Q: Pregnancy
asked by: sbvic03 on October 7th, 2003

I recently had a sample of what sex was and my boyfriend and I didn't have a condom with us so we used a plastic wrap and took it easy. I didn't last long because the sudden thought of pregnancy came to my head. I know it was stupid to have use that but i'm worried. He didn't go (if you know what I mean), and I tested the wrap at least 5 times to see if there was any holes (which there wasn't) but i'm still worried. I'm not ready to have a child and don't want one now.... I need help!!!! Sad

As i've said before the first rule of thumb is to not freak out until you've missed a period. If you do so before hand, it will cause your period to be late. That's how strong our mind is. It's definately not effective at all to use plastic wrap, so definately buy condoms. Buy them now so that you'll be adequately prepared for next time. If you plan on being sexually active, you should plan to be on birth control too. You can get this from your local health department or planned parenthood without your parents having any knowledge of it.

You are definately at risk because precum can get you pregnant. I'm not really sure how effective plastic wrap would have been at keeping that out. But I don't think you should worry until you miss a period.

Let us know

Guys definately freak out about stuff like this. For right now, just assume you're not pregnant. Then if you miss a period, go take a test. Glad to be of assistance!!!!
Good luck

Don't
Use plastic wrap again...It's stupid and not sanitary and won't protect against std's or preg. Be smart and use a condum and if you don't have one wait until you do.

Good luck,
