A could I be pregnant thread...

I am ttc no 2 and had ruled myself out of the running this month as we only managed to have sex once, about a week before I ovulated, for various reasons.
In pretty sure when I ovulated as I get pain and had ewcm even though I didn't do a test.

Anyway, as we hadn't managed to have sex any more than that, I assumed this month was a loss and wrote it off.

However, my period was due yesterday and hasn't come... I have been getting a bit of cramping including a couple of sharp pains, which I remember getting with dc1.

Has anyone conceived having just had sex so long before ovulation? Or am I deluding myself?

Unless you ovulated earlier than you think, I would say it's very unlikely you are pregnant. I think even 5 days is pushing it a bit for sperm to survive and average is 3ish.

Hopefully you ovulated earlier and caught that egg though. Good luck Flowers

I conceived on a month 'off' only had sex once and thought it was a bit too early to count... 24wks along now!

It is possible but without a test impossible to tell really. Good luck!

Thank you for replying.
I have done a test. Bfn Sad but.... I had been out for lunch and drunk 2 pints of black currant and soda so may try again tomorrow with fmu if no sign of period. Don't know why I'm suddenly so hopeful, I had already decided I wouldn't be this month!
Maybe because I am never late, I have short cycles, average of 25 days, so I'm on day 26 which is almost unheard of for me.

We were avoiding ttc and dtd 4 days before I had a + ovulation test. We caught with ds! Shock
