Answer 1

Stay calm and start listening to your body's signs. I read a book (can't remember name) some years ago when i wanted my last baby to be a boy, so i could time intercourse to fit in with most likely time for male sperm to win the race, (yes i got my boy).

I had to watch for signs of change in my discharge, this happens just as ovulation starts, It will become clear and runny (sorry for details) this is a good sign and start having s*x then. Remember not to have s*x too much before ovulation, brew up his sperm so they are at the peak, remember male sperm swims faster but uses all it's energy getting there and dies quickly, whereas female sperm swims slowly but can still be waiting 4 days later for the egg.

Good luck

Answer 2

ok first of all best of luck for this month.this is something my fertility specialist told me.she said anyone who is trying to conceive should start having s*x from the 8th day of ur periods & do it every alternate till u conceive.u should do it on alternate days only & not daily.this way there is no chance of u missing ur fertile days.lots of baby dust to u!!

Answer 4

Have you tried taking your temperature? Body Basal Temperature, throughout your cycle your body temperature changes, lower temperature when your period arrives and higher when you ovulate, I have got long cycles too and this method helps me pin point more or less when I have ovulated and is cheap!!

Have a look in this website,
