Brief Answer: Can be from your Ex- boyfriend. Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for trusting us with your health concern. The pregnancy that you have could be due to the sex you had on July 16 with your Ex- boyfriend. It is difficult to pinpoint the time of your ovulation now after the conception has taken place. The best way to know this is to get a paternity test (DNA Test) done after the child is born. Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.

Brief Answer: Yes. Detailed Answer: Hello. Thanks for writing again. Yes . Implantation usually happens after 7-8 days and a small sac can be seen at 10 days post ovulation or conception. Hope my answer is helpful. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish you good health. Regards

Brief Answer: Embryo is not same as sac size. Detailed Answer: Sac size and embryo size are two different things. A sac size of 2mm can be detected 10 days after the conception. The embryo is detectable after 5 weeks since last menstrual period. Regards.

I'm always saying the embyro's size not the sac size.is it possitble to see a 2mm size "embryo" after 10 days sex ?that is my question
doctor
Answered by Dr. Dr. Rakhi Tayal (8 hours later)
Brief Answer: Conceived on or before 12th July. Detailed Answer: I am sorry I misunderstood your question earlier. Detection of an embryo of size 2mm on 26 th July means that you conceived on or before 12th July. This suggests that the baby you have is not your ex- boy friend's. Please do not worry. Regards.
