From Wikipedia:
Superfetation (also spelt superfoetation, based on a false etymology — see fetus) is the formation of a fetus while another fetus is already present in the uterus. When there are two separate instances of fertilisation during the same cycle, rather than different cycles, it is known as superfecundation.
Superfetation is claimed to be common in some species of animals, but is extremely rare in humans. It can occur only where there are two uteri, or where the menstrual cycle continues through pregnancy.
In humans
Reports of superfetation occurring long after the first impregnation have often been treated with suspicion and some have been clearly discredited. Other explanations have been given (and demonstrated) for different levels of development between twins. Artificially induced superfetation has, however, been demonstrated although only up to a short period after insemination.
I have unprotected sex with my husband all the time and did with my previous pregnancy as well and I'm sure there are plenty of other women who have as well and none of them have double pregnancies. IF it were even likely I think you would hear of instances more often.

Brittany I had to get in on this, I agree with some of the people on here and for the others who are being rude to you shame on them, we are here to help and support not to tare
down a person for any reason at all. First of all I am proud of you for opting to keep this child instead of abortion. However it is time for you to step up and take responsibility for
you and the baby, if you for one second think that you are not ready by anymeans do what is right not only for you but for your child there are programs out there that lets you
choose the family that you want to raise your baby. If you think that you can give this child the love and attention that he/she deserves by allmeans you do that. It is going to be a
long tough road but not because your young but because motherhood is not always the easiest thing at all. I had no choice of raising a child that was not mine, I was 12 years old
and my sister wasnt ready to be a mother she is 5 years older than me the same age as you are now, but I was the one who took care of my niece and I was much younger I am
now 22 and expecting one of my own my DH and I have had 2 prior m/c this year and this one has been the strong one and made it past that bump that the others couldnt.
Age isnt everything it is the mind set of the person, you can do this if that is what you want to do. Just please start acting more responsible for yourself and for your
unborn child. As far as getting pregnant while already pregnant, it is a very rare accasion it is possible if you are in the 3% of women who can actually accomplish this. As far
as ovulating of course the majority of women do not ovulate while pregnant just that 3% of women do. The best thing that I can tell you is do a lot of research for yourself, search
your heart and do what is best for you and your unborn child. One of my good friends was 16 when she had her first child and was married shortly after they found out, but they
didnt get married because they were pregnant they just moved up the wedding date they were already getting married. They have been married for 12 years now and have two
children now a boy and a girl, so like I said it is the mind set of the person. There are also programs to help young mothers learn how to take care of themselves and how to be
responsible for another life please look into one of those they are very informational and very helpful. They do continue helping you until you feel like you can accomplish everything
on your own I know of some who stay with these programs until 21 and some of the girls in there are as young as 13. Please get some help from others who are in your shoes
and have been in your shoes. Dont let anyone make you feel bad about yourself for having a child bottom line is you have stepped up and have taken the responsibility for your
actions and not taking the coward way out. Just now fully understand the responsibilites that lay ahead for you and if you need any further help or just need a person to talk to
that wont judge you, you can pm me and I will help as best to my abilities and I will just be an extra pair of ears to listen.
