fingering & pregnancy risk (?)

[niny888]

So, on the 29th and 30th of this month,my boyfriend fingered me. It was not for more than 4 minutes but on the night of the 29th (after the first time he fingered me) he masturbated. I'm not sure if he washed his hands or what but then he fingered me again on the 30th. I'm worried if i'm pregnant or not because it's been 3 days after and I got sick on the first day. I had a headache,runny nose, and very very slight stomach pains. The second day I had a runny nose and a headache and more mild stomach pains. I don't know if this means that if i'm pregnant or not but i've been really worried these past few days. My period is supposed to come on the 15th of this month and I've been extremely worried. If it helps, this (the fingering) happened during the fertile window stage. I don't know if I'm sick because I may be pregnant or because of some other reason. Help!
