Ahem, Ladies....

Its good to know just when you are ovulating. Let me tell ya how to know when that is....

Good for you if you track your period. Not everyone does, so its hard to predict ovulation. However, you do realize that your periods starts, and that is the first clue.

About 7-10 days after your period starts ("starts" as in, the first brown tinge), you can watch for a few subtle signs you are ovulating.

1. Some women feel a little light cramping or twinging on one side, as the egg is relased from the ovary on that side.
2. More obvious, is the change in your cervical mucous. When you notice that the mucous gliding out is clear, slippery, and can do tricks, you are ovulating. The trick you can try, is to stretch the mucous between your thumb and finger, and if it stretches a ways (inches), you will know it is time. I mean, this stuff is springy. It is like that, because it is preparing to carry any sperm to the queen egg.

When you make this discovery, head to the bedroom in the next 12hrs or so!
OR...avoid the bedroom for the next 12hrs at least! (Depending on your family planning :)

But either way, its good to know when that time comes.
