Step 1
Visit your gynecologist to make sure that your body and reproductive organs are healthy, and that you are well enough to conceive.
-
Step 2
Watch the calendar. Specifically, mark the day that your period begins each month. Ovulation usually occurs about 14 days after your last period starts. Ovulation is that time of the month when you can actually get pregnant. It is essential to try to get pregnant during ovulation.
-
Step 3
Take your temperature. When resting, take your temperature with an oral thermometer. Ovulation usually happens when your body temperature is about 1 degree higher than normal for three days. Conception is most likely 2 to 3 days before your temperature rises. Also, think about buying an ovulation prediction kit, as these are often more accurate than just taking your temperature.

Step 4
Enjoy yourself. Give nature the time it needs to make this miracle happen.
