My bfreind luke and i are trying to concieve a child. I quit smoking 34 days ago and cut back on drinking and started working out with some workout videos that i bought every month that goes by i keep thinking that i'm pregnant and i end up not being preg. I have trouble trying to figure out when i ovulate and when to have sex and all that stuff and hoping that someone will be able to help me out.

You can buy OPKs(ovulation test) that will help you eith the ovulation. You can also BBT (bassel body temping). You buy a special thermometer and chart your temps. as far as the BDing(baby dancing/sex goes. THere are difference of oppinions on that. Some say every other day from CD 10 until you get you + OPK then every day for 3 days, skip one day then BD once more. Some say every other day and the day of O. Alot of it alsodepends on the guys sperms. But you probably do no want to BD more then once a day while in the O period. The guy's sperm neede a chance to reload.

Oh yeah, If you cycles are 28 days you should O on day 15. Not every one does. How Long are your cycles?
