i had two counts of unprotected sex last
thursday3/20 and 3/2 friday. my period
ended that monday before 3/17. it was a
sure shot of sperm 2 times in a row. i am
feeling some mild cramping and tiredness ,
heavy boobs. my next period is not for
another 2 weeks. i was already ovulating
when i did it that sunday/monday 3/23 and
3/24 was my most fertile days. is there a
possibility that i am pregnant. i have
never been on birth control pills or any
form except for condoms which i did not
wear recently.

It is way too early for you to be feeling
those symptoms. Sore/heavy breasts are
also a sign of an oncoming period.
However, if you are having unprotected sex
there is definitely a chance of becoming
pregnant. Are you trying to become
pregnant? If not, I would recommend
getting some birth control. Planned
parenthood will often give it out for free
if you are worried about cost.
Wait for two weeks or until your period is
late, and then take a test.

thanx for the reply. i am new at this, so
i don't know when to expect symptoms. my
next period is not due till april 8th so
i'll wait to test a few days before. i
do want to be pregnant, that is why we
did it without protection twice in a row
to up the chances, i started ovulation the
day we had intercourse. i am ovulating
now but i do understand that i have to
wait till ovulation ends which is
somewhere around my period time before
implantation will happen. i hope i am
pregnant ! are the odds of being pregnant
really high for me ?

Symptoms usually don't start coming until
around the time a pregnancy test shows a
positive, which is around two weeks past
the act of unprotected sex.
Good luck on your quest to become
pregnant! In any given month, a woman has
a 25% chance of being pregnant. At 6
month its around 60%, at 9 months its 75%,
after a year its 85%, and at 18 months its
90%.
You should start taking prenatal vitamins
now, and if you drink or smoke you should
also try to cut back a lot/stop now in the
best interest of the baby.

I've never taken any birth control of any
kind. is the chances still the same for
me or could it be higher since i did it
around my ovulation time. my boyfriend
has one kid already and he said she was
created from pre cum..... so i'm putting
it together that his little soldiers are
very potent and he's 25 years old, he's
young. i am 28 ! i called the planned
parenthood and they said at any time
during ovulation a women can get pregnant.
when i had that act of sex i never
noticed any sperm coming back out when i
went to the bathroom 10 mins later. i
think his sperm shots were pretty powerful
in that he was right at the entry point to
my cervix, i felt minor discomfort like he
was forcing it open with the tip of his
head. i hope you don't mind me sharing
that experience. thank u for all your
advice so far you have really been very
helpful and knowledgable. i have no one
else to talk to about this right now. i
have a ton of questions though !

Your chances of pregnancy are the same as
the general population. It takes an
average couple 12 months to conceive.

not all the time. if shes younger it could
happen sooner than 12 months to concieve,
your most fertile when your younger, which
is why teens get pregnant so fast because
they are most fertile than women who wait
later on in their lives to have kids.

I'm still young, 28 YEARS OLD ! this
would be my first baby if i am pregnant.
i think my chances are really high because
i had intercourse 3 days after my period.
i've talked with several people who have
gotten pregnant right after their period,
they say thats how it happens. My
boyfriend is young also he's 25 YEARS OLD
they say young mans sperm is very potent
. i have a greater chance of being
pregnant because i had two counts of
sex...... UNPROTECTED 11pm on 3/20 and
1am on 3/21 he did ejaculate directly
inside me both times and that ejaculate
stuff DIDN'T come back out of me right
away either. ITS A SURE SHOT !

I am thinking about taking a pregnancy
test next friday since that would be 4
days before my period and two weeks after
my last act of intercourse. i hope i get
a positive reading. i was also told that
i might have to test 2 or 3 times because
the HCG levels might not be high enough
after 2 weeks it varies according to the
womens body. i think theres a big 4 pack
of tests by EPT ! its like $20 at walmart
i think !

Having intercourse 3 days after your
period actually isn't the best time to
conceive. The best time is 14 days before
your next period starts, which is when you
ovulate (if you have a 28 day cycle).
Even if you ovulate on time and have sex
on/around that day, are completely
healthy, and taking great care of
yourself, there is still only a 25% chance
each month. Unfortunately getting
pregnant isn't always as easy as it seems.
I wish you luck and hope that this is
your month and it works out for you, but I
wouldn't get your hopes too too high until
you have a missed period. Make sure you
take the test with your first morning
urine so the hcg is more concentrated.
Good luck

the best time to concieve is 14 days after
your period when your ovulating.
wait to test 4 days before your period and
see if your pregnant or not.

Just to clear things up for her so she
doesn't get confused, it's 14 days after
the first day of your last period, not 14
days after your period ends. Also, this
is for women with a 28 day cycle. If your
cycle is 30 days its 15 days after, 32
days is 16 days after, etc.

I pay very close attention to my body. my
period ended on 18th this month and I
started ovulating on the 20th which is
day 9 of my cycle. on the 20 and 21 this
month i had intercourse twice, both times
he ejaculated in me. from my understanding
sperm can live inside a women up to 5 days
. on sunday the 23rd I begin my most
fertile time. the sperm was already in me
when the egg was released. i'm a women
who starts ovulation on days 8 or 9 of my
cycle, i also ovulate all the way till the
day my period starts. I also understand
that it will take a lot of time before i
experience symptoms of pregnancy , since
my ovulation days are so long. i still
have two more weeks before i will know.
thanx all the support, i am open to all
suggestions, even sharing some of your
stories on when you guys thought u were
pregnant might help too.

Yes, sperm can live for up to five days.
However, women do not ovulate for 20 days
in a row. It is just not possible.
Reguardless, no matter how perfect the
timing and conditions, there is still only
about a 25% chance. It's just the way
statistics are. I'm sorry; I still hope
you get the results you are looking for.

I won't know if i'm pregnant till another
2 weeks passes. i am experiencing very
mild cramping . never felt cramping
before only a few days before my period.
next tuesday my period is suppose to come.
if no period then i'll test, wait a few
days if it doesn't show up then i'll test
again pending the results from the first
test. this week coming up will be when
all my premenstrual symptoms will show and
then i'll probily be confused till around
my period time.

I noticed early last night around 8pm when
i used the bathrm then i wiped and saw
brown discharge. this morning i am still
spotting a little bit no cramping or back
pain. it doesn't feel like my period.
should i be concerned ? i am one week
away from expected period. i've never had
a period this early ever in my life. if
i'm stressed then it usually comes late.
can someone tell me what this might be ?
