Hello Angelica,

It is not possible to get pregnant from sex a day before your periods. However the second episode of sex on 29th was in the fertile period and pregnancy is possible.
The days from 10-20 of a menstrual cycle are mostly fertile days when ovulation and pregnancy are more likely if sexual episode occurs. Rest of the days are less likely to be fertile as ovulation does not usually occur on these days. But it is advisable to use protection during every act as it is difficult to predict the exact days of ovulation.
If you suspect pregnancy get a urine pregnancy test done 3 weeks after 29th to rule out pregnancy.
Hope this satisfies your query.
Thanks for using HCM.
