Hello Lovelies!

I had sex on my ovulation day - thinking I was clever we used a Durex extra safe. Except the damn thing slipped off!! He had finished inside me before we realised - cue me freaking out moaning at him haha.

I have two children already (5 in total but 3 are angel babies) so I don't have trouble with conception.

I took a morning after pill within 2 hours of the deed but there's 'that' voice in the back of my head - Gulp.

I have had a headache past few days, been sick twice but feel sick most of the time (I get Hypremisis in all my pregnancies so it always starts early), tired, no real breast changes and some noticeable cramps.

Im not due on until the 25/2 but so is it too early to test now?

DD is 2 next month, conceived as a one hit wonder, on my ovulation day.....morning after pill taken less than 12 hours later.

Best accident that ever happened but I'm afraid to say that the MAP is not very effective after ovulation.

Hope things work out okay for you op. It says they don't work but sometimes they do interfere with ovulation so hopefully you will be safe

I got both my BFPs 6 days early with the cheapy strip/dip tests from home bargains. If you dont want to wait for the first response you could take a trip to your nearest shop. I would 100% take this as an essential purchase btw.

Good luck OP! Hope you get the outcome you want.

Thank you for your replies! :)

I would have ovulated the night before (Deed took place in the early morning). I took an ovulation test and it was positive at the time hence the rush for a MAP...

I didn't realise they won't work if you have already ovulated. Ahhh!

Thank-You, Ive just ordered first response from Amazon... Are theses the best ones? Youngest is 8 so its been a while!

I would test tomorrow morning with FMU. Pee now. Dont pee or drink again between now and the morning.

I hope it's just your head on overdrive.

Really sorry to say but this is how I got pregnant. I didn't realise I was ovulating and the condom split. I took the MAP but it didn't work. I ended up having an abortion as I really really didn't want a baby. This was about 8 years ago. Really hope you get a different outcome xx

Had you already ovulated as morning after pill doesn't work if egg has been released?

sabrinathemiddleagewitch · 20/02/2021 22:00

You could test now with first response 6 days early tests

marauder1994 · 20/02/2021 21:58

I would test, just to get it out my head x
