How unlikely is unlikely...

Blush too embarrassed to ask anyone in real life so thought I'd ask mumsnet...

Ok, well period normally as regular as clockwork.... Was due on thursday, no sign as yet. If I am pregnant it would be a 'ahem' splash pregnancy... As we have done stuff in the vicinity but not full penetration(this month)... (not ttc... Was waiting until the autumn for that, but not using contraception on this occasion either)...

So while I know it's technically possible... It's very very unlikely...right??

Hiking thing is all organised am supposed to be in charge of teens- I'll be a bloody liability if I'm pregant I think. But then to be honest I have no idea what it feels like to be pregnant/how tired I'd be/what I can realistically expect to do...

Been in this job about 9 months, had confirmation of some extra responsibility just now and got a meeting later on about the other (more money!) promotion, I'm trying not to feel guilty, but I'd be pissed off if I was my employer. Not planning on doing anything silly like telling them today, because the chances are still pretty remote.

Still no AF but am going to the loo endlessly to check (good job I'm pretty much unsupervised in my role, the amount of MN and loo breaks I'm taking today).

(thanks for replying to my mad ramblings am still a bit panicked!)

oh dear. Could you still go to the Alps and keep the hikes a bit shorter if you are tired? Or are you planning a big expedition? To me, a hike lasts about 3 hours, but SIL would class this as a stroll. For her a hike involves climbing equipment, skis or a kayak!

Don't feel guilty at work, it isn't like you planned it, and they should give you the promotion regardless, if you are the best person for the job. How long have you been with your employer?

Anyway don't worry just yet, AF could arrive. Not that I am helping, asking you all these questions, sorry! (just want someone to be pg even if it isn't me)

Timing is dreadful... Meant to be hiking in the alps in August, also have a meeting today about whether or not ive got a promotion (interview last week), if I haven't, less disappointing I guess, but if I have... I feel guilty already.

Oh go on, POAS today! Hope you are OK... will the timing work out well for you if you are pg?

Oh Help! Still no AF, convinced myself it must be all in my head last night, not so confident now. Guess I will POAS at the end of the week if still nothing...

Based on the ^above evidence, it's clearly possible -and the timing of the 'fun times' I'd suggest you POAS 14 days from the fun times to get an accurate result.

Me three. With their accidental third. Her hubby has had the snip now!

pickles35 · 29/04/2012 22:43

I know someone who did as well!

Pipbin · 29/04/2012 15:28

Not wishing scare you but I have a friend who got pregnant that way.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 29/04/2012 15:26

It is possible, but the odds are incredibly low I'm sure I read once it's about a million to one?! Even when you dtd at the right time there's about a 25% chance and a week before your period is due is quite late. Definitely POAS so you know for sure but I wonder if it's more likely you ovulated late - have you been stressed or ill?- or maybe you've had an annovulatory cycle. Most women have one or two in a year where you just don't release an egg. When I've had them, my period is a couple of days late. Hth put your mind a ease a bit!

No sticks to pee on... Also said 'fun times' took place about a week befor period was due.... So think its probably to early to test....

Don't know what to think right now.... I'm sure its my over active imagination...

LimeLeafLizard · 29/04/2012 15:00

Well it is possible, particularly if it was the right time of the month. Do you have any sticks to pee on? if not please rush to buy one and then post back here so nosy people such as myself can find out

Oh bleugh wish I hadn't started this now...

It is possible that a little sperm got up there on a finger....

Well, depends what you mean by 'in the vicinity' Grin

Can you be more specific as to how close the spermies got to your entrance?
