Q: I'm New to This And Have a Question

Ok, forgive me for being a bit confused. I'm actually a bit nervous about this.

I'm a 20 year old male and i'm a little bit worried for my girlfriend. About 2-3 weeks ago we were fooling around and I don't know why but i'm a bit terrified that she might be pregnant. I just want to know how likely it is that this is the case.

Her time of the month lasts for roughly 7 days and it was during that time that we had sex. I would like to note that while we do have sex I never go further than an inch or 2 inches inside of her and I pull out a fair amount of time before i'm going to reach an orgasm. Basically I pull out and then have to finish off with my hand.

Anyway, now that you have the background story my girlfriend has been having stomach ache's lately. Not very bad (at least that's what it sounds like from the way she explained it) and it all started about 2 weeks ago. Other than that nothing seems to have changed. Is it likely that she could have gotten pregnant? Or is it just some random thing that is giving me a heart attack?

Please, if you have any idea let me know.

Thank you.

Read the sticky!!

I did read the sticky. I understand that there is the risk of her being pregnant. What I wanted to know was some opinions on the matter. The sticky didn't quite answer the question I asked.

I remember reading in another part of the forum that a girl had severe stomache pains beneath the belly button when she found out she was pregnant. I really just want to know if this is a symptom or rather is it possible that she could have just this symptom and none of the others.

I'm sorry for being so confusing but i'm pretty much going crazy with worry because I have no idea what is going on and won't be able to talk to her about for another few days.

Hello, i'm sorry you havent had a proper answer.
I guess most people would proberly say that if your sooo woried then why not use protection? And its only been two weeks right?
Well there proberly wont be any symtoms untill she misses a period. ( if she does) and in the event she does, then buy a test. Plus I would suggest visiting a doctor!! Maybe talk things over and get the pill etc. It's up to you, are you ready for a baby. I think not.
Hope I helped.

That's basically what I wanted to know. If the symptoms would show up to soon. Ok. Well it'll still be another 3-4 weeks until her period comes round again and we'll probably get the test done asap after. And no, neither of us are ready for a child or even want one. Thanks for the help though.

I personally believe that it is way too soon for her to be experiencing symptoms but every woman is different. You need to make sure that she dosn't stress too much about it because stress can cause her period to be late....Just relax, I think your chances are way low

next time use a condom!!

Heh actually. I'm the one who was stressed. She doesn't think it's that at all and is just throwing it to the wind. She figures it's either some sort of stomach virus or just her body being a health forum. As per condoms, i'm going to convince her about using them. She doesn't really like them, go figure. Thanks for the comment though. It does make me feel better that it's becoming a more or less unanimous vote that the chances are extremely slim.

What about birth control??

No idea on what her opinion is on it. She's never mentioned getting any so i'm not sure. As to birth control i'd imagine that she might be ok with it but as to whether or not she is willing to get is pretty slim (she's 18 right now and extremely shy about asking for this sort of thing). I'm sure we'll work something out though. I actually told her that until we do work it out i'll just be the one to suffer and simply not do anything of that sort until we're both ready for what may happen.
