Is it possible to conceive 5 days after period

Hi,

Don't know if it's wishful thinking but anyway...

Is it possible to have conceived 4 or 5 days after my period has gone?

We are trying so maybe I'm just symptom spotting and hoping. But a week on I've got lumpy breast and I've spotted a tiny bit yesterday and today. I'm also really dizzy at times and feeling crampy in my abdomen.

It's 2 weeks until my next period and I'm usually pretty regular so not sure if this is too soon?

What do you ladies think?

Hello, how long are your cycles and do you usually ovulate that early!?

Amie8184 · 11/09/2018 18:39

@Bloodylegoeverywhere they're usually about 28 days. I've tried using those cheap ovulation strips from around 10 days when I thought I should be checking but I've always got a very faint positive.. so maybe I do ovulate earlier than that. I think 5 days may be a bit too early though. Just wondering if other ppl have had any luck that early on 🤔

Yes of course it's possible! You can ovulate at any time and people do which is why some become pregnant unexpectedly.

If you are trying to conceive or trying to avoid conception, why not buy an ovulation prediction kit from Boots? Life is simpler nowadays, thankfully.

@Rebecca36 thanks. Yeah I tried using the ovulation strips but they advised testing from around 10 days for a 28 day cycle and I only ever got a faint positive on those. I wasn't sure if it was the test not working properly or now I'm thinking maybe that was the end of fertile period.. will wait and see what happens in the next 2 weeks when I can take pregnancy test

5 days after your period has gone? How long is your period? I would say it is very possible. Also did you dtd 5 days after cos sperm can live for 48 hours or more so you could have conceived 2 days after you dtd.
