If she had sex three or four days before her period was due, she's not pregnant from that encounter. It takes longer than 3 days for the sperm to fertilize the egg, for the egg to travel down, and for it to implant in her uterus. If you had sex a couple of weeks ago, that'd be a different story.

Her symptoms sound like pms symtoms, to be honest with you. But if her period does not come within the next few days, have her take a pregnancy test.

Good luck.
