Failed morning after pill?

In a bit of a flap. Took the morning after pill on New Year's Eve (11 hrs after unprotected sex, dumb, dumb, dumb) and followed instructions exactly. I can't remember date of LMP but it was definitely finished before Xmas and I would say I was ovulating around the time we had sex. Still no AF and I just did a test (Acon) and got a very very very faint pink line. Does this mean I'm preg? Sorry to sound so stupid, but I wondered if the pill could have affected hormones and given me a false positive? It's not the end of the world if I am, but it's totally unplanned as the baby is still, well, a baby.

Agree that there seems to be alot of you who are a member of the 5% failure club although I suppose if it had worked you wouldn't be on Mumsnet would you

Wish mine would fail.

Changed my name for this but my morning after pill failed too. I took it 12 HOURS after 'the event'. It didn't even make me sick but I got pg. Unfortunately, there was no possibility of keeping the baby and I had to terminate and feel as though I pay for it every day.
I'm so glad that this is positive for you!!!!
Many congratulations!!

Babygirls, this thread is five years old, perhaps start a new one as it could be confusing when people first click.

Click on conception and then add new thread to topic. Good luck.

Need some insight please.. Last Period May 29, cycle length 28days, Lutheal Phase 14, has unprotected sex on June 10&11th, took postinor few hours after. Don't feel any side effects but uncomfortable lower tummy and back. I already have 3 kids. What is the possibilities for MAP to failed in my case? Because I knew I was already ovulating at the time and thought MAP might still able to work. HELP!

May be better starting your own thread

Hi, I Hope I'm not to late in replying, as Not sure how long they keep threads open for...but can I ask, Any of those who fell pregnant after taking the MAP...did you have the bleed that they say you can have on or after the 6th day? As I'm bleeding on the 6th day...And it's hard to say if it's a period as my 3rd baby is only 8 weeks old...So not sure when my first period was due. But just checking if because I'm bleeding on the 6th day, it means I'm safe xx :-D
