Scared of pregnancy.

(TL;DR: 18yr old had unprotected sex 2 days into ovulation cycle, 3 days before peak window, waited too long to take Plan B. No ejaculation, though worried about pre-ejaculation).

Hey, I'm a 18F, and I'm really scared. I haven't come to Reddit for things like this in a while, so I know it's serious.

My biggest fear is getting pregnant, and I carelessly had unprotected sex while ovulating. I have a period tracker, and I often forget I have it unless it's to track my period or for when I remember I have it. When I was making plans with my man, I didn't think to check my app, which I deeply regret. After he and I had sex, I went to log that we had unprotected sex, and I saw that I was actually ovulating.

For some dumb reason, I wasn't as concerned as I am now, but I kept thinking back, and it eventually made me curious about possible pregnancy. Today, I got to thinking about it again, and I started gathering the data I'd need to get it as accurate as possible, and I then put what I had constructed into Google, which led me to an answer that said I was at moderate risk for pregnancy. Unfortunately, Google said the best thing was to wait until my period came, and if I was a week late to take a test. I also learned that I waited too long to use a Plan B because I wasn't as worried as I am now. (I'm nauseous at myself 😣)

I really wish I was more careful, but this is a learning point for me. Frankly, this wasn't my first time being scared of pregnancy. A certain situation went down where I was ovulating, but we were both pent-up, so we only had protected sex, but even then, I was still very wary about the integrity of the condom. Unfortunately, my first time having intercourse was also somewhat scary because I had the condom break on me! However, that was due to them being in a glove box for a few weeks while spring was approaching.. 😥

As I've written this out, I feel calmer now and letting God guide me through this the way he wants it to. Please start hoping for no pregnancy. I shall update this post accordingly.
