Can a girl get pregnant 2days before her period?

No, by the time a woman is two days off menstruation the egg is long dead - ovulation typically occurs two weeks before menstruation, and at most there is only a viable egg present for 48 hours. Typically a woman will not have fertile quality cervical mucus present at this point either. However unless a woman uses fertility awareness methods she cannot know exactly when she is fertile or when she is not, also often women can mistake vaginal bleeding for other reasons (such as ovulation bleeding) for menstruation so assume they are not pregnant when actually they may be at risk of pregnancy or already be pregnant. Long answer short is that it is not possible, however if a woman wants to avoid unwanted pregnancy she should always use birth control.

How do you calculate conception date?

To calculate conception you can go from the first day of your last period and add two weeks eg if your last period was on the first of the month then conception would have taken place at around the 15th . If you do not no the first day of your last period but no how many weeks pregnant you are then count back and minus two weeks eg if you are seventeen weeks on the 2nd of September go back on the calendar 15 weeks this will give you a approximate conception date


If you were told you conceived on February 10 2007 and the first day of your lmp was January 27 2007 but when you do the pregnancy calculators they say you are 5 weeks pregnant--how is that possible?

Pregnancy supposedly (medically) lasts for 40 weeks. In reality it lasts for 38 weeks from conception. Conception occurs approximately 14 days after your last period started for a woman who has a 28 day cycle. So everyone's pregnancy is based on these mythical 14 days eventhough very few women have a 28 day cycle! Medically they count these 14 days within the 40 weeks you are pregnant. You are considered 2 weeks pregnant at the moment of conception! Therefore three weeks after "The Deed" you are considered 5 weeks pregnant. Your doctor will not really care when you fell pregnant, s/he will be more concerned about the date of your last period and count from there.


Now I'm 5 months and 2 weeks pregnant when did I fall pregnant?

If you are currently 5 months and 2 weeks pregnant, it means that you likely conceived your baby around 21 weeks and 3 days ago. This is based on the assumption that pregnancy is typically calculated as starting from the first day of your last menstrual period, which is usually about two weeks before conception. However, it's important to keep in mind that due dates are estimates and not exact dates, as the exact timing of conception and the length of pregnancy can vary from woman to woman. Your healthcare provider can help you determine your estimated due date and provide more information about your pregnancy.

If a woman's periods are not regular and she falls pregnant how accurately can one then determine the conception date from an ultrasound?

For about the first 10-12 weeks all babies grow at about the same rate so term date can be calculated fairly accurately, you then count back 38 weeks for the date of conception. After 12 weeks babies may not all grow at the same rate so it becomes less accurate.

What is gestational vs fetal age?

Gestational age- starts with the first day of the mothers last menstrual period. Fetal age- starts with conception. Since conception is almost never known doctors and midwifes in the u.s. talk about a woman's pregnancy using gestational weeks because its much easier to identify the first day of the last menstrual period, than actual date of conception. So you're already considered 2 weeks pregnant from the moment you conceive. On average a woman has about a 28 day cycle with a 14 day lutheal phase, which means most women will conceive their baby approximately 2 weeks after their period.
