Some women (me included) have what is
called a floating ovulation & so we
can ovulate at any time of the month,
others ovulate at the same time each month
but that may not be mid cycle as it is for
most women.
So if you either have a floating ovulation
or ovulate at the time of month when you
happened to have unprotected sex, then
yes, you can get pregnant.

How do you know when your body is ready to
get pregnant?

I'm not sure exactly what you mean by when
your body is ready.
If you have had a miscarriage, major
surgery of any type, suffered trauma then
it's best to give your body time to heal,
6 to 12 months in general.
On the other hand if you mean how do you
know when it's "the right time" in your
life to fall pregnant; there's no easy
answer to that, sometimes we just fal
pregnant & have to "deal", other times
we compromise because our partner id older
& doesn't want to be too old to enjoy
the kids, other times we want but don't
get pregnant.
In general though, try to give your body
time to heal from any ill-health or
trauma, try & take folic acid &
calcium (both needed by the baby & you
during pregnancy, the folic acid/folate is
especially important in the first weeks of
the pregnancy) & try to be as healthy
(without becoming a health freak!!) as
reasonable.
Also if you're in a relationship (as
opposed to choosing to go it alone) you
really should talk to the father to be
about what he wants & when.
All that should help your body be ready
for what's about to hit it!!
