I had my period on the 19th of Oct. then i
had sex on the 26th. The past 2 days my
stomach feels like its score or like in
knots. I am under a lot of stress due to
school and then also thinking about being
pregnant and that stresses me out even
more. I just wanted to see what you
thought.

All the somatic symptoms you mention are
very subjective and can’t be secure
signs of early pregnancy. There is one
simple (but very sure) method to check if
you are pregnant or not. That is the
urine-based HPT pregnancy test. You can
use a HOME pregnancy test that uses urine
for confirming or excluding pregnancy. You
can take a home pregnancy test if your
next period is late. Pregnancy tests are
usually performed when the period is late.
HPT pregnancy tests are effective when
performed up to 5 days before your next
period comes.
