Hey, im 15, and although illeagal me and my boyfriend have been having sex. A couple of times, we have been really horny but havnt had protection with us, but we had sex anyway. I havnt missed a period yet, but ive had thicker discharge, and ive been feeling sick in the mornings, also ive noticed that my stomach has been looking a little bigger down low, and I remember from when my auntie was in the early stages of pregnancy she had this too and she told me it was because of the fluid. Im really worried, cause I dont want to have a baby at this early stage of life. But I dont think I cope cope with the procedure of an abortion. Also I know that my boyfriend doesnt want to have a baby yet. Although we want to have children in the future. I know ive been stupid so please dont tell me that. Just I dont know what to do. And im worried that if I do miss a period, it means im going to have to tell my parents and I know that they will be really angry especailly my dad (who hits me sometimes) and I dont want to have to go through an abortion eeek please help!!!!

The only thing you an do right now is wait to see if you miss a period and if you do, then take a home pregnancy test.

My understanding is that the home pregnancy tests now do not require you to wait until you miss your period. Check the labels... I believe you may be able to take a home pregnancy test now. Also, "morning sickness" can show the same symptoms as the flu. There are other possible explanations for what is happening to you. On the otherside... If you went to the hospital with your symptoms, the very first thing that they would do is give you a pregnancy test.

Good luck

Ok don't panic - everyone's done stupid things at some point in their lives so you're not alone! Wink

it could well be that you're stressing over the idea of being pregnant and that is what is making you have 'symptoms'. It's easy to think every little twinge is pregnancy related if it's on your mind. Best thing to do is take a test if your period doesn't come when expected and if it is positive then you will really have to think hard about what you're going to do. None of your options will be an easy one. If it is negative then you really need to get yourself down to your doc's and get some contraception sorted out. Don't just rely on condoms because it is so easy not to bother.

When I was a bit older than you, I had the .Implanon implant in my arm which lasts for 3 years. It worked well for me, although it did give me rather more frequent periods than i'd have liked! I'm just wondering if that or the .Depo .Provera injection might be good ideas for you because you might forget to take the pill.

Anyway, try not to panic right now, just don't have any more unprotected sex and wait until your period is due.

Best of luck!

I agree with the others, take a test but don't panic!
See if you can find a local sexual health clinic and they will do it for free (plus you can talk about getting the pill etc... So you don't go through this again)

dont have sex~!!!!!
if u dont have protection use common sense and dont have sex! ur 15 be a teenager not a mom but if u are pregnant then grow up and take responsibility for your baby you will be a mom if so. and u wont get much sleep at all for first 2 months of baby's life; going to school on little energy and sleep wont be fun im sure. getting up every 2 -3 hrs at night to feed/change baby is tiring.

i have 2 kids who are under 1 1/2 yr old and it is tiring but i love my kids! im married and am 22
