Be pragmatic: You are at very low risk, but nothing can settle a worrisome thought as much as a negative pregnancy test. You might wait until your cycle is due & do it on a first morning pee (more concentrated). If you miss your cycle you could do a couple spaced out over a few weeks since they can be negative very early in pregnancy.
