Hi there, I have understood your concern. I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

1 ) First of all do not panic.

2 ) If you have history of regular cycles and also there is history of unprotected sex act in the fertile period of cycle , means between day 10 to 20 of the cycle, then you stand chance to get pregnant.

3 ) If you happen to cross your dates, then please get morning's first sample of urine tested for pregnancy. In case of doubt blood beta HCG test and USG will be of help.

Once you get any of the tests positive for pregnancy, then your symptoms can be related to pregnancy.

4 ) It is ok to have small frequent meals, and feeling sleepy in the initial days of pregnancy.

I'd you are planning for pregnancy, then I will suggest you to opt for a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen. Include more portions of fruits, salads and vegetables in daily diet. Drink plenty of water. Avoid deep fried foods, bakery products and refined sugars. Avoid substance abuse if any. Start on Folic acid, Vitamin B 12 and Omega 3 supplements on daily basis at least 3 months before you plan to get pregnant. This helps to prevent many problems during pregnancy and delivery.

I hope this answer helps you. Thanks.
