Hailey,
I just found this thread and I must say for a moment there I was a little worried about you.
I am glad for the turn it has taken.
I have no statistics, or words of wisdom that you haven't already heard, I think you have gotten very good advice.
I only want to say that I truly hope that you have dodged the bullet this time.
But I hope you use this as a learning experience.
Keep us posted, I think I know of a few people who are concerned about your predicament and you.

I'm talking about the people here who have been answering your post, not personally.
What I have figured out about the people here are they really do care.
They are mothers, fathers, grandparents, every day people from all walks of life and they are here because they do care.

I understand, that's a lot of stress for a young lady, And I think you lashed out because of some of the confusion and uncertainty you were feeling.
The important thing is that you know now these people aren't out to get you, they only wanted to help.
I bet once you read back you saw suggestions and advice you really didn't look that good at before because of being upset.
Soak it all in it's good advice.
Good luck to you dear, I'm keeping up with this OK?
I want to know how you are doing.

You're frustrated, and upset, and stressed. We get that. We really do. I've been in the same boat you've been in, and sadly, I didn't learn anything from it. But I got very lucky. Very very lucky. I found out later that I had a condition (easily fixed) that would never have allowed me to get pregnant (until it was fixed, which it was). So maybe it wasn't all just luck. It was my body too.
Fact is, I put myself at risk too many times when I was a teen. I wish I had known then what I know now.
Really, everything I've written to you, are the very words I will tell my daughter when she's old enough to hear them.
There's absolutely no reason why you have to learn from your own mistakes. You can learn from others mistakes too.
Please let us know what happens. I sincerely hope that you're not pregnant, and that what you're feeling right now, comes back to you the next time you're in a passionate moment and thinking about having sex.
Babies are tough work. I have two kids. Babies are the most selfish creatures on the face of this Earth, Dog love them, and they will test everything you have in you. I was 27 when I had my first child. I was married, financially secure, owned a home, you name it. I thought I was ready. I was ready in all the ways that mattered, but I have to tell you, it was hard. Being a parent is the hardest job I've ever had, and I used to clean toilets in a welding shop! ;)
We're here if you need any help. We're here for you when you find out whether you're pregnant or not, and if you are, we're here to help by discussing the options you have, and just for moral support.
I've been on this site for 4 and a half years. The people here are great. I'd trust them with my own kids. :)

If you find comfort (or alarm) in the statistics these sites offer, then fine. But the facts are that you had multiple deposits of sperm during a period when you were probably most fertile. So the probability that an egg would be fertilized under those conditions is a least 50/50 as J_9 said. Could be much higher though. Think of it this way. Lets say you have a bunch of 1 ft square tiles. Lets say you spread 10 of them out around you and you throw a bean bag in the air. The probability of the bag landing on a tile is one number. Now spread out more tiles and the odds increase. Throw up 2 bags and the odds further increase. That's what you have done, you spread a lot of tiles and have thrown multiple bean bags. But no one can really say what the odds are that a bean bag will hit a tile.

She asked for odds. There are sites that appear to be legitimate like Princeton who are willing to state their findings and make general predictions, which we all know are not guarantees. But that doesn't make predictions based on science worthless.
She hasn't expressed any comfort or alarm based on my post. The odds of your bean bag hitting a particular tile certainly can be computed based on mathematical probability so long as it is clear set of circumstances given.

When you find an equation that tells me the exact odds of a bean bag hitting tiles, when someone random is throwing it. Let me know, statistics and odds are not based of fact, but of guessing and assuming.
And we all know what they say about assuming.
