Question

How likely to get pregnant from having sex 5 days before ovulation?

Hi ladies, I was just wondering how likely it is to get pregnant 5 days before ovulation? My app tells me all 5 days before ovulation that I am “fertile” and “high chance of pregnancy” I was just wondering how likely that is to be correct? Because I did have sex 5 days before ovulation, I am now 2 days before and I obviously can’t test yet ! X

It happened to me my last cycle, I’m 8 weeks today. I ended up ovulating later than usual (were going to try next cycle) and the morning after dtd I started to have ewcm again and I ovulated 5 days later. US measures exactly to that date also.

My 8 month old was 5-6-7? days before expected O.

Only DTD once that cycle, just after AF had left, around CD 6 or 7 of a 26/27 day cycle (O a round CD14 with 12 day LP) It was a big surprise as 1- We weren't trying, and 2- I didn't think it could be possible for a BFP after DTD that early on.
But here he is! I could have, but don't think I would have, O'd earlier??? as I had used OPKs for several months beforehand and had a very regular 26/27 day cycle for the 18 months before that.

So, While it's not common apparently, it's possible! I still look at him and wonder how he is even here lol
