How long is your usual cycle? You could still be fertile on day 19.

You are most fertile on the days leading up to ovulation with fertility dropping off a few hours after you have ovulated.

So... when did you ovulate? That's the question.

If you ovulated on Tues and had sex today then no you won't be pg in all probability. The egg starts to decline as soon as it's released if not fertilised. After a day it's probably of no use.

Thing is, the pain in your ovary might not have been ovulation, might have been a sign of it approaching for example and you actually ovulated today.

If you don't want a child take the MAP.

And stop getting so carried away. Having unprotected sex and hoping for the best isn't a viable contraception. Even if you did it standing up.
