So according to baby centre ovulation calendar the 26th-31st is my fertile period - this assumes a 30 day cycle if you count the first day you come on as day one if that makes sense.
So exactly when should we be bonking if all five days aren't possible, I'm worried about missing the target.
All very new to this last time I just drank too much wine and a baby appeared.

You can't know for certain without charting or using ovulation testers as everyone's cycle is different so I think those calculators are a bit useless unless you have a really regular cycle and have charted so know how long your luteal phase is. But watch out for cervical mucus which is clear and stretchy and egg-whitey. Whenever you see it, get nasty. As much as poss.

Lol
This is the thing according to another site I will ovulate 26-28th so it's no good me bonking on the 26th then is it as it'll have been and gone.

Yeah calendars are useless. Are you regular, so is your cycle usually 30 days give or take a few days? To be sure, then take the date the calendar gives you and start having sex a week or so before that, every other day and stop a week or so after the date. It could be unreliable though if you ovulate early or late.

But you are right saying that having sex on the day of ovulation might be too late and it's better doing it the day or two days before.

Are these pee on a stick digital clear blue things any good ? He works away so I've only got a nine day window of slagging no matter what.

I used Clearblue OPK for the first time this month and it seems to have worked. Although I also talked BF into a lunchtime shag in my office disabled toilet Blush because I noticed some ewcm earlier in the day so agree with Lady on that one.

the clear blue ones are great, but expensive. You can also get cheap ovulation tests on ebay/amazon, which you use a couple of times a day in your most fertile time. When you get a positive, you know those are the most fertile days, because you should ovulate about 24-36 hours later.

I don't know if I've got time to get them off amazon, I've got some stick ones but tbh call me thick but I haven't a clue which was darker line than the other - neither were dark, I want a smiley face for the first month at least, after that I'll revert back to just slagging and see what happens Grin

Every other day after your period has ended for as long as you can manage should do the trick.

Honestly, save yourself a ot of money and anxious peering at wee covered sticks and step away from the ovulation tests.
