~My husband & I had sex on 9/17 w/a condom(spermicide) AND it Broke on us. We hadn't had sex in awhile BEFORE that & I know that my husband was pretty potent. Oh!
~My Last AF was from 9/2 - 9/7.
~I'm not charting nor temping, so I don't know when I Ovulate. My Cervix was pretty wet down below. I noticed that I was EWCM after having sex that week for several days afterwards.
~From some of the websites (fertiltiy calculations), it says that we had sex during MY Fertile time/Peak time.
~Right now were TTA(trying to Avoid) a pregnancy. This is a Big one!
****QUESTIONS****
What's the likelyhood, of me actually becoming pregnant, when a spermicidal condom broke on us during my ~possible~ fertile time(depending on when I Ovulate)? How soon could I test? I'm on CD# 26 as of today. My husband & I are thinking about taking a pregnancy test on Tuesday, Sept. 30th, is that too soon? I ~should~ be getting my AF soon, within a couple of days, *unless* we're pregnant. My AF is DUE This week! As far as symptoms, I'm having a few, but don't know the diff. between Pregnancy symptoms OR Menstrual Symptoms. I guess I shall wait & see. My cycles have been anywhere between 31 days OR more in the last several several months ago.
Thanks! I'll keep everyone Posted on ANY news!

I tested and my RESULTS were: (-) Negative. Anyway, I take that as being a good thing for me. I bought a double pack HPT last night, so I still have another one for another time/day. ~If~ I don't get my AF, then I'll RE-TEST Again OR ELSE, I'll just wait for my Missed AF. Until then, that's it! I'll report back as SOON as I get my AF! ~crossing fingers still~ Anyway, thanks for all of your support. I'm not too stressed out about it. Lately, I've been pretty calm.
~thanks! Joanna
I'll keep you updated. My last AF was on 9/2

My husband & I had sex on 9/17 & the condom broke. I/we didn't know it was during my fertile time.
I'm on CD#31. I don't know when I ovulated. I did take a HPT on Tuesday A.M. w/FMU and the test results were Negative (-). Anyway, I'm waiting for my AF. I'll be testing on Sunday morning w/FMU. I feel like I'm getting ready to start anytime now - maybe today!
~Joanna
P.S. - I'll be back here again Sunday morning to post the test results, unless my AF decides to show up.
Any news? AF didn't show up yet? hopefully it will be coming too soon.
Keep me posted.I hope everything be ok.
Good luck !
Thanks for checking in on me. I appreciate it. As being that I had family in, from out of town this whole weekend, I didn't get to test this morning at all. Sorry, to make all of you guys wait on me! Anyway, my husband & I are somewhat prepared for me to ~FINALLY~ take THE HPT tomorrow morning. - probably around 7:00 A.M. Eastern Standard Time, before I go to work.
I also have NOT started my period Yet. I'm still (~hopefully~) waiting for my AF to begin. I actually haven't been stressing out too much recently. I did more so, in the beginning. I'm trying to stay calm for what *may* come ahead for my husband & I. Anyway, I/we have this GUT feeling that I might be. Anyway, if we are Indeed pregnant/with a positive pregnancy test, we will be Having this baby & loving it just as much, as if we were to plan it(the pregnancy). Right now, it is just bad timing & for health ins. reasons & that I was ~really~ wanting to go back to college & just wait several yrs. to have or to start a family. We bought our 1st house earlier this year & we're getting used to things. Things don't always go as planned.........
I'll *try* and check in tomorrow A.M., but we'll see, because I/we may be in a shock of state, so it will probably be tomorrow after work - After 6 p.m. E.S.T..
Bye, ~Joanna~
I tested on Monday Sept. 29th and the result was a BFN (-) and I tested today, October 6th and the HPT result was ALSO, BFN (-). 2 HPT just taken within 1 week apart and both of them are BFN (-). I don't know what to think. With both test, I tested with FMU.
What do you think? Any advice for me?
~Thanks, Joanna
Tuesday, October 7, 2003. Today is CD35 and no sign of anything, except for my darn very sore bb's & nips! OUch!
read my previous posts on this page about the 2 BFN tests that I took. I'm going to hold on out till at least Saturday/Sunday and then RE-test Again. If test is still negative OR a no-show of my AF by THIS weekend, then It looks as though I'll be calling my DR.
~Thanks, Joanna
I need your support! I'm starting to stress, just a little.
I know you are stressed. I'm sending good thoughts your way. I have a terribly hard time calming down when I start to get worried about something. So take a walk, watch some bad t.v., and do something for yourself.
Hang in there!

I've been checing out on you whether yo've got yor AF or not. Try to calm down and not stress yorself as this won't change anything itcould just delay your period.If you've tested before for wo times using the same ind of HPT ,i suggest that you try another brand if you still didn't get your Af within two days.Try the first response, i have rewad that serveral women used it and it gives an early result (if you're pregnant)I hope you recieve your AF soon and everything goes ot the way you want.Don't worry, everything will be fine and i hope your AF shows up soon. I'll be checking everywhile on you.keep me posted. Good Luck!
