Assuming that you have regular monthly cycles and counting from the very first day of that period, your most fertile days will be be day 14 and 16.
Usually a menstrual cycle is defined as 22 to 35 days and most women cycle on 28th day. Hence it is best to say one should consider investigating possible prenancy after 35 weeks.
Hope this answers your question.
Depends upon the length of your cycle. Usually, you ovulate about 14 days from the end of your cycle. So, if your cycles are 28 to 30 days apart, you will ovulate around day 14 to 16. that is the time you're likely to get pregnant during your cycle depending on the length of your cycles.
