Couples who intend to conceive a baby would do well to time their lovemaking. There is an optimum time for enjoying sexual intercourse that increases the chances of conception. However, to be able to do this it is important to know when your spouse is ovulating.

Ovulation in your spouse is determined by her menstrual cycle. The popular belief that ovulation occurs mid-cycle is not really true.

• Ovulation generally occurs about 14 days before she get her period.

• Women who have a 28-day cycle will thus ovulate mid-cycle.

• A woman with a 35-day menstrual cycle will, ovulate closer to day 21, and not mid-cycle.

These are some of the signs that your spouse is ovulating:

• Tenderness in her breasts

• An uncomfortable feeling in the abdomen

• Increase in discharge from the vagina

• Increase in body temperature of up to 1 degree Fahrenheit

If you are planning a baby, the ideal time to have sexual intercourse is one or two days before your spouse ovulates and again on the actual day of her ovulation. Having sexual intercourse on other days is fine. However, you need to ensure that you don’t inadvertently leave out the days around her ovulation. This is because:

• The period while sperms remain alive is about two to three days.

• In contrast, the egg remains for only about half to one day.

• Having sex one or two days before and on the day of the ovulation ensures that there is enough healthy sperm in the fallopian tube at ovulation.

Tips for planning a baby

Conception depends on the successful completion of three processes: ovulation, fertilization of the egg by the sperm, and division of the fertilized egg after which it attaches itself to the uterus.

These are things couples can do to ensure a successful conception:

Have a general health checkup : Couples who are trying to conceive should undergo a routine medical examination to ascertain if they are in good physical health.

Maintain an exercise routine : Regular exercise helps couples planning a baby, to stay healthy. It increases their ability to relax, promote sound sleep, and fight physical and mental stress. This will increase their chances of conceiving a baby.

Eat well : Having a balanced diet, that will provide them with all the essential nutrients they require, is important for couples to conceive a baby.

Avoid smoking and alcohol: Alcohol or smoking can interfere with healthy sperm production and hamper successful conception.

Tracking the woman’s menstrual cycle : This will help couples to time sexual intercourse to coincide with ovulation. Having sex during this time is important for successful conception to occur.

Many future dads are a bit confused about their role in their spouses’ pregnancy. If you are one of them, here are some pregnancy planning tips to tell you what you can do.

Ovulation And Conception

The alarming rate of infertility among couples calls for extensive efforts and attention based on data from any woman who is serious about getting pregnant. Most women, and sometimes this partners, would want to discover when ovulation and implantation occurs, what is the better time for intercourse to achieve pregnancy and probably how are the common miscarriage or pregnancy expense rates. Most often, the figures and information women are issued are founded upon averages, theoretical ranges or sometimes just plain guesses. Ovulation And Conception

This is because, ovulation, conception and implantation of fertilized ovum are a difficult topic to scientifically investigate, due to several human factors.Timing the ovulation period is a very important step towards getting pregnant. With the latest scientific improvements, several methods and tests are available for determining, with a high degree of certainty, when your ovulation occurs. Pelvic ultrasound, looking at the ovaries, is the known standard in ovulation prediction researches, but obviously, in a practical situation of a woman trying to conceive, ultrasound is not feasible. A very important test which measures urinary LH has been shown to have a 100% correlation with ultrasound as far predicting timing.

In a study, cervical mucous change only had a correlation of 48%, salivary ferning has 37% correlation and Basal Body Temperature charts correlated 30% with ultrasound ovulation prediction. You would, therefore, agree that those ovulation prediction tests are actually worth the headache. For home use, ovulation detection kits that measure urinary LH surge just before ovulation, detection of LH occurs at above 30mIU/ml. This shows that even women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), with slightly higher resting LH values will still have accurate ovulation detection. The urinary LH surge occurs between 24-36 hours before ovulation.

It is very important and useful for women seriously seeking conception because it gives you a window of warning. The test will show positive for a day or two and on rare occasions, three days, if you are lucky enough to catch the increase right at the beginning, when it is always a large release of hormone. With timing and predicting ovulation out of the way, the next important thing is when is the best time for intercourse, in order to get pregnant? A research report conducted in 1995 demonstrated that pregnancy only occurs if intercourse occurs within 6 days prior to and including ovulation day. Intercourse after the day of ovulation is not likely to result in pregnancy.

The probability of conception ranged from 10% when intercourse occurred five days before ovulation to 33% when it occurred on the day of ovulation itself. This information suggests, therefore, that the best timing of intercourse for a woman seeking pregnancy, with a 28 day cycle would be days 10, 12, 14 and in cases of late ovulation, day 16. But if your cycle is longer or shorter than 28 days, the best timing for intercourse would be days -4, -2, 0, +2 with respect to the expected ovulation day. Ovulation And Conception

After a keen ovulation timing and rounds of rigorous workout on the bed, you would definitely want to know if you’ve been successful. Most home use pregnancy tests that check urine beta HCG hormone are sensitive to a 20-25mIU/ml of HCG. The general applicable rule is to test for pregnancy when you are a day late for your menses or around 15 days after ovulation. The test would normally be positive anywhere from about 2-3 days before a missed menses to 4-5 days after. The usefulness of testing for pregnancy really does depend upon how regular your menses are, or in effect, how regularly your ovulation occurs.

It won’t make sense testing on day 15 after ovulation, or 28 days after the onset of the last menses, if you have a cycle that’s longer than 28 days or varies several days each month. Getting pregnant is one thing, carrying the pregnancy to term, without losing it, is another important thing. The time of implantation into the uterine lining plays an important role in pregnancy loss. It was generally believed that a pregnancy implants itself in the uterine lining on the 7th day after ovulation. But recent studies have shown that this is rarely the case. The study accurately determined the day of implantation by a very sensitive pregnancy test, HCG measurement compared to ovulation.

The HCH hormone starts being produced when the fertilized ovum implants into the uterine lining. Findings from normal women trying to conceive showed that the first appearance of HCG, hence implantation, occurred 6-12 days after ovulation. 84% of the pregnancies evaluated implanted 8-10 days after ovulation and early pregnancy loss was shown to increase with later implantation. The study showed early pregnancy loss and day of implantation as thus: – 13% of pregnancy loss implanted on day 9 – 26% on day 10 – 52% on day 11 – 86% on day 12 or more. The overall total pregnancy loss up to 6 weeks was put at 25%.

That may seem very high to most people, but it is important to remember that many of these pregnancy losses occur at the time that the women involved wasn’t even aware of the presence of the pregnancy. The normal pregnancy loss rate that most women know about is only about 15-18% of clinically recognized pregnancies making more than 40% of pregnancy loss unrecognized. Start raising a family!
