Can you get pregnant if you have sex everyday after your period ended and your boyfriend came in you every time?

Yes, of course. You can get pregnant if you have sex once.

OK thanks. Also, do I have to wait till I have a missed period to find out if I'm pregnant??

chase9212... it is important to note that while you may have had sex everyday, it does not guarantee pregnancy. Timing is only part of the equation, albeit a major part. This is why, while most couples will become pregnant in the first year of trying, others will take longer even with good timing.

Best time to test is when you miss a period. Some tests may pick it up a few days before your period is due, but results tend to be more accurate once a period is actually missed.

Since you are trying to become pregnant, be sure you are taking a prenatal or multivitamin already. Most will have at least 400 mcg of folic acid, which is important to try and have enough of even before you conceive. A prenatal vitamin is sort of like insurance if you know your diet isn't as good as it could be. It is also wise to make any other lifestyle changes (both you and your partner) that you know would be healthy.
