Did you 'try' and if so, did you use a predictor or did you just try whenever?
I wonder about all this.
My friend got pregnant the day AFTER her period.
Another one of my friends got prego 3 days after her period. hmmmmm?

Re: Conception ?
My cycle is very regular, so we focused on mid-cycle.

Re: Conception ?
Niha did you just (pardon the expression) do it in the middle or pick days?

Re: Conception ?
The first time I got pregnant, I knew which days I was ovulating and we got 'busy' on the 7th, 9th, 11th, 13th and 15th day -- lucky Joe!
This time around, I wasn't mentally ready to start trying again, but somehow managed to pick the right day w/o knowing it!!! And we only did it the one time!
So, in answer to your question, I didn't need to buy any kit because you can set your clock to my period!! I wonder if it'll be that way after I have the baby?
Good luck!!!

Re: Conception ?
I think we tried to pick the days just before I was going to O. So, if I was expecting to O (based on CM and previous months' temps) on day 14, I tried to start DTD on day 11 or 12. Does that make sense?

I used the TCOYF book and it worked for me. Charting for one month and I was pg. I tried for 3 months prior- no charting and nothing happened. The book explains about getting pg the day after your period. Chances are your friend's ovulation was delayed. You can get a 'period' and not ovulate.

Everyone's different, right? DH and I simply stopped using birth control and after 2 months, I was PG. I barely had a chance to crack the binding on the TCOYF book - never charted, never took one temp!

Re: Conception ?
Jenn you should start this month and keep track of your period. Then when you want to start trying you have basically a head start. They say to try every other day from about a week after you end your period. OPK work ok.. temperature charting is great too. Its so acurate, every month right before you Ovulate your temps go up.. up UP

Re: Conception ?
Also, temping helps you to know how long your Luternal (sp?) Phase is. That is the time between Ovulation and your AF. If it is too short it is very hard to get pg. You would never know that info without charting.
