Q: Wondering

I'm new here, I basically just joined so I could get some advice on what some of you think. Me and my boyfriend have been together for awhile, and for the past month or so, we've had sex just about every night, using protection....I'm suppose to be on b/c but I havent taken it since we've been dating. Rolling Eyes and also awhile ago we didnt use protection for the full time, he did put a condom on almost right before he ejaculated... For the past week, i've been experiencing really bad cramps ( not normal to what I get before my period), my lil pee visits to the bathroom are more frequent then usuall as well.. I'm also experiencing moodiness and more tired then usuall..... My period is a week away........ Should I take a test.. Or what.... Someone got any advice???

The test won't be accurate unless you take after your already due for your period so wait until then.

Your frequent pee visits only get more frequent when you are more months into a pregnancy because the baby is taking up more room. The cramps most likely are a sign your period is coming. If a week after you are due, and do not get your period then take a test. That is when you will know. Please be more responsible with the condoms and b/c. Its alot easier than having to raise a baby. Good luck! Also make sure you talk to your boyfriend about what would he do if you ever got pregnant. You need to know ahead of time so hes not only thinking about sex and leaving you to be a single mother anytime soon.

Possible Infection?????
A pregnancy test will not be accurate unless it is taken after you miss your period. It may be possible that you have some type of infection like uti kidney or bladder. There may be no recognizable symptoms except cramping. You should always pee after having intercourse. Check to see if your urine is more dark or cloudy than usual. On the other hand, you may be having pms. Sad still, it is possible that you are pregnant. If you miss your period, you should take a test. Either way, be careful. I know it is hard, I have two babies! Make sure that you and your man are prepared for the consequences before having unprotected sex. Good luck!

I would say this is to soon to be experiencing some possible signs such as frequent urination, because when this does happen its usually a little later in pregnancy due to the growth of the baby pushing against your bladder. Sometimes you can think your pregnant so much you begin to "feel" preggy. I would suggest waiting a week or so until after you period is due that should leave you with an accurate reading. Also I dont mean to be nosey but if your supposed to be on the pill why are you not taking it? Does your b/f know about it? Next time you decide to have unprotected sex you might want to let him know if he dosent, because that is pretty unfair if he is trusting you to be responsible and take your pill. I'm not trying to be mean or place my opinion on you or anything like that I was just wondering.

Best of luck

Sweetie,
like they all said. A little more time is necessary for accurate readings. Please, please use protection next time ok.
