Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
Yes pregnancy is possible despite taking postinor 2. Actually postinor 2 is an emergency contraceptive pill & prevents pregnancy by inhibiting implantation of fertilized egg on to uterus. An emergency contraceptive is not 100% effective, even if it is taken just 20 minutes later of sex. Therefore you could get pregnant with the person with whom you had sex around 20th feb & had taken postinor 2.You also had unprotected intercourse on 28th of feb. Therfore you could also get pregnancy with the guy with which you had sex on 28th also.
however chances of getting pregnancy on 20th feb is higher as normal period becomes distrupted after taking of postinor & ovulation chances are negligible upto next menstruation bleeding.

I would suggest you to undergo paternity test to confirm the father of your child.

Refer to your gynaecologist
Hope this information helps
