Only if a couple...: That can happen only if a couple tries very hard to do that. Without an intent to do that, meaning there is just kissing and oral sex in the usual course of events, such activities would not create a baby. For the lowest chances of pregnancy, each person should swallow well... as sperm and semen that go into the stomach simply get digested.
