Q: When did I conceive?
asked by: ashrenee on November 9th, 2007

I made a mistake....

I had sex on May 24th with someone i met and i had sex on May 30th with someone i was in an on and off again relationship with... i got pregnant.... i am due feb 20th 08. I supposedly conceived on May 30th according to computers...

what are the odds that i got pregnant THAT day... or that i got pregnant from the guy from the 24th... i heard that it can take a couple of days for the sperm to meet with the egg..... or maybe it was the sperm from that day....

to add to the complications i have irregular periods and i had already missed 2 periods before i got pregnant... i have no idea of when i was ovulating... AAAGGGGHHHH

The gravity thing's a myth.

If you get an amniocentesis done later in the pregnancy, get a paternity test done at the same time. Then you'll know.

If you are in your fertile phase once the male ejaculates it takes seconds for millions of sperm to enter through your cervix and no amount of gravity will stop them.

my ultrasound is what said i was due the 20th... i know those are never right.. but up until your 25 weeks aren't they usually right about when you SHOULD deliver??

don't most babys grow the same until then and then they either grow slowly or get real big?? and then they either come early or late due to other factors.....

give or take a few days on each side given that your baby is healthy and all is considered normal with the pregnancy.

Suzy, it's not the baby that decides when it wants to be born its actually the body itself that decides that and tiggers the hormones thus labour begins.

I really don't care when i'm due... as long as shes healthy it doesn't matter... i just wish i knew the conception date.... with one she'll have a father with the other she won't... either way she will be loved...

I just PRAY that the ultrasound is right about the conception date....

Your conception date is may 30th then the 1st guy is unlikely the father. Do a dna test if you truly wanna know who the father is. I think your baby deserves to know who the father is.

Wow
I am in a similar situation. I am due Feb 29th and the doctors told me I conceived Jun 2nd. I was in a relationship with someone I cared about and had sex with them on the 30 of May. I got drunk at my high school graduation and slept with an old friend. We slept togther on the second. The thing is he never you know inside me but my bf did. Still I am pretty sure it is my ex bf's but always worried it could be my friends.
