To think you probably can't get pregnant this way

Hi all, very long time lurker, first time poster because something is really playing on my mind.

Normally very very careful with contraception, but I'm worried because of what happened a week ago.

Me and DP were messing around and the long and short of it is he "pleasured me digitally" (snort) with "spermy fingers". God sorry for the TMI.

I checked the app i use to track my period and that was apparently in my fertile window.

Can you put my mind at rest - its unlikely for that to cause pregnancy, right? But how unlikely? Like super unlikely or just unlikely?

@AnyFucker
You've got loads of new things to try out with Mr Fucker (NoFucker?), from sperm finger frolics to reach arounds.

Yes! Bloody embarrassing thing to admit but this is how I got pregnant at 19 Blush ... but I am very fertile in general, which probably helped

BigBaboonBum · 10/01/2018 10:03

And it’s a bit worrying so many are saying it won’t happen... honestly, it does! And let me tell you, it was a massive frigging shock!! lol

CoteDAzur · 10/01/2018 10:03

I find it worrying that some people here believe that they can get pregnant with anal sex.

tillytown · 10/01/2018 10:09

Nobody here believes you can get pregnant from anal, they believe you can get pregnant from sperm leaking into the vagina after anal sex, which is possible.

CoteDAzur · 10/01/2018 11:44

Not unless you deliberately put the stuff that leaks into your vagina, it's not.

If stuff out of your anus leaked into your vagina, you would have worse problems than pregnancy.

@CoteDAzur
Your last line has my eyes brimming with laughter tears....

My friend got pregnant that way!

TheNoodlesIncident · 10/01/2018 13:22

Didn't this happen to Lorna Sage? I remember reading something of that ilk in her autobiography. Although she did at least spare us the globby details unlike some posters' parents WTF

FluffyWhiteTowels · 10/01/2018 13:33

I wonder if this is how Mary got pregnant

GlitterUnicornsAndAllThatJazz · 10/01/2018 13:37

@FluffyWhiteTowels
Would Mary's DP's sperm been able to swim through her hymen? Although I guess she could have broken hers with some vigorous camel riding!

So in theory you could get pregnant and still be a virgin????

SpottyGecko · 10/01/2018 13:54

Firstly, best of luck OP.

Secondly, I hold you all responsible if I wake my baby by trying to hold in snorts of laughter! (Currently sat in the car as she snoozes and I read about globby sperm fingers and anal leakage) GrinGrin

Morphene · 10/01/2018 14:07

I've gotten pregnant every time I've let sperm anywhere near me which is only twice, one baby and one MC.

It retrospectively terrified me about all the times I'd been a bit 'have I taken it' about the pill...

I;d sort of come to the conclusion I'd nearly messed up so many times it must be quite hard to get pregnant, but no, for some combinations of people it really really isn't.

TheViceOfReason · 10/01/2018 14:17

Sorry OP, but this thread is hilarious. I'm trying to stifle my childish giggles at my desk.

Spermy finger bang indeed.

GingerbreadMa · 10/01/2018 15:25

I sleep on my tummy so I can imagine logistics whereby anal leakage coulda got me pregnant (or infected with a UTI) if I was too tired afterwards for a full clean-up operation

*This has never happened to me, I dont like anal, mainly due to the clean-up part..

MNHQ can we rename this the over-share thread?

shhhfastasleep · 10/01/2018 15:28

I know someone who had IVF and who is a virgin.

GingerbreadMa · 10/01/2018 15:33

The vagina is designed to be a life support machine for sperm as well as a sperm cheer leader. It doesnt have to be dropped right at the cervix door to make it once its in the V it can find a way.

IWouldBeSuperb · 10/01/2018 16:17

Thanks Gingerbread

Now I have the Jurrasic Park 'life finds a way' soundtrack stuck in my head!

Although it's an improvement on the images this thread has put in there...

Sallystyle · 10/01/2018 16:27

How did he get spermy fingers? Was he enjoying his own company first? Even so, how did it get on his fingers?? I must be very naive...

Well, hand on base of penis.. sperm dribbles down.

WombOfOnesOwn · 10/01/2018 16:58

Of course sperm could transit a hymen. Except in pathological cases (imperforate hymens), the hymen has a small hole to let out menses. Women whose hymens are not open enough to accommodate sperm transmitted in this or other ways would have died of sepsis. It can become a life-threatening emergency to have an imperforate hymen once menses begin, and is excruciatingly painful -- women with the condition have to have their hymens broken in a medical setting, and the resulting rush of pent-up, rotting fluids is one of the most disgusting scents in the entire medical world (according to a woman doctor friend of mine).

WombOfOnesOwn · 10/01/2018 16:59

(by "other ways," I mean just about anything with a diameter small tampon size or smaller -- but I can think of several ways for sperm to get there that don't require a penis.)

JsOtherHalf · 10/01/2018 17:03

A friend's cousin got pregnant at 17, having never had full PIV. ie a virgin.
She wasn't just telling her parents this, she was warning my friend not to make the same mistake.

MrsDc7 · 10/01/2018 17:32

proper globs Grin

Sparklingbrook · 10/01/2018 17:34

I have already had my breakfast ruined by this thread. It's nearly dinnertime and it's still all 'globs' and 'dribbles' still. Sad
