i'm 17 and i'm really worried that i could be pregant.
i've been with my boyfriend for 6 months, we waited 4 months before having sex. we've always used a condom while having sex. but one of the last times we had sex, the condom fell off. we didnt realize it for a while...
i didnt think much of it, untill my period was late. but four days after it was due, i got what i took to be my period. a few weeks later thinking about it, i realized it hadnt been my normal cycle.
I usually have a 7 - 8 day cycle. 1 day of heavy cramps. 2 days of heavy bleeding. 1 day of light bleeding. 2 days of nothing. 2 days of light bleeding.
The "period" I got was 3 total days over 7 days. 1 day of medium/light bleeding, 4 days of nothing at all, 1 1/2 day of light bleeding, but it was a darker and not at all like menstration blood?
i think i'm somewhere between 6 and 7 weeks along.
my breasts are insanely sore and my bras no longer fit. i've had to loosen the straps on every single one of them. i also feel incredibly sick & dizzy first thing in the morning & at random times during the day.
i have to pee every hour and a half to two hours.
i've always had mood swings, but never to the extent they are now. i get angry at my boyfriend very easily, which never happens. he's the one person i can never stay angry with. by the middle of the day i need to sit down. i come home from school and take a 2-4hour nap and i'm in bed by midnight every night.
i'm the kind of person that can go to bed at 4 in the morning, to get up at 8:30 and pull a 14 hour shift on my feet all day at work and then go out partying with friends. sleeping this much and always being tired is strange to me.
i'm craving salt and bread. i cant stand fruit juice or garlic(garlic&onions having always been used in my family. i love them both. and to feel the need to be sick when i smell garlic is weird)
i'm a pale girl(yay Irish/Scottish blood!) and i've noticed lately that i always have this pink tinge on my cheeks(i do not wear blush/cover-up/concealer/foundation... mascara is my only makeup) even in the morning when i first wake up. it kind of looks like i have a tiny fever.
i'll be walking down the hallway at school, and i'll be covering my stomach. if i'm watching my friends be stupid with a ball or something that can be kicked/thrown, i turn myself into my boyfriend and use him as a sheild so my stomach wont be hit?
i dont feel any differnt then i have before. but i'm still concerned. my friend is suggesting i feel sick cause of the flu. that my period is now late for a second month in a row, because i'm stressed.
those reasons just dont make sense to me... with everything else.
if annnnyone can help, PLEASE help
i'd appreciate it SO much
