Hey all, I am just writing to check out
all of your knowledge on pregnancy issues.
I really really need help fast. Here
is my situation.
About 1 and a 1/2 months ago me and my
girlfriend had sex unprotected.
Obviously I know about safe sex and all,
so did she but we didn't have a condom to
use and we wanted it. That month her
periods were due, she ended up getting
them about 3-4 days late off schedule.
We both freaked out about it then. She
got the periods about 2-3 weeks after we
had sex if I can remember correctly.
Since then we have not done it
unprotected, we have done it once more but
with a condom. We done it on the day she
finished her late period. We are both
worrying now because she was apparently
due to have here periods about 8 days ago.
One possibility we have considered is
that her last period she had was just he
last before she came pregnant or the other
possibility is that the condom was
unsuccessful.
We are both really frightened about this
because we are still teenagers and both of
our parents would absolutely kill us if
she was pregnant. What are all of your
opinions on this? I am really really
scared about this, I could not stand
living to see the disappointment on her
parents faces yet alone mine.
If you do think she is pregnant, is there
any possible way to stop the pregnancy
before it is too late?

Yeh thanks a lot for all your freakin'
help people. This was a really serious
and still is a serious matter to myself
and my girlfriend. We don't know where to
turn and I found here asking for help and
get nothing. I might as well end my life
or my parents will when they find out if
she really is pregnant. My girlfriend is
now 18 days late of her period..

Don't listen to taht dude... While she
can be pregnant, she could also be
stressing about this so much that it
throws off her period.
This happened with my gf, she stressed
about it so much she put off her period.
After takinga pregnancy test (which read
neg.) she gets fine and gets it the next
day.
Maybe you should get ahome preg test?
And seriously dude (the poster above me)
you are a dick... He came for advice.

If shes 18 days late then yes she could be
pregnant, however she could be stressing
so much that shes totally thrown her
cycles off. Has she taken a test? If not
then have her take a hpt, if its negative
then maybe she'll calm herself down enough
for her period to come. But if its
negative and within a week she still
doesn't get it she should definitely see a
docotor. Some women won't get positive
hpt results even if they are pregnant so
getting a blood test done would be alot
more accurate. And if shes not pregnant
and still not getting her period it could
be something more serious. I'd make a
docs appointment. Good luck.

Have you bought her a pregnancy test?
Some are effective the first day of missed
period.

Ok! Thanks heaps for your helpful
replies people, for a bit I thought I was
being neglected seeing this thread wasn't
replied to for over a week.
Reading the replies and taken into
concideration, we bought three hpt's and
all showed negative. It relieved us
heaps of so much pressure about her being
pregnant, but she still has not received
her periods. After reading what poohbear
said, I am scared that the tests were
in-effective now. All three tests showed
negative, if she was pregnant they would
have shown positive because it has been
over 2 months since we had intercourse.
Is there a possibility that the test
didn't work? I have also heard from
friends and elders that some teenage girls
skip their periods occasionally. My good
friend (a girl) recently missed her
periods (5 weeks late) so I am also
thinking that this is happening to my
girlfriend.
Should I still be cautious of pregnancy or
should I just not stress. I haven't told
my girlfriend that she could still be
pregnant because I don't want to put any
pressure on her.
Any suggestions ?

I forgot to apologise about me second post

am stressed out and when I saw that noone
had replied, I freaked out. My apologies
to anyone I offended. :)

If you had sex with a condom then I doubt
there is anything to worry about, that and
considering you took 3 tests that came out
negative. However you just never know. I
think she should make a doc appointment
and get a blood test done that way you'll
know for sure. Also like I said in my
pervious post it (and I don't want to
scare you or your gf but you never know)
it could be something more serious and
thats why shes skipping her periods. Good
luck.

If you're sure you used the hpt properly..
Then you can pretty trust it... It's
quite reliable... But the period being 5
weeks late.. May just be irregular
period... Since you said she's a teen...
A girls period can be irregular for the
first 3-5 years... Sometimes a girl can
miss her period... But she should see a
doctor to get checked... Good luck!! =)

Thank you so much for all of your help
people. You have really reassured me that
we haven't got much to worry about. I
will take her to the doctors to see what
exactly is going on. :)
