    You can get pregnant having unprotected sex even DURING your Period...

    So yeah... you might be... you will have to take a prenancy test to find out for sure. Until then all anyone is doing is guessing.

    It is not likely that you are pregnant, but there are no guarantees. Your ovulation probably finished long before you had sex, but there is a small chance that the egg could live that long.

    The egg only lives for 26-36 hours at best. However, sperm can live in the vagina/uterus/fallopian tubes for up to 3-5 days. While there is a slim chance as Rick has said, there is still a possibility as ovulation can change from month to month in some women.

    Jmw09, count the advice from J_9 as the best advice as she is a Nurse.

    To avoid pregnancy, either abstain from sex or use a reliable contraceptive.

    Second that... plus add the point I was hinting at... unless you know your actual ovulation cycle (which is a tedious task to do and few people know)... you won't know when it occurs for certain.
