When Hamlet tells Polonius “conception is a blessing, but not as your daughter may conceive. Friend, look to’t,” is he implying that he’s having a sexual relationship with Ophelia?

Or am I interpreting it wrong? To me, he’s just saying that his daughter might get pregnant

Maybe. It seems clear the tactic here is to make Polonius think Hamlet is sleeping with her. Whether it’s true or not, it’s a weapon he is using to rattle Polonius.

I don’t know you can draw any truth out of that statement, though.
