    Please understand that we do this for free on our own spare time. I have been at the doctor's office since your original post and nowhere near a computer.

    Now, it might help if you tell us which sites you have already visited so that we don't duplicate our efforts by telling you to go to a site in which you have already been to.

    Just using one of those .com calculators will not accurately help you predict your ovulation. If you're using the ones I'm thinking of, you just put in the date of your last period and it "calculates" your ovulation time.

    This can be inaccurate because no cycle is the same and ovulation can happen at anytime, though most commonly between days 12 - 18.
    Try FertilityFriend.com or the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility to learn real ways to identify your ovulation by recognizing your own bodily changes.

    Hi ,

    I used WhenMyBaby - Pregnancy Test Calculator.

    And sorry for pushing a bit, but I am really very scared.I heard so many things about infertility that m feeling very bad... I don't want to be that bad luck one :(...

    And is it normal that after we start trying for baby , period can become irregular?.
    From 5th day I missed period and slight cramp starts in rightside lower abdomen... is it normal?

    That web site MAY help you determine it, but its no guarantee. Check out the sources I mentioned above and you will learn what your cycle days mean and how your body is acting... not just a generalized statement on that website calculator.

    Your periods became irregular after Trying to conceive? Have you been on birth control? If so, how long has it been since you stopped?

    Just so you know, 2 months is NOT a long time when Trying to conceive. Healthy couples can average up to a year of trying before getting pregnant. On average, women only have a 25% chance of getting pregnant during each cycle.

    If you just came off birth control, depending on which type, it can take several months to work its way out of your system.

    P.S. Have you started taking prenatal vitamins yet? If not, please do so immediately.

    Well, here is the history,

    I got married in Nov 2003, we used condoms as birthcontrol , no otherthings... now we are trying for Trying to conceive for last 2 months... atleast I followed last month properly, I hope so...

    But this I can say surely that as soon as we started Trying to conceive last 2 months , my period become irregular... 1st month it was 11 days late (we were very positivev that I'm pregnant)... not this month I am already 5 days late , today morning I did HPT and it came out negative... tats why m telling its become irregular... previouly it use to apprea by 31st day positively...

    So is this normal?. I m not sure... Please guide...
    Yes I started taking multivitamins with folic acid... daily once

    Trying to conceive will not change your periods. Nope.

    BUT, the stress of trying and hoping to become pregnant WILL affect your cycle.

    As has been said, you have only been trying for 2 months. It can take many couples up to a year of actively trying to become pregnant.

    Thanks, another imp question... do I have to try each day ? Is this the best way?

    Should I visit doctor this month or just try another month and then visit Doc ?

    I do also had stress last few month , that's true...
    Another question came into mind... during Trying to conceive, do I have to take soecial care and do little work I mean do I have to take proper rest kind of?.

    Thanks again... I found this forum quite helpful after discussing with you people... I can't explain how it feels when you are alone and you have lots of questions...
    Thanks a ton...

    Sex every other day gives you a better chance at conceiving than every day. No reason to visit the doctor yet, unless it is time for your yearly physical.

    No special care other than taking prenatal vitamins containing folic acid now.

    Are you testing using first morning urine? It is best to test first thing in the morning.

    Yes , I tested first morning urine...

    I am just thinking about timing of intercourse... we usually did at night... Here is date..

    Last period is 4th Dec, Avg CL is 31, we did intercourse 14th, 15th, 16th, 18th... what you think is it proper?

    P.s last month Period got late for 11 days...

    Please don't mind I am asking straight forward... like this... but just want to know what is the best way... I heard that sparm stays 24 hr is it true?

    I'm not sure I understand this. I am guessing English is not your first language.

    Every other day is best as it takes at least 24 hours for the sperm count in a man to build back up in numbers.

    Sperm can live in a healthy inviting vaginal environment for 3 - 5 days.
