How early can I confirm if I am pregnant? In other words, when is the best time to take a pregnancy test? Also, are there any specific early pregnancy symptoms I should look out for?

You can take a urine test on the first day of your missed period. If you want to check earlier, a blood test (Beta hCG) can confirm pregnancy about 10 to 12 days after sex. Early signs include a missed period, tiredness, mild cramps, or breast pain. But not everyone gets symptoms right away, so testing is the best way to know.
