Q: Pregnant Or Not ?????

I and my bf had unprotected sex since 8 days ago and we used the withdraw method. Afterwards I read that this method isn't that safe.Could I be pregnant or not ????? I'm totally confused now and can't stop thinking. My period is due on 28-29 september. Can I do a blood test now ? Is there anyone out there who knew whether she was pregnant or not before her period was due??? If yes, how many days before her period she knew? And what was the test she used? Please tell me what to do now, i'm under great panic and can't wait till my next period.Can anyone give me a help and tell me what to do?? I'm stressed out !

Pregnant Or Not ?
Yes it is possible to be pregnant after using the withdrawal method, you only need 1 drop of sperm to fertilize your egg. So just because you both think he pulled out in time does not mean that some of the sperm did not get inside of you. But don't panic just yet, you may not have had sex at the right time to get you pregnant. I always test for pregnancy with the chemist pregnancy kits which you can usually buy at your local supermarket or chemist, and sometimes they even come in packs of 2 just in case you would like to check again just to be sure. Do this first, if you get 2 positives then chances are you are pregnant, these tests are very reliable now days. If you think you have 2 positives then go to your doctor for a pregnancy confirmation, if you have an unwanted pregnancy then you need to start talking to your doctor and the father of the child about waht your options are. In the mean time, put yourself on the contreceptive pill, and use a condom aswell to protect yourself not only from an unwanted pregnancy but also all those natsy std's that go around.

Suzy said it all very well! All I have to add is please please please use protection because the withdraw method is not a form of birth control!!!!!! I cant say that enough! You should wait until your 3-4 late on your next period to take a pregnancy test though. Let us know how it goes though! Smile
