I'm starting to freak out after everything I'm reading about sperm living for 3-5 days (which I knew, but seeing it in print right now is even more real to me now). In case it's not obvious, we are not trying to have another baby right now...We had sex on Monday night and I'm a little unclear on when I ovulated because my body is doing things differently this time. Normally, I feel a lot of discomfort the day that I ovulate. Felt that on Thursday and started getting nervous. In a nutshell, I'm almost positive I either ovulated by mid-day yesterday or sometime this morning. For all of my other pregnancies, we had sex as late as the day before or even the day of ovulation, so I don't have personal experience with getting pregnant after having sex days before. I didn't notice any EW fluid on Monday, but did on Tuesday. Am I pregnant? (KIDDING!)
Plugging in a clicky poll isn't working, so please tell me below how many days before you ovulated that you had sex (the LAST day that you had sex).
Re: XP: How many days before ovulation did sex result in conception?

I don't disagree that it wasn't smart. In fact, I pretty much said the same thing to DH. I didn't bother going into a lot of detail in my post, but based on previous cycles, I would have normally had at least 5 days before ovulating. My body had different plans this time. I just think that you shouldn't be one to throw stones when you said that DD was an "oops." It obviously happens.
