Brief Answer:
The possibility is very remote.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.
I have gone through your history and understand your concerns.

The chances of pregnancy with your ex is very less because that month you had regular cycle and your delivery date is also not matching with the same.

Tell me your last menstrual period date and when you had interaction with your boyfriend?

Hope to hear from you soon.
Good luck.
Regards
