snowwhite: How long before ovulation should we have intercourse?
Hubby and I are trying to conceive.
If I’m ovulating today(I got a +ve yesterday and today) and I have intercourse, is that enough time for the sperm to travel up the fallopian tubes to meet the egg? Or do we need to have intercourse days before ovulation happens? How long does it take for the sperm to meet the egg? Do you think I’m late already?

Actually the day of is probably the best time! Get to work as the window is a short one. GL!
It depends more on the quality of your cervical mucus. If you notice clear, stretchy stuff, it will keep the sperm alive for 2-5 days, so you could have sex before ovulation. If you don’t have good quality CM, you should have sex on the day of ovulation, since sperm would probably only live for 24 hours. I would say you have a good chance still if you try today, since the egg will live for up to 24 hours after you ovulate. GOODLUCK!!!Answer by ღ His soon ~ to ~ be wife ღ
I think BD right on the day of ovulation is a great time to achieve conception. I BD the day before I ovulated this month so I guess ill see if it happens. I think atleast 3 days before, 1 day before, the day of, and the day after ovulation is all good times to get pregnant so no you aren’t too late go for it! Good luck and let us know what happens 😉Answer by amers16_2002
I would say you better get on it. If you got a positive today and yesterday you are probably running out of time!! Time to have intercourse asap!Answer by Atul
hii…suppose ovulation happens on 14,so risk period is 7 to 14 to 21 and safe period is 21 to 28 (bledding starts on 28) and 28 to 7. but u should take precautions.
