QuestionI was with my ex for 8 years, and never got pregnant. We were broken up, and I started dating this guy in December. On May 5, I had relations with my ex, and on May 25, I had it with the guy Im dating. My first day of my last period was May 14, is there any possible way this baby could be my ex's baby? I also was with my ex April 26, and the first day of my last period in April was April 16. Could I have gotten pregnant in April, because I was told that you always get one last period before you find out?
AnswerNo, you do not always get one last period. What some women experience is implantation bleeding, which can occur about the time the next period would have occurred; however, this bleeding should be significantly lighter and shorter than a full period, and it does not occur in all women. Unless your May 14 period was unusually light and scanty, I would assume the baby is from your current boyfriend. If you are truly unsure, it would be good to get an ultrasound done soon, before it is too late to accurately date your pregnancy.
