Fertile Window: --A few days each menstrual cycle that conception is possible. --You can get pregnant from sex just before ovulation and the day of ovulation --HOWEVER, considering 6 days of your fertile window is overly optimistic. Basically, don't count on it. Most pregnancies are from sex two days before and the day of ovulation. --Understanding and finding your fertile window is the MOST important factor to TTGP. --Fertile windows are UNIQUE. Find your own fertile window by charting. Fertility Signs: --Estrogen is high before ovulation, progesterone is high after ovulation --Primary sign of estrogen is cervical fluid --Primary sign that ovulation has passed is BBT. --Cervical fluid becomes wet and stretchy closer to ovulation. (Raw egg white texture) Fertility Charting Basics: --You need to chart the following: BBT at resting time, your period, when you have sex, cervical fluid --Cycle begins on first day of AF, any time of the day --BBT should be taken immediately after waking, same time each day, without much movement --Blue dots show temperature curve, red line showing ovulation. If you are NOT pregnant then your temperature will drop towards the end of your cycle. |
