.That you can get pregnant 5 days before ovulation...obviously you wouldn't get pregnant until ovulation but from BDing 5 days before ovulation I mean..ever happened to anyone?

It happens, but you have to have very good-almost perfect 'conditions' in your vaj for sperm to live that long in there. And obviously there is really no way to know if you have that or not.

This. It's definitely a long shot (no pun intended!), but it's possible.

Hmmm, honestly I don't think the chances are very good.  That's a pretty long time, but who knows?!  Good luck!

I believe this is my current situation.  I know b/c I was charting and auctually TTA.  I had unprotected sex on Feb 8th, I expected to O on Feb 14th but auctually O'd on Feb 13th. 

That being said I also had sex using condoms on Feb 9th and 12th so there is a chance that the condoms failed but I think it is more likely that I got PR by sperm that I was carrying around for 5 days.

I think the odds are low, but definitely possible.  If you have a very favorable environment and have some good quality sperm, it can happen!
