Conceive
Hi there!
I just typed in google the word "conceive", as it was not clear how to use it. Then I got overwhelmed by different sentences.
So, when the husband conceives (he made his wife conceived?) then the wife conceives (got conceived by her husband?) and as a result, the prospective baby conceives as well (got conceived?).
Can this word really be applied in all of these contexts?
And does the husband conceives his wife or just simply conceives?
And is it also true that we conceive certain thought, ideas etc. in our mind?
LOL Thx in advance!

All right. Thx!
And what do I say if I want to express that (for example) Steve got Mary pregnant? (Nicely, in a way I can tell anybody, but not in medical terms). Or is that it?
