First of all you need to determine when
you usually ovulate. There are tests out
there now that can tell when exactly you
are. Two other methods are to monitor
your temperature and your vaginal fluids.
On average a woman ovulates the 14th day
after the first day of her last period.
For example the first day of my last
period (the day I started my last period)
was july 12th. Therefore I should have
started ovulating and was most fertile
around july 26th.
Secondly, after you find out when you
usually ovulate, then have sex daily, or a
couple times a day if possible, starting 3
- 5 days before ovulation is to occur.
Sperm on average live up to three days
within our bodies, sometimes as long as 5
days. By having sex soon before
ovulation even occurs you are giving the
sperm a head start to the fallopian tubes.
So basically the sperm will already be
there in place waiting for that egg to be
released. Have sex everyday starting 3 -
5 days before ovulation and continue until
about 3 - 5 days after ovulation.
Exposing the released mature egg to sperm
everyday during this tme frame will only
increase the chances of it becoming
fertilized.
Third, after having sex make sure you do
what is needed to keep the sperm inside
you. Lay still afterwards on your side
or back. It is suggested that you prop
your rear up on a pillow to elevate it for
this purpose to help keep the fluids from
leaking out.
I am not sure how fertile my fiance' is,
but I know the women in my family, myself
included, are as fertile as the nile
valley! We deided to have children.
Previously I had been on the pill for 11
years. I went off the pill for a year
with my ex husband but never got pregnant.
With the split-up and his filing for
divorce in february I went back on the
pill in march. With my new fiance we
agreed to quit the pill july 12th.
My most fertile day was july 26th. We
started having sex daily july 20th or
21st. Instead of going to clean up
afterwards like I normally do he laid with
himself still inside me for as long as we
could stand it, and then I continued
laying on the bed for about a half hour,
or so. This helped to give the sperm
time to swim upstream...Lol. We did this
everyday until july 30th I think. We are
now expecting around april 23rd.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
