Probably not terribly safe, if you're an average woman with average cycle length and average ovulation time. Using the calendard for this kind of analysis isn't so hot. If you want to consider emergency contraception ("morning after pill", which is good for up to 72 hours), please call 888 Not 2 Late for the nearest provider of that service, or call your gynecological health care provider. If you go to http://ec.princeton.edu/, you can read a great deal of information on emergency contraceptives.
