Q: I Think I Might Be Pregnant.

This is my first time posting, and I looked at many other posts for information but i'd like to ask some stuff myself.

I am 15 years old and I think I might be pregnant. I've had unprotected sex before, and the last time, my boyfriend pulled out too late, so came inside me. I got worried and took plan b, a morning after pill. Then I was really thinking about it and thought maybe I got pregnant from another time we had unprotected sex. Anyways, that's not the point.

Main reason for topic...I have some questions... (if you don't want to read all of this, then just read what's below)

1) what are the most early signs of pregnancy? I am really confused about this because most of them can be confused with menstrating symptoms. I am due for my period on the 4th, which is tomorrow. But then again, since I took the morning after pill, there's a chance it'll be a week before or after i'm supposed to get it. (obviously not before now...)
2) when I begin to bleed, how do I know if it's my period or if i'm bleeding cause the egg is moving? (or whatever the other reason is) sometimes I only get my period for 4 or 5 days.
3) can I get an abortion without my parents knowing? I am only 15. I don't care how much money it is and if I am pregnant, i'd get an abortion as soon as possible. I think my boyfriend's mom would be willing to come with me, if that helps.

This is all I can think of to ask for now. Please help me, someone. I usually never worry about anything, and I hate to have something serious to think about. Thank you...

***i saw other people get bashed for talking about abortions, and criticize me all you want but i've made up my mind. I never thought I might have to get an abortion and I already feel retarded enough for having unprotected sex. It's different when you're stuck in this position. Also, I already feel horrible enough. I don't even want to think about being pregnant, let alone killing a baby. I hate to think about all the people that would love a baby, and then me killing a perfectly perfect child from two disease-free people. Just wanted to run that by...

Thanks again...

First if you are pregnant you do have to have a perent go with you, not a boyfriends parent. Most of the early signs of being pregnant are the same as period symptoms. Except you wont have your period. There is no way to tell for sure except to get a pregnancy test done. Buy one, go to the doctor or even the school nurse.

I'm not exactly in the right frame of mind but i'm sane enough to know that you are not being rationale in making a decision if you are pregnant, find out first and then make your decision, I would imagine it would be differnt if you fount out you were capable of having a baby (adoption is awesom, i'mve living proof i'm alive!) then give it up for adoption that way you both have a chance at life its not easy but its a bit more fair, but find out first before you change your mimd as you may be panicking over nothing, but if you insist on an abortion than that is your choice and I will not judge you on it but pray that one day you will be pregnant by a man you love and wnat to give that child a life and chance

Well early signs are like said, like your common period coming. Early tiredness and extreme breast tenderness are most common. But those signs are easy to look up and find right here on the website. And u dont need a parent with you I dont think to get an abortion. You would have to call your doctor or hospital to ask about the nearest abortion center. Now, I am against abortion myself, but I wont lecture u on it because youve made your decisision and sometiems when your young thats what you think is best and I know its hard for you too, (its common to regret it tho) and it might be way harder on you then u imagine, and I hope if u are pregnant that u will always have protected sex knowing that abortion had follow the last time. . . Goodluck~

domicksmommy, im not being mean at all, but is there any way you could make the pic smaller or use a different one cuz the big one makes the whole post u post in become in long-hard to read columns.

Hey Their, Its Me, Babyp

Hi their all, as most of you know im preggo, with my baby girl jaylynn, but I have a few questions so if n e 1 can help it would be nice. Laughing

#1, how do you get the morning arter pill?
#2, im 14, I started having sex when I was 13, im not proud of it and im not ashamed of it, but what I dont get is im 14, and I got pregnant, and im taking responsibilty for my baby(even tho the daddy aint) so I dont understand how a lot of other teens say there "not ready for a baby" or how "their mom will kill them" etc, etc, the list of excuses go on......The thing I dont get is how can you be ready to have sex, but not be ready for what the result of haveing sex is??????? I dont get it?????? If you cant take responsibilty for your actions, then dont have sex!!!!! Grr, I have other questions, but I dont feel like askin.........

No you know what gets me, is when they dont learn. They have sex, get pregnant, have an abortion...Have sex, get pregannt, have an abortion. Over and over and over. I wish that if they didnt wanna do this, be a parent, that they would at least learn to wrap it up!!

Yes, dont use the pullout method condoms are easy to figure out but about the morning after pill i'm not sure how old you have to be in your state to go to a local clinic without parents but you can get it there and you have 72 hours to use it

Active User, very eHealthy

Before you decide, find out if you're pregnant first. And if abortion is still on your mind..Wait awhile before you get it done. In the meantime come here and chat with the girls who are pregnant. They might not change your mind but they'll make you see pregnancy in a whole different way..A good way. It may influence your decision..But it may not.
Good luck with everything

I know what I did, and I know that the pull out method is, well, retarded. I always said to myself, oh my god, how can people get pregnant? How stupid do you have to be? But hey, I did it knowingly and this is what happened. Well...I got my period yesterday. So everything is over now. Someone said earlier that one day I will regret getting an abortion and hopefully I can have a baby with someone I love. Well I do love my boyfriend, i'm just not ready to have a baby. I don't want it to come to this world and have me as it's mother.

But this doesn't matter right now, because I am not pregnant. It's also safe to say this scared the crap out of my boyfriend and he'll be having sex with a pie from now on, if anything.

I have to go to school now, thank you everyone...
