are concerned about the way you look. What you need to do first is to take a deep breath and realize that it took awhile to get the weight on and it will take some time to get it off. Rome wasn’t built in a day, but by sticking with a good routine, you will see the results.

So, “how do I flatten my post pregnancy belly?” There are some ways to speed up the process and enable you to see quicker results. Many moms quit their workouts too early or think that they don’t have the time to exercise. By doing the right exercises and doing it efficiently, you can lose weight after pregnancy and keep it off in less time.

A great way to do this is by sticking with a good nutrition program. Learning to eat right is key to losing the pounds. Many moms make the mistake of eating quick meals, but using the wrong ingredients. Use healthy fresh ingredients and stay away from processed, fatty foods. Lots of fresh fruits and veggies along with lean meats are the perfect combination for losing that post pregnancy belly.

Although it might be hard at first to resist the temptation of fast foods, because you are taking care of a baby, don’t let that get in your way of your goal to look and feel your best. Try to find the time when baby is napping or happily playing to prepare meals in advance. Cut up the veggies and prepare meats in advance and you will soon be in a routine that will save you much needed time.

Exercise is also the answer to your question, “how do I flatten my post pregnancy belly?” Another great way to losing the post pregnancy weight is to find an exercise routine that works the entire body. Full body workouts are much more efficient at burning fat and calories and will also give your metabolism a kick. A program that includes squats, v-ups, lunges and dumbbell presses, to name a few, will increase your metabolism and burn calories quicker. By working more areas of your body at once, you save time and will spend less of it on exercise.

About the Author

I hope these tips have inspired you to get out there and start to regain that pre-baby shape you so desire. I am a mom of three and know how hard it can be to motivate yourself to take care of you. Moms are always worrying about everyone else, but tend to neglect ourselves.

Early Pregnancy Signs Symptoms

Are these symptoms early pregnancy signs?

So my fiance and i have TTC for a little while now. Im not due for my period for another 10 days but i noticed today my left areola was very sensative and the duct hurt when i ran up the stairs. And i had a very little pink spotting. Its too ealry to take a HPT so i was just wondering if those are some early symptoms of being pregnant?

It’s too early to be having pregnancy symptoms. You haven’t implanted yet if you are pregnant so maybe there is something else up. I would wait about 7 more days and go ahead and take a cheap test, you can sometimes get an accurate result by then. Good luck and I hope everything is ok!

First Pregnancy Signs Symptoms

first pregnancy signs symptoms
What were YOUR first symptoms/signs of labor?

Im nearing the end of my pregnancy, less than 4 weeks!, and of course read all the books… But not all pregnancies are by the book!

I want to hear what other womens first signs/symptoms were of when they went into labor – and how long from after you got the symptoms did you deliver?

My water broke early in the morning. It was just a trickle then when I stood up it began to uncontrollably leak down my leg. That was how I knew I wasn’t just wetting myself.

I had painless contractions all that day that were anywhere from 2-25 minutes apart.

16 hours after my water broke I started hard contractions. They began feeling just like menstrual cramps then they moved to my back and got stronger. From there I probably don’t have to tell you because by then you’ll know for sure you are in labor…lol!

Pregnancy Yoga For Beginners

pregnancy yoga for beginners
I heard you should avoid certain yoga poses while TTC/pregnancy – is this true?

I’m taking yoga 2x per week (beginner) and I’ve been TTC for 11 cycles (started yoga 2 months ago). I heard you should avoid certain poses while TTC? Is this true? Which ones? How do I avoid them during class so that my co-workers don’t know I’m TTC/early pregnancy?
Heard this on various websites – getting mixed messages :(

Where did you hear that? I have never heard anything like that. If anything, doing yoga and exercising will help you, not hurt you. I wouldn’t worry too much about that. Best of luck!
