Hello Welcome to Health Care Magic.
Don't worry much. Stay calm.
all you said is just superstitions. It is just your choice when you want to have sex with your partner. getting pregnant is an another issue. it depends upon when you ovulate and when sperms fertilize the ovum.
There are ovulation testing kits available in market which are urine testing kits once it is positive next 48 hours are very important for fertilization of female egg. keeping relation during that time have highest chances of getting pregnant.
Hope this information helps you.
Best wishes.
