Hello I am trying to get pregnant again.
I have a 3yr old and was suppose to give
birth in november but unfortunately had a
tubal pregnancy and had to get emergency
surgery. So my doctor gave me a paper to
help me telling me to write down my temp
and when it goes up 1 degree then I am
ovulationg. Now how long do you ovulate?
I think my temperature has went up but I
am not sure. She started the chart for me
with the first day of my last period which
was dec 23rd. I am just confused cause I
never used an ovulation chart I just
usually get pregnant you know without
thinking about it. Can someone help me
out on this please. :(

I'm fairly sure the egg only lasts 24
hours. That's why they say have sex a
couple of days before and on the day, so
there's alwasy sperm there waiting!!!

I tried writing down my temps for a
while.. Honestly as far as for me, it did
not work too well. My temp was always up
and down. I personally do not think it is
a very reliable method. But a women
ovulates sometime in the middle of the
month ( so for ex. If her cycles are 28
days.. Then shes ovulating at about the
14th day). My doc told me that the
temperature is raised due to an increase
in lh (a hormonal substance) and then
within 12 hours an egg is released. The
egg is good from 12-24 hours. So it is
cruciual to have sex with that time frame.
Hope this helps...

I Don't Get It! Posted: 03-27-05 14:51pm
This whole ovulating thing is so stupid!
Like if a woman has sex everyday for a
whole month, then she should would have
never missed her ovulation? Why is it
that there is only a 25 % chance of
getting pregnant each month? So, for
those women who do it every day and still
do not concieve does that mean they did
not ovulate? Like this should not be so
difficult!! I see how many of you are so
frustrated.
I haven't try to get pregnant yet, but boy
will it be a bumpy ride.

If you have sex everyday that doesnt
guarantee 100% you will become pregnant.
Actually there is only a 25% a person will
become pregnant even sex is preformed when
ovulation happens. And I agree it
sucks... For some women all this just
happens.. Other need to plan it out
(which can take the fun out of it). I
suggest using ovulation strips that can be
bought online for very cheap (like .35
cents per strip) and testing. They work
just like pregnancy tests. So when you
see two lines have sex that day and then
for the next 2-3 days just to be safe.
After that all you gotta do is wait and
see. Then there is like 1 in 4 chances
you will be pregnant.... Good luck...
And if you have any other questions just
ask or pm me and ill try to answer. I
know quite a bot about this subject
because I am going through all this
myself...
