I'm worried about something that happened recently. There was just a tiny bit of precum on my finger, and I wiped it off quickly with a cloth. After a few minutes, I touched my girlfriend's vagina. I can't remember if I actually inserted my finger or not, but I'm pretty sure I didn't. Is there any chance she could become pregnant from this? We're both virgins, there was no penetration, and I didn't ejaculate. This happened on Tuesday, the 11th of September 2018, and her last period started on the 25th of August. Her cycle usually lasts 28 days. Can you please give me some advice? I'm really concerned.
