How likely that I’m pregnant

God I’m sorry, I used to read threads like this and think JUST WAIT TWO WEEKS AND DO A TEST but I’m going out of my mind thinking about it.

I had unprotected sex with my husband and basically the next day I felt ovulation pains. This is usual for me, although I did experience them earlier than I should have (I use an app to track).

I’m so torn about how I feel. I have an 18month old who I adore but I wasn’t planning on getting pregnant again for at least another year, if ever again at all. Having a baby has been hard on my relationship and on my sense of identity.

Then again, as soon I knew it could be possible I felt an unexpected hope that it could happen. Then again, the thought of a toddler and a baby sometimes seems impossible for me to cope with.

Humour me. How likely I’m pregnant? Anyone else been in a similar situation. The one time we haven’t been careful. It’s giving me such a headache.

You might be, you might not be, you know no one can answer that for you really though 😁

I think I read somewhere that there is a 20% chance of getting pregnant every month. Probably higher if you had sex close to ovulation.

If it were me, the chance would be pretty high. I seem to fall pregnant very easily though. I've had a few miscarriages (prob my age) but at least three of my pregnancies were a result of pre ovulation sex.

You clearly want to be pregnant. Why else would you not use contraception. You may be, you may not. Wait until after you period is due and then you can take a test.

NOTthepinkranger · 06/11/2018 06:58

If you’ve had sex you have a chance of being pregnant.

MsHopey · 06/11/2018 06:59

If you wasn't using any protection and was just trying to avoid your ovulation then there is a chance you are pregnant. Though on average there is only 25% possibility of getting pregnant every month, so it could still go either way.
It's not the worst thing to happen and you are also hopeful so fingers crossed you can try and be happy with whatever the outcome.

Not sure on chances but I had unprotected sex ONCE and I'm 37 weeks pregnant.

I really didn't think I would fall pregnant but I did, I didn't want anymore children but felt like it was my fault for not being careful.

Anyway I'm looking forward to my baby arriving now. I have 3 other children 6, 4 and 2. X

Depends on who you are/your body and your partners sperm. I've been trying for a baby for 11 months with lots of sex and still not pregnant. How long did it take you to conceive your dc? I believe it's 25% chance each month, but some people get pregnant at the drop of a hat, others never.

Heelllpp My last period was September 20th so it has now been 48 days and still NO PERIOD I had unprotected sex Sept 30th and the morning of Oct 1st he used the pull out method. My next period was due Oct 15th and the one for November is supposed to come by Friday (Nov 8th).
I just got my period back on track in August so they should be regular by now, I've counted and they're 25day cycles. Can someone give me insight on what to do. I brought a hpt today but haven't taken it.

Kokopuff · 06/11/2018 20:41

Not August but June is when they gave me birth control pills i had to take for 14 days to get my period back on track because I had one that was 2weeks long.

Thanks everyone. I am aware it’s a silly question, I think I just needed to talk it out somewhere. Friends and family would understandably think I’m crackers.

Koko if I were you I’d do a pregnancy test now. I did mine very early and the positive showed up. Irregular cycles are a pain in the arse! Mine was just getting back on track as well.

Good question, seven. I think we conceived fairly easily. It was basically the same scenario, although we were trying. We had sex and then literally hours later I felt myself ovulate.
