I heard that the best time to get pregnant
is within the first few days after your
period ends...Is this true? I had sex
with my boyfriend within the first 5/6
days after my period ended. Is it
possible that I could be pregnat? Please
reply or e-mail me! Thanks alot.

Most women ovulate 14 days prior to their
period. Once you ovulate you have about
24 hours to get pregnant. Also sperm can
live up to 5 days inside of you
(especially if they are healthy good
swimmers). You need to know how many days
your cycle is (e.G. 30-day cycle). If
you know this you can forcast when your
next period will start. Now, count back
14 days from the forecasted start day of
your next period and you will be real
close to your ovulation date. Start using
an ovulation predictor kit around the day
you expect to ovulate. When the kit says
your ovulating go to it! This worked for
me rather quickly. Good luck. If your
cycle is irregular than it will be harder
to predict the dates.

You can start 5 or 6 days after your
period starts, because of the fact that
the sperm can live inside of you for five
days, but if you wait 5/6 days after it
ends you are more likely to concieve.

Since You Are Only 15 ...

I have a suggestion for you. Well, two
really.
1. Why in the world are you having sex
when you are just a baby? You aren't even
driving yet! You think you 'luuuuuve"
this boy? Ha. Odds aren't you will not
marry him. You will not be together this
time next year. Honestly, believe me.
Believe us 'older' women in this room...We
know. Personal experience. Ever hear
this saying "why buy the cow, when you get
the milk for free?" yeah, uh....Read it
again, think about it. Have a little bit
more respecet for yourself than that.
15...That's insane.
2. If you absolutely, positively must
have sex, which I highly dought, you
should try this thing we like to call a
condom. It prevents a lot of things,
namely one, babies. If you don't want a
baby, use a condom. Use something. And
don't use the 'pull out method' which is
the dumbest method ever thought up. It
will still get you pregnant.
Be good to yourself, have some respect,
you will honestly regret your sex decision
making when you get older.

Actually, our relationship is long
distance...So its not like we have sex
everyday. We only see eachother, not very
often. But we actually are going to be
together along time.
I see and understand your point, now see
and understnad mine. Thanks!

You are still so young, why should you
want to be out having sex? You say your
going to be together a long time...Do you
know that for a fact? Has he already
given you an engagement ring? Bought a
place, do both of you have jobs? No your
not old enough, give it a few years darlin
and then you should be able to handle all
this.

I see your point..But I just know im my
heart that he's th one for me. How can it
be acceptable for older people to say
"wow..I found the person im going to
marry"...But a younger teen cant say that.
And dont say its cause were not
mature/responsible.
Plus I didnt really ask for advice or
people to tell me not to have sex..I asked
for help..There might already be a baby,
and that cant be changed. Anyone else
here that can answer my question?

Actually we are advising you not to have
sex considering you are only 15. And the
reason older people are allowed to say "i
found the one!" is because they have had
more experience in dating and meeting
many, many guys from bars to clubs to las
vegas to parties and work. Someone who is
15 can say what? I met guys at school, a
birthday party, and ummm...A pep rally or
football game? Plus you are only meeting
boys, you are not yet a woment to yet meet
a man. Thats why. It really is puppy
love, wait until you are 26 and you will
regret it. Because you will say why didnt
I get to go out and enjoy my youth? You
will miss out on everything thinking you
can be tied down to a boy.
And here is the answer to your question.
You can get pregnant at anytime a guy
comes in you. It is easier when you are
ovulating, which is not 4-6 days after
your period. And sperm can live up to a
little more than 72 hours. Not exactly 7
days. Maybe you should re-take sex ed,
and learn everything about it. Including
being safe as in getting tested for std's,
getting on birth control and taking a test
after your next period is late.
I dont mean this in a mean way, but you
are really too young.

I didnt say I wasnt too young..But I
really do love him. You guys dont see me
and him together. Both my mother and his
grandma agree. My mom knows that while he
was visiting we had sex.
So are you saying that I could be
pregnant? Or not...I'm just kinda
nervous, but very excited if I am! 
thanks for your help, and some of you guys
can be very mean, but others of you are
super nice. Thanks!

Darling sometimes hearing the true reality
of things not living in a fantasy world
hurts. But we all need to hear it. If my
child, at 15, was having sex under my roof
I would kick her boyfriend out and she
would get the punishment of a lifetime.
But most of all I would be disappointed
that I wasn't a good enough mother to
teach her to be safe and respect herself
enough to wait until she's older and
mature enough to handle the
responsabilities of a child.

I Have to Disagree

Sorry nikki but I have to disagree on
teenagers not knowing what love is or not
being able to know if they found the one.
I have known my best friend for almost 4
years. 3 before we began dating. We had
the most wonderful relationship. I was
definately so in love with him. He was
the only one I ever put above myself. But
I went and screwed it up. But we are
still friends. I'm hoping that one day he
might give me another chance. Don't get
me wrong, my babys father is a good guy,
it's just that if I could do it all over,
I would have done it differently. And if
I could have my ex over the father of my
baby, I would jump the chance. But I
think anyone knows when it's love. When
you dont even want to look at another guy,
when you would do anything for them (even
if it's gonna cost u) I cant explain it.
It's just sumthin you know deep down.

I never said that you couldn't be in love.
I think its definitely possible to be in
love. Cherish your love, don't get caught
up in it and get pregnant because if it's
true, you can wait.

I know...But it just happened. We used
protection, but it broke.
But i'm not gonna be sad if I am, but I
think i'll be sad if i'm not. But either
way, we're having kids together, and willb
e forever.
Thanks!

Right? Wrong?

I didnt post on here to hear you guys tell
me that what I did was wrong. I came here
because I wanted some answers. I've read
posts before, and you guys like to say
"your too young" etc. It gets old. No
matter what you guys say, teens are still
going to have sex. You guys are here to
help these people with their problems, not
tell them that they are bad for haveing
sex so young.
I dont know if what i'm saying makes
sense...But I thought I should say it.

We are not telling you your bad. And
maybe you wont stop having sex but maybe
you will all start using protection!
Honey it doesnt get old because its true.
If saying it a thousand times will get it
through to one person then it was worth
it. I've worked with so many girls, and
you don't get through to all of them but
that one you did get through to makes all
those ever so frequently repeated phrases
well worth it.

You know anything can happen, either your
pregnant or not. The best way to find out
is really going out to get a preggo test.
If you don't have any money, there's
clinics all around that you could go to.
They will give you one and will give you a
choice whether you want your parents to
know or not.
I'm not gonna try to school you but do you
really think this guy is the "one"? Long
distance relationship fails most of the
time. The fact being is that you're
always gonna feel like that person is with
another person or anything beyond
cheating. I'm 17 and i've had 2 long
distance relationships. The first one
didn't work because we both felt
like it wasn't working. I really thought
he was the one but came to find out that
he was just gassing my head up. When I
came to see him on spring break, I found
out he was cheating on me. The last long
distance relationship I had has been
working great but only because before I
left we were together for 2 yrs. And when
I was gone we were always on the phone or
some kind of contact with each other.
Also I wasn't gone long. You should
really think about what you're trying to
do. Make sure having a baby for you isn't
because you want to feel loved or because
you want to have that comfort in your mind
thinking that he is going to leave you.

When you know its the one..You know. I
talk to my boyfriend, his sister, his
grandma, and some of his friends. It's
like i'm there, but i'm not.
I love this guy more than anything in the
world. Its not that I want a baby because
I want him here, or whatever it was you
said. I mean if I am pregnant, then i'll
be happy, if not, then i'll just wait till
later in my life.
Thanks for the little piece of advice
