Actually your odds are better with having sex during the few days prior to suspected ovulation. As your body prepares for ovulation, the environment will become such that it will allow sperm to survive a few days. It is often better to have the sperm ready and waiting for the egg to be released instead of trying to hit the exact day, since missing ovulation by even a few hours can make a difference.
Keep in mind, charts and predictor kits will give you a rough idea, but it is not always exact, so it can help to be trying at least several days before you think ovulation is likely to occur. Good luck!
