You are fertile around ovulation which occurs approximately 14 days before menses in women who have 28 day cycles. However, cycles of 24 to35 days are considered normal (Williams, 2001).

You will be able to determine your fertility by observing thickening (increased viscosity) in vaginal mucous which facilitates the movement of sperm.

Research by Wilcox et al (1995) found that intercourse a day after ovulation did not result in any pregnancies while intercourse on the day of ovulation or two days prior to ovulation had 35% chance of conception.

These emotions not only create magical beginnings for baby, but they are also nourish your body and enhance your sense of security, optimism and openness….all of which support conception and success in pregnancy.

You may find yourself with the very strong urge from within to take action (make love) at a particular moment…coupled with a sense of the ‘rightness’ of this action…and a peace and joy around the possibility of conception.
