Unprotected sex 3 days after having ovulation pain

[mummof1]

Hey ladies ! I haven’t been on here in forever . I used this site religiously when TTC baby #2 and 3 !

So hubby and I had unprotected sex 3 days after I felt my typical ovulation pain (dull to sometimes strong ache on one side of my lower abdomen each month around ovulation time) .. I was experiencing some EWCM at the time we DTD but figured it was probably safe because I had felt that pain, 3 days prior .

Could there still be a chance I could have gotten pregnant ? We aren’t trying ... we just get tired of using condoms all the time so sometimes we won’t use them if we think it’s a “safe” time.

I’m now late for my period but I also felt that ovulation pain later in my cycle this time ... usually I feel it CD 15 (maybe 16/17 the latest)and this time I didn’t have ovulation symptoms even start until CD 18 and the pain was felt CD 19 and 20 ... we DTD CD 23.

Hope this isn’t confusing !
TIA for any replies

Oh yes every chance.
With one of mine I felt ovulation and has ewcm on the Saturday and didn't dtd til the following Thursday and some how fell pregnant- id be testing! What CD are you on?

 

[mummof1]

Oh geez lol that’s crazy . I guess any time you don’t use protection, there’s a chance !
I’m on CD 30 , usually when I ovulate CD 15/16 I will get my period around CD 29/30.
I’m thinking with the late ovulation symptoms and pain maybe my period isn’t expected this cycle for another few days or so.

Yes definitely a chance as you don't necessarily have ovulation pains precisely when you ovulate, they can start a few days before, on the day, and go on afterwards. Are you testing?

 

[mummof1]

Very true ... I don’t really know what that pain means !
I think since I did feel ovulation symptoms later in my cycle than usual, I might hold off on testing for a few more days . My luteal phase is almost always 14 days and right now , going by that pain, I’m at about 11 days.

Does it make sense that my cycle would be longer if ovulation was later than usual?

 

[happycupcake]

Yes, if you ovulated later in your cycle then you would have a longer cycle. Your luteal phase doesn't usually change and if it does, it doesn't usually vary by more than a couple of days. However, if you think you're about 11dpo then a test may work. Some are later and some earlier, but if you're happy to wait it out fair enough. I'm impatient and can't wait for anything lol

I took an FRER and I was absolutely convinced a line was forming . I could even see it after a few minutes but so faint unsure if it had colour ..now looking st it again it’s lighter somehow . So not sure what to think !!!
I might only be about 9 days past ovulation ... not sure since I don’t know what precisely I ovulated .
Ugh lol
I just want an answer

[happycupcake]

I can see that, when did you use it?

 

[mummof1]

I held my pee and took another lol ugh I still don’t know ! It looks pink but it’s very very light

 

[LoraLoo]
