time of month to get pregnant
Sperm can live for three to five days, but the egg is around for only 12 to 24 hours. To increase the likelihood of conception, it's important to have daily intercourse in the days leading to ovulation and on the day you ovulate. A good approach is to have sex one to two days before ovulation and again on the day you ovulate. That way, there's more likely to be a healthy supply of sperm waiting in the fallopian tube when an egg is released.
May is the most unfavorable time to get pregnant, the study finds. Babies conceived this month (and thus delivered in winter) were 13 percent more likely to be born premature, and their gestation time was almost a week below the average, Currie and Schwandt report.ay is the most unfavorable time to get pregnant, the study finds.
