Is it Possible?

Well you think me of all people would know the answer to this question but for the life of me I can't seem to remember! Nor can I find anything in all of the textbooks and Doula books I own!!!!

How long can sperm survive in the Vagina???

We had a little accident 3 days prior to me O'ing and I am a little paranoid that the little buggers might have still been up there to meet my Ovum!

I'm only 11DPO so not late yet but I've been having a few "symptoms" which may or may not be pregnancy related!

So can anyone enlighten me?

Cheers!

Thanks for your help girls!

oooooooooooooo Sara!! Cant wait to hear about your BFP!!

According to FF (Fertility Friend)

How long can sperm survive in fertile cervical fluid?
The longest that sperm can survive in fertile (eggwhite) cervical fluid is five days. All pregnancies can be attributed to intercourse that takes place within the five days before ovulation and the day of ovulation.

Sperm, however, do not typically survive for five days, even in fertile cervical fluid. A life span of 2-3 days is much more typical for sperm, even in fertile cervical fluid- less if there is no fertile cervical fluid.

Thanks for the input ladies!

I almost brought a pg test today when I did the groceries but I thought I'd just hold out and leave it until I am at least late!!!

I must admit I am in two minds about the possibility! I am clucky as hell but the rational part of my brain is really pushing for me to get my studies done!

So the countdown is on to Tuesday!! EEEEEK!

Oooooh how possibly exciting!!! Go the super sperm!

i am tingling with anticipation Sara..

For those that are interested: (from Fertility Friend)

The days when conception is possible are the days just before and including the day of ovulation. Based on the MAXIMUM lifespan of human sperm and ova, (five days for sperm and one day for the ovum) this fertile window is at MOST six days. This MAXIMUM window is thus made up of the five days before ovulation and the day of ovulation.

Though pregnancy is technically possible during this six day window, most pregnancies actually can be attributed to intercourse from within TWO DAYS before ovulation up to the day of ovulation.

This makes for a practical fertile window of just THREE DAYS each cycle: the TWO DAYS before ovulation and the DAY OF OVULATION itself.

Edited to say: Yes there is a slight pang of dissappintment. But also a feeling of relief too.

:hug:

:hug:

was gonna ask if there was a breath of relief too.

Now you can focus on your studies.

Pregnancy scares are so cruel, we freak out, then we get excited at the prospect, then AF comes and we get disappointed!

BTDT, lol :)
