How Long Does Sperm Live Outside The Body?
Could I be pregnant?
So my boyfriend and I were talking about having a baby and I figured out I would be ovulating between the 2/27-3/2. We ll when it came time to try for the baby he wasn t sure he was ready and we used a condom. About 20-30 minutes later I took the sperm out of the condom and used a softcup to get the sperm close to my cervix. But now I m worried I m going to get pregnant and he ll be mad. Do you think that I could still get pregnant with the spermicide on the condom and I didn t use anything to shoot it up there just put it in a soft cup and put that as close to my cervix as I could. I fell asleep with it in and it was in there for about 6 hours!
