Do not know what to do

So I bought the first response pregnancy tests that tell you if you're pregnant as early as 6 days before your expected period. I had unprotected sex last night but we used the withdrawal method. I am supposed to get my period on Wednesday. I don't know if I should take the pregnancy test today since I'm supposed to get my period wednesday or if I should wait to see if I get my period or not. I would personally prefer to take prefer to take pregnancy test today so I won't keep stressing about it,but I don't know how accurate it will be since I had sex last night, and since I will my expected period start date is this Wednesday.

It will not be accurate this early.  From the time of ovulation until implantation is about 7 days.  If you had intercourse around the time of ovulation then 6 days before your missed period would be accurate.

Do you mean this Wednesday, as in the day after tomorrow?  I would wait.  Two days is not much time to wait.  Besides, if you only had sex last night and not earlier, and your period is due in two days, you probably aren't pregnant (wrong time for ovulation) so it would be a waste of  a test.
