If you have a normal 28 day cycle, you are most likely to become pregnant when you have unprotected intercourse approximately 2 weeks before you anticipate your period to start.
If you had unprotected sex the day before you certainly could have gotten pregnant. The 12 days before menstruation starts you would not get pregnant by having unprotected sex since ovulation is 14 days before and your fertile period is about 120 hours before and 24-48 hours after ovulation. Things are a bit different if your menstrual cycle is very short and your period extended.
