Possibilty of Being Pregnant? (scared!)

Hi, I am new to this. But I am pretty
worried and would love some advise.
Any ways
i had sex for my first time in july, we
used protection but I was still worried so
I took the morning after pill. ( I just
had received my period the morning after I
had sex) my period lasted for 11 days, the
nurse said the pill flushes every thing
out so my cycle could be different. I had
sex again, at the end of august. We used
a condom. I received my period on
september 11th the day it was exactly
expected. It lasted for 3-4 days. I just
finished my period this month well a week
ago. I got it on october 8th and it
lasted for only 3 days. At first it was
heavily bleeding then spotting. Is there
a chance I could be pregnant??? And if
there was a chance I was could I still get
an abortion? Just lately I have had
backaches and ive been feeling bloated.
Please help
thank u

You could be, but there is a very small
chance... When you get your period, it is
the lining of your uterus shedding because
the egg wasnt fertilized, so basically it
is chemically impossible to get your
period while pregnant.
I think it can happen in rare occasions,
but it isnt common.. If you are still
worried, take a home pregnancy test, as
you said august was the last time you had
sex?
I dont know about the abortion thing, i'd
wait until u found out if your really
pregnant before worrying about that
by the way,im michelle.. Im 15 and
pregnant withmy first child.. Pm me if u
need anything:)
goodluck

I really doubt that you are
pregnant....You recieved your period, and
there are many things that can make your
cycle short...Like stress. Or the
morning after pill. I know you've heard
the, use protection lecture many
times...So i'll just say you should try
some birth control so every time you have
sex you don't have to worry about things
like this...Sex should be fun, but
responsible...

Yeah, all the reply's have made me feel
better... Thanks : ) it actually means a
lot. I did get birth control but im not
on it.... Because I am not having sex. I
know I did get my period twice but I have
felt bloated.... Kinda funny but thats
pretty much it.... Is backaches and being
bloated and having this image in my head
that my stomache is getting bigger. It's
just been sticking out a little more than
usual or could it be in my head?
I'm going to take a pregnancy test though
just in case. Sex should be responsible
and not make you worry as much as i'm
worrying now! I just can't afford to be
pregnant im only 16. How possible is it
to still have your period and be pregnant?

Would gaining weight be the cause of my
stomache sticking out a little?

A lot of things could cause your stomach
to stick out, like bloating or water
retention from food, or it even could be
psycho somactic.
When I used to be active even though we'd
be very careful and use protection i'd be
very paranoid and nothing ended up
happening. Stress did cause me to be
late though, a cute little trick our body
plays on us.

If any of you were in my position, what
would you do? If I go to a clinic will
they just tell me to get the hell out of
there since I have had 2 periods? What if
the test comes out positive, and what
happens if it's negative and I still feel
it isnt right. What can I do to stop
worrying so much!
Thanks girls

The clinic I went 2 they were so extreamly
nice. And they are not there 2 judge you
only 2 help. I was scared when I went 2
get tested but if you think about it, im
sure they have seen it all and nothing
will suprise them. Its better 2 know for
sure then 2 worry about it. Good luck!

You should still take birth control, even
if you're not having sex "right now".
Give it a chance to be in your system
because you never know... You sound more
paranoid than pregnant. Your stomach
wouldn't stick out yet if you were
pregnant right now, you're probably just
retaining water. Good luck to you in the
future and start taking your birth
control!

Yeah well all of this is pretty
assuring...... I think I will take your
advice and go on the pill so I won't have
this worrying game any more. Tomorrow I
have an appointment for a pregnancy
testing.... The first question they asked
was well how many days late are you I just
said uhm! Im not! But the woman said oh
I see you would just like to get it done
to have some reassurance which is true.
But I was on the optionsforhealth.Com and
it says that along with a pregnancy there
is a pelvic exam to? What happens
there??
What would the symptons be if you were 8
weeks pregnant? Is there a chance I could
just be experiencing a stomach flu or
sickness or something?
Thanks : )

Being 8 weeks pregnant is different for
everyone. I never really felt sick but
that could have been because of my
miscarriage. My boobs hurt a little but I
just though "there growing!" when I was
about 4 weeks I was hungry all the time
and would eat a lot. But I normally do
that when im gonna get my period. It all
depends on each person everyone is
different.
