Panicking... How likely is it I'm pregnant, really?

Came off the pill 8 weeks ago. Been on it years and wanted to get back to normal cycles, DP and I planning on TTC in summer/autumn time.

We've been using condoms and I'm using natural cycles app to track temperatures and really to work out my cycle, I've been on the pill that long I don't know my cycle lengths or anything. I've been on the pill since I was a teenager and quite honestly, I don't even know much about ovulation and how it works. I'm trying to learn!

So:
Withdrawal bleed - 6th til 10th Jan
1st period - 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th February
Positive LH test 19th Feb morning, quite sharp ovulation pain 19th PM and morning of 20th

Now, on 17th Feb late evening we DTD and, after both having a really stressful day in work and a few drinks, got wrapped up in the passion and didn't use any protection. No lecture needed, we are idiots Blush

So basically, 48 hours before I think my egg was released, we DTD using no protection, just the once.

How likely is it I could actually be pregnant?

DP would be absolutely overjoyed so it's not like it would be the end of the world, I just wanted another 6 months or so first.

I could have written this post a year ago, down to the natural cycles and time frame of DTD. Got a lovely little boy now 😂

If you had unprotected sex during your fertile period then there's a fair chance

@Dryshampooandcoffee oh jeez Grin aww happy for you that you've got a lovely little boy!

It really wouldn't be the end of the world, I'd love a child. We'd just planned to wait as I already have a DD from previous relationship who will be starting school in Sept, so wanted to get her settled really! Guess I'll have to wait and see, eek.
