đ Understanding Conception
The Fertile Window
The fertile window is the three-day window during which the probability of a woman conceiving is highest. Conception is usually defined as the initiation of pregnancy, when an egg is fertilized. This can occur either through in vitro fertilization, or sexual intercourse.
In the case of sexual intercourse, sperm remains viable inside a woman's body for up to 5 days (possibly 7 days in some cases). As such, when attempting to conceive, regular sexual intercourse 5 days before as well as on the day of ovulation, can increase the probability of successfully conceiving.
Love and Childbearing
The desire to have a child is all about love for your partner, and for the child you will watch grow up. Deep as this desire is in most couples, life often gets in the way. We stress and worry as a result of work, and spend most of our time dealing with day-to-day distractions.
Yet, the first thing to know when you are trying to have a baby is that regular sex with your partner is the best preparation of all. When you are trying to have a baby, you should make love regularly - at least 2 to 3 times a week.
Making the Fertility Window Work for You
With a pattern of regular lovemaking achieved, the next thing to do is identify that handful of days directly prior to, and including the day of ovulation. Identifying this "window" will significantly boost your chances of conception.
The above conception calculator can help with the process of tracking your personal biological cycle, and thereby assist you in determining your fertility window. To use the calculator, note the first day of your last period and the length of your cycle.
Follow Your Feelings
Many women find the tracking process attractive, as a means to get closer to their own bodies. But some women find the charting too stressful. With so many things to worry about in life, they may not care to add another.
If stress is an issue, experts say that you should just try to have sex every two days as a minimum. If you can keep that going, you have an excellent chance of hitting a day when your body conditions are favorable.
