I'm fifteen years old, and i come from an
extremely mormon family. I've had sex with
my boyfriend for the past few weeks, and
we've been unprotected, although he did
pull out.

parents?

well of course you can get pregnant cause
you had unprotected sex.. but you might
not be pregnant because you said he had
pulled out right?? even though that method
does not really work... when is your
period due??? did you even miss a period??
stuff like that you have to ask your self
because when i found i was pregnant i was
15 i was shock cause i was so young and i
was thinking my 16 birthday is coming up
in like 3 weeks or so... but just take the
test and found out

Well don't jump to conclusions. If there
really aren't any signs you shouldn't say
anything. You're parents will possibly
lose respect in you. March yourself to a
store and buy a pregnancy test within the
next week, it should give you the right
results by now. IF you're pregnant then
we can discuss how to tell your 'rents.

Hi, I'm sixteen, and Mormon, but I'm not
pregnant. I don't even have a boyfriend.
However, just last night a young man in my
stake was married to his girlfriend (she
was pregnant). His family is very active
in the church, as is he. Now, I don't
know your family, but most LDS parents
that I've talked to have said that if
their child came to them telling them that
they were pregnant, or their girlfriend
was pregnant, they'd help them and
encourage them to seek help through their
bishop. But they wouldn't get angry.
They say there's no reason for that.
What's done is done, and there's nothing
you can do about that.
I don't know your parents, and I don't
know how active you are in the Church.
But I'd tell your parents. And I would
seek the Bishop's help if you're
comfortable with that. He'll keep
everything in confidence.
