    Congratulation... unprotected sex means you want pregnant.

    The morning after pill isn't a substitute for birth control... and as you have found out... its not 100% effective. Sorry to sound so harsh... but that little bit of time to get and put on a condom doesn't seem so unbearable now does it. My answer is as much for those who might be reading this thread that do the same thing that haven't found out the hard way yet for themselves. And a lot will read this.

    The only way to do it is the right way... from the beginning.

    When your OB/GYN takes a guess at a due date... you backtrack and then you have a date that has a plus or minus 2 week period before and after... meaning an ENTIRE MONTH... that conception occurred. There is no possible way at this point in time any doctor can be more precise than that.

    Anyone you slept with that 4 week period could be the father.

    I'm confused. You don't mention confirming that you're pregnant. You're assuming you are because of the missed periods. The morning after pill can throw off your period.

    So, have you tested for pregnancy?

    The monring after pill, even when taken the same day, is not 100 percent effective. There is no way to tell "when you got pregnant" exactly, in a few months, they will do ultrasound and give you a estimated conception date. ** it is not exaxt, no mater what they say** it is give or take a week, even two sometimes. so all estimates of conception is always a estimate.

    Many women get pregnant on their period. That's a very false belief women have any SAFE days and has resulted in MANY women finding themselves pregnant..

    I have to ask. Are you wondering when you got pregnant because it's a question of paternity?

    If there is a question at all , DNA test needs to be done to find out who the father is...

    The Doctors can only guess to a 4 week period when it happened... if you slept with more than one that month... you have to have a DNA test done after the child's birth.
