You're welcome. And I'm sorry the answers aren't any easier, but unfortunately with no way of knowing for sure, DNA testing is the only way. I hope it turns out in your favor!

If you're asking because you're questioning paternity, a man's sperm can survive inside you for up to 5-7 days, so there's really no way of knowing for sure except by DNA testing. It's almost impossilble to tell exactly which day you conceived as well, like I said most women ovulate about 14 days before their period starts, BUT you can have off months where you ovulate earlier or later than expected. So if it's for paternity that you're asking, I'm sorry but the only way to know 100% for sure is a DNA test. If you had sex Oct 8th and ovulated Oct 10th then you would have conceived Oct 8th. BUT if you had sex with two different men the 8th and 10th then it could be either way...

On or around. It depends on your cycle, most women ovulate about 14 days before their period is due, so if you know when you were supposed to start you can count back about 14 days and that's the day you ovulated. If you're questioning paterninty and had sex with more than one person around that day it's impossible to tell for sure who the father is without a DNA test. I got pregnant around the 17th of October with my son and was due July 9.

You became pregnant by the egg being fertilized, BUT most doctors use the first day of your last period as the first day of pregnancy because they can't tell exactly when the egg implanted. The first ultrasound will give you more of an accurate due date.
