Honestly, no! Way to soon for that!

It's too early for her to be having symptoms of being pregnant, and it's quite unlikely that she would become pregnant on the birth control patch since the hormones in the patch pretty much guarantee that if she did get pregnant, the pregnancy would abort right away (that's how the pill and the patch work at such a high success rate). So, though condoms can fail, the patch isn't likely to.
Some women get some pulling feelings and pains that begin as early as three weeks, but most pregnancy symptoms don't begin until at least 6 or 9 weeks.

Honestly, I would try to relax. Although condoms may not prevent pregnancy100%, 1) you did wear a condom and 2) she's on the patch. It's highly unlikley. It would be a good thing to have her take a test though just to put your minds at ease. I'd wait adleast a week after her expected period and if it does'nt come, take a test.Hey, I would say the odds are in your favor for a negative test result! Good luck!

I wouldn't worry. Of course crazy, nearly impossible things can happen sometimes, but it sounds highly unlikely. Stress can throw your body, including your periods out of whack, so if she's stressing at all about it, that's probably the root cause of the tummy aches. Try to keep her calm so her body stays on track, things should be fine!

As long as the condom didnt break, no. And she could just be having cramps or be a little sick. No worries, just continue to be safe during sex. :-)

Contraception is never 100% reliable, but since you both took precautions you shouldn't be too worried. Maybe she's just ill and it's a coincidence.

Have her take a home pregnancy test. I do not think she would be showing signs of pregnancy after just one week though. I really do not think that you have anything to be woriied about. Better safe then sorry though!

her symptoms could be due to many things. she should take a home pregnancy test the day she's supposed to get her period and you'll know then. until then, you should hope for the best and try not to worry.

even if she were pg she wouldn't feel anything yet. it could be a urinary tract infection. don't panic.tell her to see a dr if it doesn't get better in a couple days.
