High fertility 1 day after period? Can you get pregnant from sex during period?

I DTD on cycle day 4&5 for 'fun'. My period ended on Cycle day 5. Cycle day 8 I have a static smiley on my Clear Blue ovulation kit which means high fertility.. how is this possible?

According to my ovulation app, I'm not due to ovulate until 31/10..

Could I get pregnant? When should I test?

My sister conceived on the 5 day after her period started. So technically during her period. She didn’t think it was possible but ‘tried’ anyway.

Sorry I don’t know when you should test, but it’s definitely possible!

Yes you can get pregnant during your period. Sperm can live for up to 5-7 days inside the vagina so it’s possible to get pregnant if you have sex on your period

Right, I didn't think this was possible! If I hadn't checked my OPK then I wouldn't have realised I was fertile.

Can anyone recommend when I should buy a pregnancy test?

I am having exactly the same concerns as you. (Not to be meant in such a way ) I my period is due any day , but I have been getting lots of sympots last few days and I'm not sure if PMS or early pregnancy. My husband and I had sex on first day of my period (I only spot which is why we did ) and then again on last day which again was spotting. I've been getting symptoms similar to 1st pregnancy but I didn't really think this could be possible

@Km12345

When will you test?

I think I will wait a day or so after my period is due if I don't come on

I'm still in shock that I've had a high fertility on my OPK so soon after AF..
