has anyone heard of or experienced conceiving while on af?

[jzgrace]

I read that it happens in women with short cycles. SO and I DTD one day prior to AF and a few times during(sorry tmi) I have a short 23 day cycle. A few days after AF ended I got pink cm and have been cramping since. Anyone ever experienced this or heard of someone who did? Please respond. Ty in advance

My mom told me she got pg with me on her AF, she only had 21 day cycles.

it all depends on when you O and how long your LP is! I O around cd6 so I do need to be dtding during AF if I want a chance lol. I also have 23 day cycles.
when I fell pregnant with DD we only dtd on cd8, 9 and 10 of a then 35 day cycle (with AF that lasted a week)
it is possible good luck!

When do you test?

On your 23 day cycle when do you do a hpt? My AF ended about 8 days ago. Then 3 days later I got pink cm. Idk if it was ovulation or implantation. I've been cramping since and took a hpt thus morning bfn. I don't know if I tested too early or if it really is negative.

Sperm can live for up to 5 days (although 3 is more likely in terms of still being strong enough to fertilize an egg). So if you had a four day long AF, had sex on the last day and then ovulated on day 7 you could theoretically conceive. That'd give you a cycle of 21 days on average (7+14). So I guess it's possible but that's pretty tight!

do you have any idea what your O date is, jzgrace?

 

[jzgrace]

No I don't. In haven't been actively trying so I haven't really taken note of any cm, just noticed really sore breasts a week before AF, and then after AF pink cm and cramping.
