Is is possible to ovulate early and still get pregnant?

[blueberry79]

I am having an IUI cycle this month and have ov'd early - day 9 (usually it's between 11-13)- and had the IUI on the same day. The hospital tell me that this is fine and early ovulation won't hamper my chances of becoming pregnant but I have read that early ov'ing is not really desirable and the chances of becoming pregnant are slimmer because the egg is not so well developed.

Does anyone know?

I ov early (around day 10 of 28ish day cycle), conceived DD straight away and am now pregnant with no 2 - again conceived very quickly. Don't worry and the best of luck to you!!!
