First off, I know it was stupid to do this so please don't bash me. Last Thursday my boyfriend and I were fooling around in his car after class, and we started to have unprotected sex. I had started my last period on October 18th and it lasted 5-6 days. well, he miss judged his timing by a little bit and ejaculated a little bit on the outside, if not a little bit on the inside of me, he was able to block the rest of the flow till I moved into the other seat. I cleaned what was there then we proceeded on a mad hunt for Plan B. I did take the pill around 3hrs after said ejaculation, and my periods for the most part are regular plus or minus a day or two. What I want to know is there a chance that I can get pregnant? It's constantly eating at me and I just need some reassurance because it would be hard for me to take care a child at this point in time.

You have a chance of getting pregnant any time you have sex. Nothing is 100% effective at preventing pregnancy except for abstinence.
Plan B offers you some protection but not nearly as much as most hormonal birth control methods can offer you when they're used correctly. Plan B is only about 85% effective when used correctly, whereas many hormonal methods are around 99% effective when used correctly.
So all you can really do right now is wait and hope. Take a pregnancy test if your period is late. If you get a negative result but still do not have a period a week later, test again to make sure. Don't pay much attention to any symptoms you might be having because the symptoms of early pregnancy are the same as the symptoms for many other things. And you can actually trick yourself into feeling all the symptoms of early pregnancy if you're hoping for a pregnancy or fearing a pregnancy. Get birth control before having sex again. Condoms in addition to a hormonal method would be ideal. If you find out that you are pregnant right now, it doesn't necessarily mean you have to raise a child right now. Adoption and abortion are both still options that you could look into.
