Yes, of course she can be pregnant! I'm sorry to be so blunt, but anytime you have unprotected sex, there is a risk of pregnancy. The more times you have unprotected sex ("the whole weekend"), the more likely a pregnancy is to occur. That is how pregnancy happens, right?!

Please know: it does not matter if you ejaculated "a whole lot" or not; there are millions of sperm in just a small amount of semen. Even if you did not ejaculate, you are still having unprotected sex---it is just called the "withdrawal method" and this is typically only 70% effective at preventing pregnancy (compared to 98% with condoms).

If it has been less than 120 hours since she had sex, she may consider using emergency contraception, because she does have a high risk of pregnancy. Having sex "all weekend" suggests a high frequency of sex, and the sooner she used emergency contraception, the higher the chances of it preventing an unwanted pregnancy.

If she is 17 years or older, she can go to any drug store (call the pharmacy first) and get emergency contraception without a prescription. You can also get it for her. Please do not delay!
