    While trying to get pregnant, people think about sex, sex and a lot of sex. But, how many of you know, it takes the right time to conceive? When you are trying to get pregnant, the timing of you and your partner having sex is important. All you need to understand is that getting pregnant is all about timing. Believe it or not, making babies is a complex mechanism and requires the right conditions for egg and sperm to meet. Pregnancy can only occur during the ‘fertile window’ which is determined by your menstrual cycle. The chances of your conceiving increase by having sex two days before ovulation or on the day of ovulation. Ovulation is the process when the egg is released from the ovary and after that, it survives for 12-24 hours.

    2. Basal body temperature: The average body temperature in the morning before ovulation is about 97-97.5 degree Fahrenheit, and after the ovulation, it increases to about 97.6-98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. You can use a basal thermometer to keep a check on temperature in your mouth.
