If you are trying to conceive ( TTC ), and if you are using fertility awareness methods
( FAM ) ,you might have a rough estimation of your day of ovulation ,
so that you might be able to calculate your days past ovulation ( dpo ).
Women who are trying to concieve ( ttc ) will be having a very nervous
two week wait ( TWW ) after the estimated day of ovulation hoping that
they will miss the next period or AF ( Aunt flo ).
The standard procedure is usually to wait 15 days past ovulation ( dpo )
with missed periods before testing for pregnancy. But impatient women
will usually start testing from ( 7 or 8 dpo) seven or eight days past
ovulation using home pregnancy tests ( HPT ). The home pregnancy tests
usually test the women's urine for presence of ( HCG ) human chorionic
gonadotropin hormone produced by the placenta during implantation..
But the home pregnancy tests vary among themselves on their sensitivity (
usually 15 mlU / ml to 25 mlU /ml ). HCG levels usually will double
every two to three days in early pregnancy.
It is better to urinate a little bit first before taking the urine
sample for testing from around the middle portion of the urine stream.
That means it is better not to use the first part of the urine stream
for testing. Some of the home pregnancy tests will involve holding a
test stick in the urine stream, while some other HPT 's might involve
collecting urine in a collection cup and dipping a strip in the
container. Some companies do not recommend using the first morning urine
( FMU ) for testing HPT ( home pregnancy tests ) and OPK ( ovulation
prediction ) .
The tests will usually have a control line and presence of another line
(sometimes faint) will be the indication of pregnancy. The confirmation
of pregnancy is usually called big fat positive ( BFP ) . The doctors
might further confirm the pregnancy using urine pregnancy test ( UPT )
or blood tests or ultrasound / sonogram ( sonogram refers to the picture
you get from the ultrasound test )test and / or a physical pelvic exam
.
The ultrasound test can also be used to estimate the age of the foetus / fetus and to check the number of fetuses .
The doctor will usually ask for your date of LMP ( last menstrual
period ) in order to estimate the date of delivery ( EDD ) usually by
adding 280 days to the date of the first day of the last menstrual
period ( LMP ). The usual gestation period is taken as 40 weeks from the
first day of LMP.
Premature deliveries are those that occur before 36 weeks of gestation.

Trying to get pregnant or trying to concieve ( TTC )
Trying to get pregnant or trying to concieve ( TTC )
Baby making or trying to concieve (TTC) is a very serious and big business. Some charts try to find the best window of fertility by using data of basal body temperature ( the initial body temperature taken using a sensitive and accurate thermometer when you wake up in the morning before getting out of bed hopefully after atleast 3 hours of undisturbed sleep ) and information abour the cervical mucus ( CM ) (which usually is more slippery near ovulation). .
( sample chart example of bbt from babycenter.com )
( some pictures of cervical mucus at various stages of menstrual cylce from babycenter.com )
Such methods are sometimes referred to as FAM (fertility awareness methods)
During ovulation, hormonal changes might trigger a rise in BBT ( of around 0.5 degree Farenheit ) , but you will need the data from two or three months to identify that pattern (if any) , because BBT might spike due to other reasons as well.This kind of charting is referred to as temping by some women. BBT will usually spike after ovulation while the cervical mucus slipperiness will show up just before ovulation
The human sperm can usually stay alive in the women's body for around 2 to 3 days (with supporting cervical fluids inside the uterus ), while the human egg has a life of around only 12 to 24 hours after the egg is released from the ovary ( ovulation ).
The most fertile period for a woman is usually only 24 hours before ovulation.
Some ladies use various fertility tracking apps and monitors like Ovia and fertility app, Fertility friend app, Glow (which also uses the male partners health data) and an app called eve , kindara (with the thermometer called wink with the facility of auto synchronisation with the app), Period tracker from itunes etc to track their menstrual cycle and try to find out their most fertile interval so as to maximise the chance of getting pregnant .
Most of these apps are marketed as the most accurate , state of the art and most advanced ovulation calculator, tracker of menstrual periods or period tracker. But the accuracy and effectiveness of such methods is likely to vary from one woman to the next and it is better for the user to learn about the accuracy and effectiveness of such fertility awareness methods / apps from other sources before they use them.
Women trying to get pregnant use such trackers and apps because they want to find the most efficient period in the monthly cycle in which to try to conceive ( TTC ).
Most of these require you to input basal body temperature (BBT) and/or data on cervical mucus daily etc and use the data to give you best period of trying to conceive. Some of the apps asks for cervical position and nature like softness, how open the cervix is , what kind of mood you have etc? . Putting / tracking all this stuff for the apps might increase stress / lessen the romantic relationship with your spouse.
Some of these give a basic app for free. But for a fee, you will have access to more detailed analysis.
Then there are some OPK's (ovulation prediction kits) which measure the presence of some luteinizing hormone ( LH ) in your urine and predict the time of your ovulation (time of release of egg/eggs from the ovary) and hence the window of fertility.
There are some digital OPK's as well. Even if the woman has a regular period, the ovulation might not happen according to a regular timetable within the menstrual cycle.
Some of the women will be on birth control ( BC ). They will have some notion of a timelime of trying to concieve ( TTC ). So they will have to stop the birth control measures, and allow the normal menstrual cycle to kick in.
Then after TTC there is a TWW ( two week wait ) which is a nervous interval of about two weeks from possible ovulation date before you can test for pregnancy using a pregnancy test kit and hope that this might give a BFP ( big fat positive )
