Pregnant before conception

Let me start by saying that my BF is generally a very smart man. That being said, he cannot comprehend how or why you are considered pregnant in those two (or so) weeks before conception. I've explained countless times that thats when my cycle began and thats how most doctors count. I showed him the week by week book that explains everything and he just wont accept it.

"How can you be 6 wks pregnant if 6 weeks ago you weren't pregnant?" 

Anyone else have trouble explaining this?

Re: Pregnant before conception

  • Yes! My grandmother knows I am pregnant, when she asked if I took a pregnancy test I couldn't lie and she asked because DH had just got home for Tx. Anyways when I say that I am 5 weeks she gets irritated. I have tried explaining it to her and she wont listen. She says " There is no way you are pregnant before you have sex, so I don't want to hear you say that, you are only 3 weeks." She gets so mad she wont talk about the pregnancy at all.
  • Just tell him that the doctors are stupid :P. I did IVF and joked around at the start of my cycle that I was x days pregnant (even though I was still waiting around to ovulate/etc.). It's silly!

    Ha ha - That could get out of hand. I can see him goggle-ing everything the doc says anyway to Make Sure.. Did I mention my BF is a Google Doctor? lol
