5 days after my period finishes, do i get pregnant?
I had my period 11th of Dec. I had sex with my husband yesterday 16h dec.since we don't use condoms just in case one day we have one..
Today morning I feel a bit strange, like stomach a bit unconfortable, a bit sick feeling but nothing like sick... nosea, but i've always had sort of feelings since i have IBS time to time
.. Would I feel pregnant straight away after not even a 24 hour sex? I know that it is after 5 days of my period which finished. I read it takes 34 hours. What does that mean?
Please help. I have NO CLUE with this information
i thought all happens in the body after 2 weeks. But how about next day?
Answer:
You can theoretically get pregnant at any point in your cycle. As far as getting pregnant that quickly after you have sex, you actually don't get pregnant that quickly. It's a few years for me since I was trying to get pregnant so I'm not sure if I remember this right, but if not it's pretty close -- Sperm stays alive in a woman's body for three days. It's takes more than a day for the sperm to swim up to the fallopian tube where sperm meets the egg.
I would recommend the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler http://www.amazon.com/taking-charge-your...
It tells you all about all of this and how to keep track of your own personal cycle as far as when your fertile days are. I found this book when I was trying to get pregnant, but I wished I had read this book years ago back when my focus was trying NOT to get pregnant. It would have made me feel a lot more in control of things, and more informed about it.
As far as part of you wanting to have a baby and part of you being scared. That's completely normal. I think that all moms feel that way. I know I did. Sometimes now even with a 4-year-old and a 2-year-old I feel like I have no clue what I'm doing and I'm not qualified. I have friends also with older kids and kids who are almost grown who say that they still feel that way from time to time. As children we feel like our parents completely knew what they were doing and always had everything together. Once you become a parent you realize that they had no clue either and just made it up as they went along.
This reminds me of a picture of a friend of mine holding her first son. They had just gotten home from the hospital and she was just holding him and looking at him. I always loved that picture and mentioned it to her years later. She told me that that picture made her uncomfortable because at that very minute the picture was taken, she said she was thinking that she had no clue what she was supposed to do. She wanted to get pregnant very very much, and it took her a couple years go get pregnant. But once she actually had the baby in her arms, she was like -what have I done. I have no idea how to raise a baby.
Now, many years later, she has two more boys, is a classic soccer mom, and actually works for the elementary school helping special needs children.
So not only is she a great mom to three beautiful boys, she's a trusted person in the lives of other children.
Being freaked out is a good sign that you really take this seriously and want to be a good mom. That shows the love in your heart for the children who aren't even here yet. It's the moms who really don't care much and don't question whether they're ready or capable that tend to not be the best moms.
I hope you do decide to become a mom someday. You don't have to have all the answers, or even any answers at all to be a great mom. You just have to love your kids and do the best you can. I'm sure you'd be great.
You also mentioned IBS, so I'm going to talk about that.
They're starting to recommend that people with IBS, or IBS-like symptoms be tested for celiac disease, which is an intolerance to gluten (wheat, rye, barley and oats). A lot of people with celiac were misdiagnosed as having IBS for years. (18 years for me). It takes an average of 11 years for a person with celiac to be diagnosed.
Here's a webpage by the National Institutes of Health on celiac -
http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases...
And another from the Mayo Clinic -
http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/celiac-...
If that starts sounding familiar here are a couple of message boards for people with celiac and other gluten intolerances.
http://www.glutenfreeforum.com

You can also be intolerant to other common foods and get the symptoms you are describing. Soy, corn, eggs, yeast, dairy, etc. You may want to think about keeping a food/symptoms journal and see if you can identify the culprit(s).

I doubt you would be feeling anything in one day. It usually takes about 2 weeks.
I would just wait till your due and test!
yes there are chances as sperm stays in the body for 7 days and i think u will start ovulating by that time.there are chances but low.
no you wouldnt feel it less than a day after having sex...its probably your mind playing games with you
