Try to cut the squash into evenly sized pieces. We know cutting up winter squash, especially butternut squash, can be tricky. (Donât worry; in our recipe below, we share how we do it). We find that separating the thinner end from the round, wider end makes things much easier.
A ripe egg can live in the outer edge of a fallopian tube for 12-24 hours. If there are sperm in the womans cervix or if the couple has intercourse while an egg is alive in a fallopian tube, the sperm can travel up through the uterus and the fallopian tube and try to fertilize the egg.
Your egg only survives for between 12 hours and 24 hours if it is not fertilised. There's only a small window each month during which you can conceive, typically no longer than about six days. This time leading up to ovulation is when you are most fertile (your fertile window).our egg only survives for between 12 hours and 24 hours if it is not fertilised.
