Hallow Dear,

It is not the time required for the intercourse that is important; if you have ejaculated inside her vagina, she can be pregnant.

If the pregnancy is of 5 months duration, the uterus would have grown upto her belly button. Such big uterus is very obvious to the sight also. Moreover, by palpating from the abdomen, the parts of the baby also can be felt. No tests are required to diagnose such an advanced pregnancy.

If you are doubting your paternity, you may try to tally the real duration of pregnancy with the time of your intercourse. Further more, baby's DNA test can assess the paternity.

Please do not panic and handle the situation scientifically. For more detailed guidance, you may ask me Direct question.
