Hi I had unprotected sex a few times on the day I was ovulating. He didn't come in me but he did come each time before we had sex, this was about 3 weeks ago. What are the chances I am pregnant from this? How long should I wait to take a pregnancy test? I am due for my period in 2 days. If I am pregnant when will I start to notice symptoms and what are usually the first ones? (besides a missed period)

ANY time there is penile insertion there is the risk of pregnancy. You can reduce the risk but not eliminate it.

Each woman is different as to how they react so you may show no symptoms at all. The best time to take a test is about 2 weeks after you miss your period.

The first sign is a missed period, all of the others don't normally come till 2nd or even 3rd month.

You have to miss the period, ( entire time for period) and test the next week, so about 10 days from missing the period. It has to be the first urine of the morning as soon as you wake up.
