Unlikely. First day of period is cycle day 1. Ovulation is usually cycle day 12-18. Sperm lives for up to 5 days. So unlikely to still be living when you ovulate

Yes. DD2 is 12.

Well theoretically you can get pregnant on any day in your cycle. But there are times when it is extremely unlikely and times when it is extremely likely. It sounds like this is an unlikely time x

I had sex on the last day of my period and fell pregnant. I wasn’t one to take chances usually but calculated the risk as unlikely so didn’t take the MAP.

I fell pregnant but had a MMC.

I could as my period lasts 7 days and I ovulate on day 12. So it depends on the person. If your fertile window doesn't start for a week, probably not. But it's not impossible. "BD" implies you're trying to get pregnant, right?

Yes, it’s possible.

ImInStealthMode · 17/03/2022 20:50

If your cycles are regular and your fertile window doesn't even start for a week then it's highly unlikely as sperm survives a maximum of about 5 days, and you won't release an egg until a few days into your fertile period.

If you're asking because you're NOT trying to get pregnant though, get the morning after pill, just in case.

This isnt the last day of your cycle. The last day of your cycle is the day before your period starts. The first day of your period is the first day of your cycle. Period length makes no difference. How do you know when you're ovulating? Are you taking your BBT?

Yes, if you have unprotected sex there is a chance you will get pregnant, you cannot guarantee when you will ovulate. I had sex on cycle day 6, the day after my period ended and I'm now pregnant

Like KSAM, I also conceived on day 6 of my cycle (6 days after 1st day of period). DD1 is now 14!
