Who is the dad
Hello, I need clarification. I got my period on August 1,2021. I had sex with guy #1 on August 2 and 3 no cum. I had sex with second guy on August 7,2021 and August 13. Could guy#2 be the dad?

Sure.
In general, having sex on day 2 or 3 of your period (I assume you were even still bleeding, if your period arrived on August 1) is too early to produce a pregnancy because you wouldn't be ovulating yet. Sperm can live in your system about 4-6 days, but you would still have to ovulate awfully early compared to when your period came for even August 3 to give you a pregnancy. Sometimes a woman can ovulate on day 8 of her menstrual month (using a count beginning on the first day of her last period), but it's not that common.
The August 7 or August 13 sex is much more likely to have produced the pregnancy.
When did you find out you were pregnant, and was it by a home test?

Thank you! I found out August 30 and September 2nd I got blood drawn and my hcg levels were 189 which indicate I was really early in my pregnancy.
Because of all you have said, especially the fact that you were still on your period when you had sex with the first guy, it seems most likely that the second guy is the dad.
