Brief Answer:
Pregnancy not possible on the day you had sex(provided periods were normal

Detailed Answer:
Hi Batchy 786,
Thanks for the query.I understand your concern.
You had first sex on 25th of February&got your period in time (29th of Feb.). that means you had sex just 5days before the periods...Let me tell you , there is least risk of pregnancy with sex 5days prior to menses, because ovulation(without which pregnancy is not possible) happens 14 days prior to expected date of periods, provided the menstruation is regular &normal..
.So you seem to have escaped the risk of pregnancy this time.
*The delay in periods can be due to psychological stress/physiological hormonal shuffle after first sex.
Please wait for periods till it's 8-10 days past period's expected date...you would get it till then.
If not... go for home pregnancy test to exclude pregnancy &getting rid of your stress. Consult a gynecologist for further assessment of test is -ve &still periods have not come.
Thanks.
