)Well I messed up again, my stupidity has got the best of me. However I will not fuss and detail my problem, but instead try to help those who are in a similar case scenario. I'm in sort of a scare right now, but i'm not going to let it get the best of me just yet. I did take note and search around, bringing up Ulfwald's (here) and NotFred's scare also (here) .
Well for you guys out there who might have future 'scares', or maybe even some hopes?
Here are some tell tale signs that you should watch for if your wife / girlfriend / or just some girl should be concerned with.
Always be sure to protect yourself, you may never know what may happen.

Missed PeriodsLight bleeding, like a period, can still happen during the early weeks of pregnancy, usually just once or twice, but even, rarely, through the whole pregnancy. Apart from pregnancy, missed periods (amenorrhoea) can also be due to emotional upset, illness, severe weight loss, over-exercising, anxiety about getting pregnant, approaching the menopause and coming off the Pill.
Breasts They may feel different immediately or not for three months, but at some point they will begin to feel heavier, fuller, and to ache or tingle.
Sickness This is very common in the first three months of pregnancy, sometimes first thing in the morning, but it can also happen at other times in the day. Some very unlucky women feel sick all the way through pregnancy.(related topics)
Urinating It is very common to have to pass water more often in the first three months of pregnancy, which often means getting up in the night too. This usually wears off slightly in the middle months and returns at the end when the baby is bigger and physically squashing the bladder.
Tiredness This can be noticeable in the first three months, but usually lifts in the middle months to return again when you are large and the baby has become heavy towards the end of pregnancy. Very early on you can often feel heaviness in the lower abdomen.
TESTS
All pregnant women start to produce a special hormone called human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) within two days of the fertilised egg becoming embedded in the wall of the uterus. Pregnancy tests look for hCG in blood or urine. The most easily available and usual form of testing can be done within a day or so of missing a period by testing a sample of urine collected first thing in the morning. Wrong results do happen ? false negatives are commoner than false positives, usually the result of doing the test too early before levels of hCG are high enough. Traces of detergent or something else in the container you use can also cause a false negative. False positives are rare but can occur because if you test around ovulation or approaching the menopause, another hormone, luteinising hormone (LH), may be present. A recent pregnancy or miscarriage you are unaware of might cause traces of hCG to be present. Fertility drugs, some tranquillisers and antihistamines can also affect the reading.

Also here are some funnier tell-tale signs to lighten the mood if you need it
