Ovulation Tracking with Lindsay Meisel

In today's episode, Sarah sits down with Lindsay Meisel to discuss all things ovulation, cycle tracking, and getting pregnant. This episode is the long-form interview with Lindsay. She is also featured in Episode 1 of Season 2: Getting Pregnant.  Let's go over a few key points about ovulation tracking:⁣⁣⁣ 1) It's only possible to get pregnant during your fertile window and that happens about midway through your cycle (day 14 for a 28 day-cycle). This is your most fertile time and it lasts about 48 hours. Everything on either side of the window and your chances of getting pregnant decrease significantly.⁣⁣⁣⁣ 2) There are signs that you are ovulating, like the cervical mucus test and your body temperature. If you like lots of data points and keeping track of things diligently, you can do this manually. If you would rather be more hands off but still know when you're ovulating, the Ava Women Bracelet could be good for you (not sponsored). ⁣⁣⁣⁣ 3) Tracking your cycle and trying to get pregnant can be a source of stress for some women. If you are finding yourself in this boat, think about how you may be able to remove some of the stressors and still achieve your end-goal. ⁣⁣ 4) Listen to the full episode for an in-depth conversation about ovulation tracking and getting pregnant.  Topics from the episode include: #ovulation #period #pregnant #pregnancy #ttc #tryingtoconceive #conceive #conception #makeababy #fertility #pregnancypodcast #pregnancyapp⁣⁣
