We are trying for our first and im so confused about the timing thing. My cycle is around 30 days. Which days are actually the best to try? would love to hear what helped you ladies conceive.
It's the fertile window around ovulation, but cycles differ for everyone so the exact day varies. If you've been trying a while without luck, a gynac can pinpoint ur ovulation with a scan. Dont stress too much in the meantime.
We are trying too and i was also confused about this. People told me the days before ovulation are best. Im tracking my cycle now to figure out the right days. Hope it works for both of us.
I'd say download a period tracker, it predicts ur fertile window for u. Ovulation strips also help a lot, they show your peak days. Having intercourse on those days every alternate day worked for us.
Just a gentle note, if your periods are irregular like mine were with PCOS, the usual mid cycle calculation may not be accurate. In that case better to get ovulation tracked by a doctor instead of guessing dates.
The fertile days are around ovulation, so roughly the 5 days leading up to it and the ovulation day itself. For a 28 day cycle thats around day 10-16. Both times i conceived by tracking these days.
