Best time to get pregnant

You probably know that an egg only lives for 12-24 hours, so it's best to start trying a few days before your ovulation day since sperm can last for 4-5 days. It would also be a good idea to have sex on the estimated day of ovulation and the one or two days that follow. This is because you never really know the exact day of ovulation and you want to be on the safe side! Also about 10-15 days after your period.
