Answer 1

Yes.  Sperm can live in your body for 2-3 days before you ovulate--just "hanging around".  So it is very possible.  You can also get pregnant the day of, of course, and possibly a day after.

Answer 2

hi.  sperm can live in your system for approximately 5 days after intercourse depending on the conditions of your cervical mucus..  if you ovulated 3 days after intercourse then it is a possibly you could get pregnant.  wait till it is time for your expected period and test.

Answer 3

If you had s*x before you ovulated, then there's a chance. The chances is greater of getting pregnant then, vs. waiting until the day of ovulation. It takes the sperm something like 12 hours to get to where your egg is. It sounds like there's a chance. Good luck!

Answer 4

Yes, it is possible.
