hi there.....this can be tough to pick sometimes as a lot of people realise when they start ttc.
You may see EWCM (egg white cervical mucous) just before ovulation which is a good indicator to ...get busy 
But I found the best way to detect ovulation was to use OPK or (ovulation predictor kits). Not sure why they are called kits, they are just a test like a pregnancy test. You can get them cheaply on trademe...just search for ovulation tests 
I ended up charting (taking daily temp) to be sure I was ovulating and when.....and lucky I did because when I thought I was ovulating I was wrong and we had been doing the business at all the wrong times. Hope that helps a little and best of luck

thanks for that!
It is bizarre, have no idea what to watch out for and am a bit dubious about googling! |

| Bubbalump, check out www.fertilityfriend.com, it has great information about figuring out your ovulation signs. I get EWCM just before ovulation, but that's usually the only sign I really get. I've tried ovulation tests, but I've never managed to get a positive one! |
