Trying for a baby: ovulationQ."My husband and I have been trying for a baby for five months now without any luck. I am 27 and have been using Persona for the last year and a half and have been ovulating each month around day 10-12 of a 29/30-day cycle. Everything I read says I should be ovulating on day 16 of a 30-day cycle and I am beginning to worry that I have a problem. I haven't been checking my temperature but my cervical mucus becomes 'fertile' just before ovulation and I sometimes get a sharp pain in my side. Have I got a problem with ovulation?"A.It sounds very much as if you are ovulating quite normally on day 10 to 12. This is unusual in a 29/30-day cycle but should not prevent you conceiving. My advice would be to try for a year before you seek specialist advice.Steve Kilick, Babyworld Fertility Expert. |
