Q: Pregnancy symptoms so soon after sex ?
asked by: Anthony1 on April 16th, 2008

Im 14 and recently me and my girlfriend that have been going out for 3 months had sex together, and she thinks shes pregnant after the 2nd time of having SAFE sex.....I used a condom didnt check if it was bad after and now she said shes having the symptoms. She told her mom and is going to doctors.. But can they get symptoms after 4 days? Because I don't know if shes just imagining the symptoms. I'm to young to be a dad so I really hope shes not. What should I Do?!!!


Regards,

Anthony

No, most teen girls want to be pregnant. And since they want to be pregnant, it makes their minds believe they really are. You do not get pregnancy symptoms until [earliest] 3weeks. And thats just blue veins leading to your chest apparently.
She would not have symptoms this early.
She's putting them in her head.

I dont think she is pregnant. Some girls worry themselves alot after having sex.
I know i did when it was my first time.
But you used protection, if it broke or anything, i am pretty sure you would feel it.
Since you said her mom is taking her to the doctors, maybe she will get birth control.

Hi Anthony. Your girlfriend is NOT having pregnancy symptoms. In fact, the egg and sperm (if they have met) would not have even implanted on the uterus yet.

She is having what is called a 'hysterical pregnancy'. Where she convinces herself that she is pregnant and therefore feels all the symptoms, etc.

By the way, what are her symptoms? Usually the first one a teen girl will get is a missed period, followed by incredibly sore breasts.

It takes 10 to 14 days AFTER conception (egg and sperm meetting) before a pregnancy test will be positive. A doctor won't be able to tell anything at this point.

Wasn't her mom taking her to the doctor? Smile I'll bet she never told her mom and this is all some elaborate drama. Truly.

So she would have just gotten off her period when you had sex? She wouldn't have been ovulating yet.

She cannot have any symptoms of pregnancy since her body wouldn't even know she was pregnant at this point. It is just silly.

Rest. Relax. Breathe. She is freaking out and causing herself to think all kinds of things.

In 10 days, go to her house with a pregnancy test and sit with her while she takes it.

Have you explained to her that she would NOT have symptoms this early because the egg isn't even fertilized yet? She is giving herself the symptoms.
We have given you some advice, so you dont have to worry, she isn't pregnant, so get some sleep, and have some time to yourself. She's stressing you out for being completely stubborn.
Sometimes girls like to cause drama to make their life more intresting, or to get some attention.

Maybe her mom should take her to the doctor, so he can find out why she's having all these other phantom symptoms. And then get her on some birth control. My best guess is that she's just lying to freak you out and "trap you". It definitely wouldn't be the first time it happened to some poor guy.

You should try to nip this in the bud before it gets out of hand so explain this to her. She can choose if she still wants to go ahead with telling her doctor or waiting for a missed period. If she claims to miss a period, bring her a test and demand to see the results as soon as she's done. Don't let her screw you over. The chance of her being pregnant is so ridiculously low.

Why haven't you told her she would in NO WAY be experiencing pregnancy symptoms. It's IMPOSSIBLE. Her body wouldn't even know she if she were pregnant. If you explain this to her and she still keeps at it, I'd suggest finding a new girlfriend. This one may be a nut.

She doesn't want to talk about it on the phone incase her dad is listening because only her mom know's. We are going to hang tomorrow alone and talk.
