In order... Were you fertile? I don't know. I've never met you, let alone checked anything about fertility, and you didn't share relevant information...
Does it matter if you were fertile? Yes. If you're not fertile, you don't get pregnant. If you don't believe me, ask your dictionary.
Could you be pregnant? Again, not enough information...
Let me try explaining it; maybe this will help...
A woman ovulates about 2 weeks (typically 12-16 days) before the first day of her *next* period. Sperm can live in the female body up to 3-5 days if conditions are right. The egg itself only lives for a few hours; it is probably dead by the time you could know you have ovulated.
So, you have to have sex *before* ovulation in order to get pregnant. It also helps if your husband has sperm--something which is pretty unlikely if you are having sex twice a day.
So...if your cycles are usually 32-42 days long, you *may* have ovulated at a time to get pregnant between 29 June and 1 July.
Please read _Taking Charge of Your Fertility_ by Toni Weschler for a detailed explanation of all of the above and more.
Good luck!!

Yes, you could be pregnant. You need to learn about your cycle. Can you tell when you are ovulating? Most women (not all) ovaluate about 14 days after the first day of their period, so if your period started on June 9th then you may have been ovulating around the 23rd of June. If you use the "rhythm method" and do not want to become pregnant, it's best to not have unprotected sex 3 days before and after the day you think you were ovulating. For you that would mean June 20-26th. Good luck either way.

Since i went thru this for a year . . . here is what I know:
You say your period was on 6/9 - by counting that as day 1 you then had sex on the 29th which is 21 days into your cycle.
That is a bit far and your chances are low, but I am no doctor. It is too soon to tell, so wait it out and if your period doesn't come (assuming you are regular) then take a home PT.
If you are "trying", my specialist gave me a a good plan and it worked!
Sex on day 10 - 12 - 14 - 16
OR day 11 - 13 - 15
Best wishes!

Yes you could be pregnant as to every rule there is an exception.
However you tend to ovulate 14 days(approx) before you menstrate. for people who have a 28 day cycle this is simple to work our. For people who do not have a regular cycle this is much harder, In short the only way to know for sure is do a test!
By the above rule it is less likely. However as I did state there are always exceptions.
Oh and Sperm can survive for 3 days? (approx) so you can become pregnant by having unprotected sex 3 days before ovulation.
Remember please that most women do not infact ovulate 14 days AFTER their last period it is 14 days before their period, it is infact ovulation that triggers the hormones that starts menstration if you do not become pregnant.

The best way to get the best answer you're looking for is to go see a doctor and the best advice i can give to you is to please...pretty please..if ur not having sex with your husband...make that guy wear protection...because you can know someone forever and still not know them and just because you can't see it doesn't means it's not there

as long as you have sex, there is always a chance you can be pregnant weather your on your period or not, weather you use protection or not.
