My fiancee and I had unprotected sex on late Friday night/early Saturday morning and he came inside me. According to my period tracker app my fertile days started Friday and go through September 1st, which I would ovulate on the 31st. I also did some research that said that in order to concieve a girl you are supposed to have sex 3-4 days before ovulation, which would of been Saturday. So I was wondering if anyone has got pregnant 4 days before ovulation and what are my chances of being pregnant? Also, what date should I test? Thanks!!
Answer
Yes. It is definetly possible to get pregnant if you have sex a few days before ovulation. because sperm can survive inside of you for up to 3-5 days after sex. so the sperm can wait around for you to ovulate and release an egg. I have heard about that technique, for getting pregnant with a girl vs. a boy. i don't really know how easy that would be to follow. but you could try it. having sex a few days before ovulation is more likely to result in a girl tho. because girl sperm lasts longer than the boy sperm does. but boy sperm swims faster. so if you have sex right when you ovulate higher chance of getting a boy. so you never know. take a test about 2-3 weeks after last having sex and that should be accurate. or around the time you expect your next period.
good luck to you

I had unprotected sex two days before ovulation. Could i be pregnant?
Answer
In ideal conditions, sperm can survive as long as five days in the reproductive tract. Most of them don't survive that long, but it is possible. It takes time for the sperm to travel from the vagina through the cervix and uterus and into the fallopian tubes to fertilize an egg. Two days before ovulation is indeed, very possible to become pregnant.
Consider, for example that couples dealing with low sperm count often are told to time sex such that the have intercourse two days before ovulation, the day of ovulation and two days after ovulation.
