ovulation calendar

If you’re trying to get pregnant, an ovulation calendar might be just what you need to help you achieve your goal of having a baby. There are many websites that have them and they are easy to use. Just enter the date of the first day of her last menstrual period and it will show you the day she can expect her to be ovulating. That would be the day of love to have sex to try to get pregnant. Also, it’s also good to have intercourse the days before and the day after ovulation because the suggested date may not be the actual day the egg is released and you want to make sure you cover all bases.

An ovulation calendar can also help women avoid pregnancy, although it is not a foolproof method of birth control and should be used in conjunction with another form of protection, such as a condom. It is interesting to see the patterns a woman’s cycle follows, however many women experience erratic menstrual cycles and therefore may not ovulate regularly. In general, a menstrual cycle lasts between twenty-eight and thirty days, plus or minus one or two days. Sometimes stress affects the timing of a woman’s period. And trying to have a baby can be a stressful time. Her period may be a month late and she may be convinced that she is indeed expecting, only to discover a few days later that her cycle has started again and she must try again.

You may want to check an ovulation calendar to see if the crampy pain you feel mid-cycle is occurring at the time it says the egg is released. Many women notice this as a symptom of ovulation, and you may not notice it until you check your calendar.

In my opinion, an ovulation calendar is a great tool to use when trying to get pregnant. I used one and it worked for me!
