    Online ovulation dates are fairly well worthless. Many women do not ovulate so many days after a period, They may ovulate at various times. So only by properly tracking ovulation though medical means, such as temp and other changes.

    But there is always a chance of pregnancy, so yes there is a chance

    I'd like to help but I can't seem to understand what you are trying to say. Please type in complete words and sentences as the site requires.

    Actually you can know when it is, if you properly track it. But it is not done with online apps.

    Please don't use texting shorthand. Many of us don't text or chat and don't understand the abbreviations. The site requires use of complete words and sentences.

    Typically women ovulate 12 - 14 days after their period. But that is not always the case. Ovulation is not an exact science. Ovulation trackers via apps or the Internet should not be considered reliable, although they can be helpful if used over several months. The best method is still the basal body temperature combined with monitoring cervical mucous changes.

    Oh goodness girl. It takescthe average healthy couple up to s year or more of actively trying before conception happens. For now make sure you are living a healthy lifestyle and make sure you are taking prenatal vitamins.

    Rocortions? Every couple is different. If you compare yourself to your friends you are only setting yourself up for frustration and disappointment.

    Procortions? Every woman is different... every pregnancy is different. You can't compare yourself to your friends OR your previous pregnancy.
