Q: Afraid to Hear Imput But Need It. I Think I May Be Pregnant

Hi everybody,

what I am really seeking is comfort and in a way I am scared to post coz I am afraid I will not hear what I want to hear.

For starters, I am 16 years old. I had sex november 13th and we used a condom. Not to insult him or anything but he was only in me for literaly maybe half a minute... A minute at very most.... And I mean very. (i also got my period the next day if that would effect anything..)
he said that he pulled out as soon as he felt like he was going to cum and he said that he is pretty sure he was sucessful in doing that... If not, that only the very tip of him was in me when he started too but he was out before he finished.

I know that would mean the chances are fairly low.

About maybe a week later I started to not feel well. I was feeling nausea periodicaly during the day and my stomach was a little off... (pressure in the bottom of my stomach, light pains like gas or cramps near my hips, and some aching under my ribs....Etc...)
at first I thought maybe it was just a virus or something. I have not actually gotten sick at all though and my appetite has since decreased... Alot. I am barely ever hungry and these symptoms are still a problem now. The nausea is not as frequent as it was but I still feel sick and like I said, barely any appetite what so ever.

I know people will tell me to take a home pregnancy test the day after I was suppose to get my period if I do not get it. (i am due to get it december 11th) but it is tough coz I have not told my mom that I think I may be incase I am not coz I do not want her to know I am sexually active and so it would be tough for me to get one. Also, I am nervous about the results and I hear they can be inaccurate.

I am sooooo nervous and I am stressing over this like crazy.... Do you think I am pregnant?

First of all, calm down. Ur stress could be causing this. It's not uncommon to get symptoms like that from stress. However if ur still thinking u might be pregnant wait until u miss ur period. Then buy a hpt or go see ur doctor to get tested. Good luck hun, keep us posted. I hope everything works out. Personally, I think ur chances are quite low that u are pregnant.

Thank you. I know I need to calm down, I do have a habit of stressing alot. Its just that all these symptoms started before I started to stress so I don't think its from the stress. I don't know...

I mean, I have randomly felt sick before but not like this and loosing my appetite is uncommon for me coz I usualy eat alot. Plus, my stomach...The feeling is just...Weird and different at times. All these symptoms together for this long and coincidentally (however you spell it) at this time is freaking me out.

I know the chances should be low but its just a weird coincidence and I am very scared coz the sickness is not easing much.

Even if I do get my period I am gonna still worry though coz someone told me today you cna have it for up to 2 months into your pregnancy... I can't win. Sad

Go get checked out by ur doctor. That's the only other advice I can think to give u right now... Personally, i'm still waiting to find out, and u don't need to be waiting and worrying like I have been.Get an appointment with ur doctor soon it will make u feel better. And be sure to ask for a blood test. When are u due for ur period?

I am due next week on the.... December 11th.

I would make a doctors appointment but like I said, my mom doesn't know and I don't drive or anything so its not like I can scheduel my own... I would need to depend on her. Plus she is in the process of switching my doctor to a different one. I have a regular physical exam coming up sometime in january but I don't want to wait that long. Not to mention that the doctor is a friend of the family so I am bit unsure about trusting them to keep their mouth shut if I say anything....

I am sorry if I am being too negative. I really do appreciate your input. Thank you. Its just coz I am stressing.

Don't worry about being negative hun, I know how stressed u must be feeling. Well, if u can't get ur mom to take u and u don't think u can trust the doctor, do u have any friends who can drive, or any other way to get to a doctor? If u do, u could try a walk in clinic, they can give u a test there. There must be some way u can get to a doctor... Or tell ur mom ur not feeling well and want to see a doctor. She doesn't need to know that u think ur pregnant.

Yeah thats true. I just know how she is.. If she thinks I am sick she'll be flipping out and want to be in the doctors room with me coz shes one of those manic germ people. She automatically gets all paranoid. I suppose I could try though, if I get up the guts to do it.

So, if I were to get a blood test before I am even due for my period, they can find out if I am pregnant? I don't have to wait like I would with a hpt?

Well I don't know how soon u can get a blood test, but maybe u should just take one of those first response hpts...They work 5 days before ur period is due. If u have the money for that u could try it. And u'd have to ask ur doctor how soon blood tests will work. It might work now, u never know...

Yeah, would the tests themselves cost extra money or would they just be part of the co-pay thing you have to pay to cover the visit? Do you know?
And also, would the tests ever show up anywhere on like a bill or something that my mom would see or would it be completely confidential? I am not sure if you know the answer to these things but I figure its worth a try to ask.

I don't know if they cost more. U could ask them when u get there. And i'm pretty sure it's confidential.... U can make sure of that when u talk to someone there.

Ok, thank you for your help and input.

I really hope your right and I am not pregnant.

Technically I shouldn't be... I am just hoping I am not and that I find out for sure sometime really soon.

Pooma,

we definatly have to keep in touch so we can keep each other updated.

Its nice to here that you know more or less exactly what I am going through. How old are you?

*crossing fingers*
hopefully, we'll both end up with what we want. Doesn't it suck feeling sick all the time? Sad

Yeah... Nausea has actually stopped for me now, just a slight upset stomach and the weird pressure thing. I'm 17, and ironically a virgin... My worries come from possible sperm on the hand. There's little chance, but i'm still worried.

Wait~didn't you say you started your period the next day?? Well if that's the case, then the chances of pregnancy are low~however there are always the exceptions!!!! I could be too early to have alot of those symptoms as well, but every girl is different. Do you have a local drugstore nearby?? You could always walk, or have your mom drop you off at the mall and look around there for hpt's! Any friends that drive?! There's got to be a way for you to get a hold of one of those without the momma knowing!! Good luck, and be more careful next time!! Let us know what happens!!

Well pooma, I really hope things work out for you too.
Keep me posted. Hoping for next week!

Bluebubble888,

at first my boyfriend and I were thinking the same thing...Since I got my period the next morning that my chances of being pregnant would be even lower coz more than likely the egg was already on its way out when we had sex... But then when I started to get these weird symptoms I doubted our thought on that.

So, is that true though? (our theory...) would that make my chances even lower? I sure hope so. When I got your message it was certainly a comforting thought that someone else thought the same thing .

Anyone else have any imput on that?
I know there are alot of rumors about when is the best time to have sex, and when your chances are the lowest and stuff and I just want multiple opinions on that to make sure its not one of them...

Thanks everybody. Keep me posted... Your all sort of my comfort at the moment. Smile

Nothing is 100%........Using birth control, condoms, and having sex on or right before your period can all lead to an unplanned pregnancy......The most you can do is wait and test!! Wink
