You wouldnt have big sore breasts and feel sick a week into pregnancy. You are not pregnant.

***edit***

mod note: no one can say yes or no for definate - we can only give our opinions on the situation

It could be pms and because you had sex, your mind is making your pms symptoms (which can be identical to pregnancy symptoms!) into pregnancy symtoms. This is normal and probably causing you a lot of anxiety, which makes you think more about your symptoms, which causes more anxiety.

It the condom was used properly and there were no holes in it, you are not pregnant.

If you are late for your period in a week, go get a pregnancy test.

Most women do not get pregnancy symptoms in the span of a week. Some do but it isn't the usual way things work. Most women don't get symptoms until their period is due or they have missed their period.

Good luck!

Let's just remember ladies to give sensible opinions not definite diagnosis.

No one can say yes you are or no you aren't pregnant hon.
Just chill out until your period is due, then if it doesn't show up take a test to see.

(i am in no way being rude to you kia so don't take it like that) but if they ask a stupid question,they should get a stupid answer.If we can't say yes or no,why even ask?You had sex,yes you could be pregnant!
