Question

Chance of pregnancy? Sex day before ovulation NOT on day of ovulation.

Hi, my OV date was 5th April. I had unprotected sex on the 4th and 3rd and 1st... i am 20 years old..
Is it likely I could be pregnant ? I would be 12dpo and I've had sore boobs for like 6 days now, when I take my bra off it feels like weights hitting the floor and the edges of my breasts are so sore and it hurts when bf sucks my nips during sex ( sorry tmi)

I have had no other symptoms...

Also I don't understand how I can get pregnant when most of the 'cum' leaks out straight away

I believe that you timed your intercourse perfectly for pregnancy. Most doctors recommend that, for improved chances of pregnancy, people should have sex on the day before the ovulation, as it allows enough time to sperm to become "activated" and move closer to the egg for when it's released the next day.

What comes out of you is the seminal fluid, which, yes, contains sperm cells, but also some of the spermatozoa have a chance to move up your cervix and into your uterus, even as the fluid comes out. Remember that sperm cells are live, motile cells, and like fish up a stream, they can move up while fluid is coming down (out).

You may want to test with an early pregnancy test at this time or consider waiting until a missed period, if you are, in fact, pregnant. Best of luck!

Your dates are perfect for a viable pregnancy. I would take a first response 6 days sooner. At 12dpo there would likely be a faint to dark positive line.
