Even before person is born its blood type is established because it represents combination of parent’s genes. Blood type or blood group is determinate by antigens A, B or O presence in blood and Rh +/- factor so there is following types: 0 +/-, A +/-, B +/- and AB +/- .
Frequency of certain blood type varies depends on racial and ethnic affiliation but it seems that the rarest blood type is AB -. This blood type has about 1-3% of population.
Interesting is that there are several new, exotic types developed. The rarest of the rare types is so called Bombay blood (hh). It is discovered in Bombay 1950 and only 1 of 250 000 people has it.

The best time to get pregnant is the period of ovulation. During ovulation process women’s egg gets mature and ready for fertilization.
Ovulation usually occurs on 14th day of women’s menstrual cycle in the cases when the cycle lasts 28 days. But not every woman’s cycle lasts 28 days so ovulation varies due to the length of the cycle ( it can occur 10th to 19th day of the cycle). If the cycle lasts, for example, 31 days woman should subtract 14 days and that (in this case 16th day of the cycle) would be approximately the time of her ovulation.
The egg will be fertilized within 24 hours and recommendation is that couple should have intercourse 4 and 2 days before ovulation and one day after.

To define mental health is a little difficult since it is subjective and cannot be measured accurately. Perhaps the presence of any mental illness is an easy method of knowing that one is not mentally healthy. However, even in the absence of any illness, the level of mental health can be higher in one person than in another. One can define mental health based on some characteristics present in a person.
The ability to make the most out of life or simply to enjoy all that one has in life leads to a good mental health. One must capable of facing challenges and difficulties in one’s life without succumbing to them. Spending time all by oneself or in the company of others, one must be able to do it at ease and have a good mix of both. Any extreme behavior shown in either leads to disorders. An open mind that can accept and respect the viewpoints of others even if they are different from one’s own is essential to being mentally healthy. If not, it might lead to a lot of stress in one’s life and face the risk of being isolated by everyone. An ability to like oneself and improve on one’s shortcomings is also one facet of being mentally healthy. The most important thing is to be aware of any disorders and seek help to find a remedy.
