Is it possible to get prenant if you have had sex on your period/ at end of? sorry to be so blunt but i thought it was "safe" but now i'm a bit worried as i feel a bit like i might be.. have 2 young ones already

yes, it's more unlikely, but it is possible

I don't think so, unless it wasn't really a period, just a bleed. How many days into your MC were you?

If you know your cycle very well and it is regular, it is unlikely. But it's always possible - very early ovulation, for example.

dh and I have occasionally sort-of practised the calendar method - some success, but one conception

Whatever the result, it's all good. We DO heart babies, it's just a bit close to ds2

heard somewhere that sperm can live for up to 3 days once inside so ... always possible...

sperm can survive up to 5 days inside the female body!!
Hoping you get the outcome you want, I bet Tuesday seems like next year. Are you having any pg symptoms?
