Got pregnant out of fertile window !!!

Hi everyone.
I have just found out I’m pregnant today. After a year of looking at these threads. Constantly searching for answers and analysing everything I do to find out why I’m not pregnant.
I’ve had two miscarriages this year which I had treatment for. Which was very distressing and then constant trying has made me feel so obsessed. I was spending a fortune on pregnancy tests in my two week wait like an addiction until I was that I happy I couldn’t take no more and on advice from my nurse she said just say sod it!! Just for a month or two and enjoy yourself again. Have a drink and not have a life that just revolves around getting pregnant and so that’s what I did

I got so drunk it hurt !!!
I deleted my tracking apps
Only had sex once completely out of my fertile window. Like three days after my period !

Tonight I thought to myself I want another good old drink but I’m due on my period and it has arrived so I did a test to be certain and I couldn’t catch my breath when I saw an instant positive !!!!
I wanted to share my story because I hope it can bring other women comfort ❤️

Congratulations!
Can I put a little wager on it being a girl?

Congrats!! Very happy for you.

Maybe you are an early ovulater? I've read alcohol can change up your cycles!

Congratulations!! Some things are just meant to be!!

Beck1991 · 17/12/2021 19:48

Thanks everyone.
It’s so soul destroying trying to get pregnant.
I wanted to share my experience so far with people to hopefully give hope !!!

I love your wager on it being a girl

Congratulations!!! A similar thing happened to me. There's nothing worse than someone saying "just relax!" (like...JUST. FUCK. OFF. ) but it is known to work sometimes for some people.

Brilliant news!

Wow if I had unprotected sex 3 days after my period - so about Day 8 - I would be getting signs of impending ovulation already and three days or so later, bam fertilization. So definitely within my fertile window. Congratulations!

I have 3 apps all showing a different fertilisation window... confused!

Lovely ❤️

Congratulations op! We decided to start trying in June but my husband's work was hectic so we just had sex twice the whole month and neither time was in the 'fertile window'. Turned out I got pregnant that month somehow! Incredibly lucky. Baby due in March.

HelloBunny · 17/12/2021 21:32

Yup. The month I finally figured out that we needed to be seriously at it a week before ovulation / just after period, was when I got pregnant.
Plus, I was just back from holiday & meaning to get right back on the healthy eating / exercise etc, but I was mostly mainlining Five Guys...

Alfixn · 17/12/2021 21:35

I agree about it being a girl! Apparently the 'girl' sperm live longer. Congrats op!!

Beck1991 · 17/12/2021 21:41

Thanks everyone for your replies. It’s great to hear other peoples stories.
Wow I never had heard that about girl sperm 😂

I got pregnant very early in my cycle and it was a girl. She’s currently scrolling on her phone… Smile
