    Use this as a starting place, but keep in mind that many women do not ovulate within the "norm" and you can miss it if you are focused just on a set period. Look for other signs that your body is preparing for ovulation as well. When you think you have a pretty good idea of when that may be close, start trying in earnest the week or week and a half before through a few days afterwards for good measure. Certainly you can enjoy yourselves at anytime, but maybe engage a bit more often when you suspect ovulation is coming up.

    What are signs that your ovulating? Well me and my husband have sex either every day or every other day so I'm sure we are good there right?

    Sounds like you have the bases covered... :) Some signs for ovulation may be increased cervical mucus that tends to be more watery, clearer, and thinner a few days before ovulation. You may notice some slight cramping low on one side or the other around the time of ovulation... not everyone feels this however, or every cycle. Other changes would be how your cervix feels and its position... takes practice and not always easy to do. Since you have been temping and charting that can help some couples as well. Have you tried an ovulation predictor kit? As with temping/charting, works well for some, not for others.

    No I never tried the ovulation kits. If I'm not pregnant after this month then I will try them. I have been feeling very nautious but I kind of figure there is just a bug or something going around. I hope its more but I know the mind can play games with you too.
