Usually from what I heard... 14 days after your period is when your most fertile? But I'm not for sure... I use an app on my iPhone to calculate my ovulation and next period. Its usually pretty accurate

We can't really help you do this because there is not enough information here. I recommend you meet with your doctor or OB nurse and ask them to teach you to monitor and predict ovulation. There are kits available from the pharmacy, too. Even if your periods were always exactly the same duration and you could predict the start to the day, that does not tell you when you ovulate. That can be determined by monitoring mucus, basal body temperature and things of that nature, which your OB can teach you to do. You should see the doctor anyway when you are trying to get pregnant because you will be pregnant before you know you are, and good prenatal care starts before you get pregnant. There are things you should avoid consuming, you should be on prenatal vitamins and if you have any other health issues it's best to know and deal with them upfront.

Phone apps are worthless. The only way to accurately find your ovulation date is to take a daily basal temperature for 6 months to a year, and record all finding to determine your ovulation date.
