Just curious about when you are most fertile during your cycle? For example, my period should be starting any day now...maybe even still today. If hubby and I "had fun" today and didn't use anything wouldn't I be fairly safe against pregnancy? I know nothing about this stuff but was curious about what you experts could tell me. thanks.

Oh yeah, you should be fine this month. Your most fertile time is around ovulation wich accurs approximately 14 days before your period starts. You can get pregnant a few days before you ovulate (becuase the sperm can live inside of you) and when you ovulate. There are ways you can tell when you ovulate, which you may want to look into if you are trying to concieve or are trying natural family planning.

Thanks. That's what I've been trying to tell my hubby all day but he won't believe me. It's always nice to be right!! Thanks again. We aren't trying to concieve right now...or ever again if you ask him. Our kids are 3 and 1 and he says we're done. I say...we'll see!!
