    When did I get pregnant?
    I took Plan b sept 23rd 2012. I started bleeding on the 27th of sept, and I'm guessing it was my period because it was 7 days long. I have a regular 28 day cycle. I am now pregnant. My question is what day did I conceive?

    There's really no way to determine your conception date. An ultrasound will give you a guess, but it's only a guess, not exact.

    Is this a question of paternity?

    Yes, I know that DNA is only the way to know for sure. However, I have done much research on this topic.. An I just want to hear what other people think. Like I stated, I have a very regular period. So from what I understand most women ovulate the on the 14th day.. I also understand, that some women with 28 day cycles do not. I just didn't know if plan b could make me ovulate later then day 14? And if so, how long do you think?

    Unless you've taken your basal temperature every day for at least 6 months to determine when you ovulate, there's no way to know when you ovulated.

    Plan B will definitely mess up your cycle, so even if you knew when you ovulate every month, the plan b pill may have altered it,but how, or if, no one can know.

    You won't find the answer to this any other way other than a DNA test, if this is a question of paternity. I know you want the answer, and you want it now, but there's no way to give you that answer.

    Good luck.

    Well I am 39 weeks today. And it's not a secret. And it's not like I have much more time to wait. I'm just as anxious, to be honest. And I just find it odd that I took plan b to prevent this from happening then I get pregnant almost two weeks later? And neither of the partners I was with ejaculated inside of me. However I know this is not the right form of birth control. I will be sure to inform my daughter of this knowledge. I never knew a single thing about a lutereal phase or ovulation until I got pregnant. All I knew was I got a period every 28 days for 7 days.

    Remember that there is no form of birth control that is 100% effective. Women get pregnant frequently using one, or multiple forms of birth control.
