AM I PREGNANT? Took morning after pill more than 72hrs later on the day of ovulation

I had sexual intercourse on Thursday 20th July took the morning after pill more than 72hrs later (3 and half days late) and my estimated ovulation date was the Monday 24th of July. And I took the pill on that day around 6pm. Can I still get pregnant?

Yes I think it is possible. I took the morning after pill once, I think within 48 hours and I got PG. Thing is though it is possible it is not particularly likely either, and there is not much you can do other than wait until you can take a test.

Even if trying to become pregnant and having sex within a couple of days of ovulation, there is only about a 20% chance of becoming pregnant.

I've been ttc for 17 months and nothing's stuck!

So I wouldn't get too worried just yet. Test if you're late.

Ever since I took the morning after pill, I haven't had any cramps? What does this mean? I'm just anxious and waiting to take a test is a long time yet.

Try to take your mind off it. Easier said than done, I know.

Lots of people don't get any side effects from the MAP.

PS - don't you DARE post anything else in the miscarriage board about this. It was a disgusting thing to do! On someone's thread?!?! About the sufferings of their miscarriage?!
