Could conception have occured?

[Visitor7]

I'm really hoping there is a simple answer for this.
DH aren't TTC, but we had a little oopsie the other night I ovulated today and our oopsie was on Thursday night. So my question is, how long can sperm survive? Could conception have occured, or are there too many days in between? You'd think after 2 kids I would know this

[Olive]

sperm can last at least 5 days to yep you may have

[Visitor7]

wow, 5 days! I never knew that, thanks for that. Now to tell DH that

[maz]

yep...4 -5 days and the longer the sperm has been there the more chanches of a girl (me thinks)

[Olive]

pretty sure sam concieved ruby in similar circumstances

[Visitor7]

yep...4 -5 days and the longer the sperm has been there the more chanches of a girl (me thinks)

I have read that too. aaah well, if it happened, then more princesses to play with

[maz]

she sure did.

[Shanti]

Yep Jodi, could very well be expecting no#3 soon.... hehehe

We thought we were okay about 14mths ago too...we DTD on sunday, I O on thursday...we now have our little boy...

[shellbell3]

So in a couple weeks we could be hearing some news???

I guess we'll see in about 3 or 4 weeks time. I think I'll have to pick Heath up off the floor if I am though LOL
mbear - that gives me hope that you can conceive a boy in situations like these!

[lilima]

Yep - Jodes, thats how I got pregnant with Miss E! - It must have been at least 4 days later that I ovulated

[Pretty Butterfly]

yep babe, that is exactly how I got into THIS state!!!!!!

DTD Thursday, "O" on Monday,... PREGNANT!!!!!!

[*Ali*]

I was just coming in to ask the exact same question, we dtd on tuesday night, decided on Thursday that it was probably a good idea to put TTC on hold for a couple of months, and then I O'd on thurs night Fri, I think. I guess only time will tell

Its been racking my brain these past few days..
im not charting my cycle or anything.Normally AF visits regularly.. anywho im not trying to concieve atm as ive only been with my boyf for 4mnths.... my last period was 14th oct -20th oct. anyway me and my boyf DTD on the 23rd (i think) and again on the 31st. so im not sure when i ovulated as ive never kept track of temp, mucus etc.. anyway lately ive noticed my nipples are abit darker then they normally are.. which is strange. and my boobs are sore and heavy, lower back pain, feeling like i need to cry at the most random times like at work, umm needing to pee a few more times than normal.. all this could be just period like stuff, im due to get a visit from AF next tuesday. so i shall wait and see if she visits.....

any help on knowing exactly when you ovulated would be great

[chikababy]

i was gonna ask kind the same question have been ttc for 6 mths, this month decided to take a break and did not have none of the usual Ov cramping and did not notice any change in Cm and so thought i had not ovulated anyway my Af was due yesterday but is nowhere to be seen, did a test day before i was due and this morning but both were negative..I know if i ovulated it would have been after day16. Could i still be pregnant am getting backpain on and off but thats about it..No other symptoms of Af coming or pregnancy..

*ali*, retrogal & chikababy - good luck with finding out in the next couple of days/weeks.

I've told dh that it could be possible and he doesn't seem too fazed about it. Time will tell I suppose.

[Visitor7]

Just did a POAS, and it come up with a positive straight away Told DH and he was more interested in the fact that it was a digital one that actually said the word 'positive' on it I reeeeeeally need a drink for this to settle in. I think I'm gonna have to settle with a cup of tea though.

ETA: please keep this off fb, it hasn't sunk in yet.
