Ok so I had unprotected sex on August 3rd.A couple of days ago I started getting horrible cramping feelings in my lower abdomen followed by a slew of other symptoms which when I looked them up seemed to fit early pregnancy symptoms.Everyone is telling me it's way to early to tell but my mom says like her pregnancy's my body might just know in its own way.Also everyone's saying it's pre menstrual symptoms but none of the things that are going on now ever happens before my menstrual cycle every month.Either way I need someone to help me with a couple questions because thus far I'm very confused lol.So first off I would like to know when exactly should I be looking for my missed period? I had sex on the 3rd an my period is due on the 16th so should I be expecting a menstrual this month or waiting for it not to show up next month.Also do I necessarily have to wait to miss my menstrual to take a pregnancy test? Someone please help me lol I'm 20 years old an never experienced any of these things so I'm just looking for someone to shed some light on the situation for me :)

Refer to your previous post were this has been answered: https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/pregna...nt-592037.html

Go to the dr and ask for a blood test. They do have test now that say you can find out before you miss your period however I don't know if they work. Blood test is the best way. Good luck!

@lostmommy thank you so much I will definitely look into both of those options
