I know. I just cant get an amnio on my own. I need a referal from my OB and she said I do not need one. She is insisting that sperm live for 24 hours. He didnt ejac in me, for sure - however, I was told by a nurse that it doesnt matter. There could be "left over" sperm there or possibly pass seminal fluid without me knowing. This just stinks. I dont see my OB again til the end of July.
Just when I was feeling okay....

Just when I was feeling okay about my "situation," my friend emails me this:
Organization did studies looking at when conceptions occur related to intercourse. Approximately 10% of all conceptions occur from intercourse seven or more days prior to ovulation. Because some men's sperm can live up to two weeks in the woman's Fallopian Tube,
Great - my OB said 72 hours and i was fine, but now i read this. should i take an amnio? i just need an answer....
Thank you

( penetration from man #1 on friday at noon / he did not ejaculate)
full penetration & ejacualtion from man #2 on tuesday 8pm and wednesday 7am. My ovulation was confirmed on that wednesday)

Casey- I am not a doctor, but honestly I think its nearly impossible to become pregnant with out ejaculation and then you were a day away of ovulation or so.. I am sure your OB is right.. I have read sperm can last up to 3-5 days in EWCM.. did you have sex with your DH before having sex with man # 1 ?? I know you had it with DH after man # 1 but just wondering if you had it before
Casey- I don't think you have anything to worry about. I have never heard of sperm living 7 days... I've always heard UP to 3 days.... maybe that info is used as a "scare tactic" for teens? I don't know- I'd hate to think that a nurse would provide bad information to anyone, but maybe it is a scare tactic???? I sincerely doubt that man #1 is the father- ESPECIALLY because he did not ejaculate.
Casey - I am soooo sure that this child is your DH's. I have never heard that sperm can live so long in the tubes, and if it were true dont you think many more woman would get pregnancy sooner rather than later. Try not to worry yourself, it's Dh's!
can I ask wheter DH knows about this? Will it make a difference who the father is in the long run, are you keeping the baby no matter what? If so, I think you should just stop stressing. If aftet birth you are still concerned have a DNA test done then, when there is no risk involved. Just my humble opinion:)

I don't think we should judge. Everybody makes mistakes. I love that I can come on here and say anything without the fear of being judged, I hope we can keep it that way.
Casey- Try to relax. If you are sure all your dates are correct there is NO way man #1 is the father. Enjoy this time with your dh and put your mind at ease! Good Luck to you!

Ashlee- your comments seem to be judgemental, even if that wasn't the intent. This is not a site to judge morals or ideals of others. Everyone is more than welcome to a personal opinion, but we need to respect and support one another on this site. Clearly not everyone on here will agree with all peoples choices, but during those times it might be best to just not read those posts and focus on the positive ones that help you in your journey! baby dust to all...
i agree never judge, untill you your self is in that sistuation. i have been following your story casey and i understand that no matter what anyone says you still have that doubt. untill you /if you have this dna done your mind want rest. i do personaly agree that its 99% your DHs baby, and that if you want to worry about this it up to you how you deal with this situation. we are here for you to support only, and have a vent..... thats what friends are for :)

If the first guy never ejaculated, then why do you think it was him ? Honestly you should just get the amnio, I am sure its your DH's but you are going to drive yourself crazy with always wondering.. and even after the baby comes, you are still going to wonder.. thats just my oppinion I think you will feel better when you know
