I'm afraid its much too late for the morning after pill, you will ust have to wait and see if your period comes.





To get pregnant from intercourse 7-8 days bedore your period starts, would mean that you have a 7-8 day luteal phase, this is generally unlikely, and would most likely be too short so support a pregnancy anyway. Seeing as you allready have a child, I'd guess that your luteal phase is longer than 7-8 days, so i don't think you will be pregnant.|||Everyone's body is different when it decides to ovulate. Most people ovulate 11-14 days after the start of their period which is like 2 weeks after but this doesn't always happen like that. If you are not planning another baby right now, then never have unprotected sex.. The only thing I know of is the morning after pill.. I don't agree with abortions because there are soooo many people out there that can't have babies that would do anything to love one of someone elses' so I wouldn't have unprotected sex anytime if you aren't wanting another one really soon.. Have a good day and Good Luck!|||If you are pregnant, the "Plan B" (emergency contraception) pill is intended to be taken within 72 hours (3 days) of unprotected sex. You should NOT take it now.





The "best" time to have sex to get pregnant is the day before, the day of, or the day after you ovulate.





Most women ovulate 14 days before their period.





If your periods are regular, and if you ovulate 14 days before your period, you may not be at a high risk for pregnancy.





However, not all women ovulate on a schedule. The menstrual cycle is controlled by hormones produced by the brain, and factors such as stress, diet, exercise, and medication can affect this cycle.





I understand that you're worried. However, there is literally nothing you can do right now about your situation other than to wait to see if your period starts. Once it's a week to 10 days late, you may want to take a urine pregnancy test.





If you don't want to have another child, please consider using some type of contraception. This article discusses your body, his body, and contraception and is an excellent "Owner's Manual" for all couples to read. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/birth-c鈥?/a>|||Unprotected sex is never safe. But there's little you can do about it now but wait for your period as the morning after pill only works for 72 hours after sex. Be more careful next time and hopefully you won't have to deal with an unplanned pregnancy, good luck.
