You already knew that, though, based on
your little scare you had a few months
ago. Are you trying to conceive?

Are you saying that you were pregnant even
though you got your period, or that you
got pregnant during the month AFTER you
got your period, before the next period
(the one you missed)?

Yeah that kind of sounds odd to me. I was
wondering if maybe you were pregnant for
longer than you thought and maybe it was
implantation bleeding....because it's
impossible to have sex and get pregnant 2
days before your period. The hormone
levels aren't right to conceive at all at
that time.
I'm not saying your a liar or anything,
I'm just confused.

during the month after i got it. but what
im saying is that even though she got it,
she said she had sex and 2 days later she
got her period it doesnt necessicarly mean
shes not pregnant she could be still.

You're right about the hormone levels, but
it is even more basic than that. There is
no egg to be fertilized any longer at that
point in a cycle.
An egg lives 12-24 hours after leaving the
ovary
If an egg is not fertilized, it
disintegrates and is absorbed into the
uterine lining

im saying i had a period, which was
lighter than my usual ones, and it lasted
6 days instead of 7 then 14 days later i
ovulated and the next month i never got a
period. i tested and was found to be
pregnant. and now ive got a family doctor
and he said im between 11-14weeks
pregnant, but she could not be pregnant if
its a period like her normal ones but mine
was lighter and then i was pregnant.

I still don't get it. What is the
significance of a 6 day period vs. a 7 day
period, and you being 11 to 14 weeks
pregnant?

your period before you got pregnant is
insignificant

krystine are you saying that you didnt
have sex after your period? because if you
did then it was THAT time that you got
pregnant from not the time before your
period
op im 98% sure your not pregnant, you
should have ovulated WAY before you had
sex

You are not pregnant. The entire uterine
lining shed when you have your period.
The egg was in that lining. How could you
be pregnant if the entire lining and egg
got flushed out of your body in your
period?

Actually, you ovulate 14 days prior to
your NEXT period. So the 14 days after
your period will only apply if you have
the 'perfect' 28 day cycle that a very lot
of women (especially teens) do not have.
Unless you know your real ovulation (from
temping and charting - not from online
calculators because those are just a
'generalization' that I could make looking
at the calendar) - you don't know when you
do or would have ovulated.
That said, in a perfect environment, sperm
can live for up to 5 days. If you had sex
after your period, even briefly, that
would be the most likely time of
conception. Sperm are not super heroes. If
you are actively having a period (and not
just spotting!), it is really unlikely you
would get pregnant during your menses.

The period that you got 2 days after you
had sex, was that period on time, like
when you expected to get it?
