Hello everyone, I am new to this site. I
have a question regarding pregnancy. My
Boyfriend and I had unprotected sex in the
end of May & in the begining of June,
I have always had my period at the same
time of the month, well in June I started
on the 18th and only for one day. which I
usually start on the 24th and last one
week! well I then had my period in July
which started on the 14th and lasted til
the 18th. My boyfriend and I had
unprotected sex again on the 19th of July
the day after my period stopped. Ever
since then I am wondering if I am
pregnant. Some symptoms: Head ache, back
ache, sometimes feel like I need to throw
up, and tenderness in breast. And when I
get hungry I feel like I have to eat right
the second or I will get sick. I don't
know what to do about this and I am very
worried about it. I can not sleep at night
cause I am thinking about it so much! I
have heard that sometimes you can kinda
trick your body into thinking your
pregnant if it is always on your mind.
Also. if I take a home pregnancy test how
soon would I be able to tell? It has been
9 days since the last time I had
unprotected sex. Unless, I got pregnant in
May or June. But what about the period in
July? PLEASE HELP ME IF YOUCAN WITH ANY
OPINONS OR SUGGESTIONS!!

I suggest Lorraine that you act
responsable and start using birth control.
Your stress level will drop and you will
get to sleep at night. Don't try and trap
somebody by getting pregnant. Did you ever
think of birth control, sexual transmitted
diseases and other?????
Take responsability for your actions, if
you can't he should.

Lorraine, could you be pregnant Posted: 07-28-03 17:55pm
You may be but you really will not know
until you take a PG test. My advice for
you is that you go to your local health
department to take the test. If you are,
they will help you in so many ways. When
I was 23, I too was in your situation, and
did not want to get tested. I finally
went in (12 weeks pregnant) and I found
out I was going to be a mommy. I love my
son and as scared at that time but do not
regret it. With the help of the health
department I survived. Although it did
not work out with me and the father, I am
happy to say that I am now happily married
(2 years). I am sorry to say though, that
10 years after the birth of my son, I have
not been able to conceive. I wish I were
in your position to a certain point. Good
luck, take the test so that you will know
and take care of your body (and if PG,
take care of your body for your baby's
sake). If you are not PG, use
protection, not knowing is stressful and
do not put yourself in this position
again. Not to mention STDs!
