My girlfriend of two years recently moved in with me. Not to give you her life story, but she's had a rough life and my parents offered to let her come stay with us until she and I graduate from high school.
Tonight, we were fooling around a bit in bed. No intercourse whatsoever, but she did masturbate me and I did orgasm. I wiped up the semen and went to clean my hands off. I used soap thoroughly, but forgot to use water. Then I came back and rubbed around her vulva, but did not insert my fingers in her, for a little bit. Only after we stopped did it hit me, "Oh my God, I just did something really stupid."
She's not very stressed, but I'm very panicky about things and I'm very worried that something bad (pregnancy - at least for us, it would be bad. Very bad) might come of this.
I read through the pregnancy guide on Scarleteen and the odds of her becoming pregnant are incredibly small as best I can tell. Still, some reassurance and advice would be nice. Should we look at emergency contraceptives? I feel like I should at least talk to my mother about this. She offered my girlfriend birth control for when we felt like we were ready to have sex, but we didn't take her up on it because we didn't feel like we were ready to actually have sex yet.
So right now, I basically feel like an idiot who's let my girlfriend down. Any thoughts? Apologies if this isn't the appropriate forum.

I am unclear on how you cleaned your hands. Did you use some sort of hand sanitizer? If so, you have no risk of pregnancy and do not need to use emergency contraception.
In the future, using gloves for manual sex makes it easier to keep fluids where you want them. It might also be a good idea to keep a few condoms and some lube on hand as well. Sometimes it's easier to get carried away than we'd like it to be so why not be prepared?
By the way, your mom sounds pretty cool.
