She then went to her ob-gyn and her pregnancy was confirmed postitive, the dr stated that the date she and my brother gave did not match up with the size of the fetus, it seemed a week too small.

The dr told them that maybe they were off with her time of ovulation and that sperm had a life span of 3-5 days, that is where I am concerned, doesn't sperm die very rapidly, and is it possible for a sperm to have made contact with a ripe egg but not start the fertilization process till several days later, ups to about a week.

I spoke with my ob-gyn and he seemed quite puzzled by the circumstances I had stated, and he thought that maybe he felt that this couplemay have only mis-stated the actual date of intercourse which would have caused thid pregnancy.
