Im Scared Posted: 03-22-07 08:49am
okay my boyfriend and i have been having
sex with out a condom for a long time now
because he pulls out every time he comes
and im not on any form of birthcontrol. so
this past week i have been experencing
cramps in my lower ab. and sometimes at
night i feel really sick like i have to
throw up. i really scared because every
time i eat at night i get really sick. i
work at a coffee shop and the smell of
coffee is sometimes is making me sick at
work and i never had that problem. i dont
now if every thing is in my head or if
i'am really pregnant.

pulling out is not a reliable method of
birth control, plenty of people have
gotten pregnant this way.
when is your period due? if it's late you
can test now or you can wait until it's
due and test.
if it turns out you're not pregnant you
really should get on some form of birth
control.
if it turns out you are pregnant you
should make an appointment with your
doctor and visit the pregnancy forum,
there are a lot of supportive girls there
and they can answer any questions you
have.
good luck!

just wait it out a week & see. there
were numerous times i thought i might be
pregnant, too & it turned out that it
was all in my head. sometimes, when you
know that there is a chance you could be
pregnant, you fool your body into
experiencing the same symptoms the body of
a pregnant woman experiences.
there are pregnancy tests you can take
earlier than the first day of your missed
period. the only downfall w/ them is they
might not come back accurate b/c [if you
are pregnant] your body may not be
producing enough hCG, the pregnancy
hormone.
keep us updated. from the tone i pick up
in the post you wrote, it sounds as if
you're not hoping to get pregnant?

lets just say if i do get pregnant i wont
have a house to live in. cause last year i
was sick and i was throwing up. my dad
came running in screaming
" are you f'in pregnant!?!?" and my mom is
not the most stable person to live with.
so i would have to move out if it came
down to it. i could move out if i wanted
to now by i cant really affored it right
now

I know nobodies situation is the same but
my parents took my pregnancy very badly
but didn't throw me out. Trust me 9 out of
10 parents who react in this way end up
being doting grandparents. I'm not going
to give you my opinions on abortion but in
my opinion if you are pregnant just keep
in mind that the baby didn't ask to be
made

You really need to do a test as soon as
your period is due because as someone has
already said you can fool yourself into
having signs of pregnancy and actually be
pregnant I know it happens to me every
month. If it turns out you arn't pregnant
you HAVE to do something about birth
control you can not rely on the method you
are using at the end of the day it won't
be his problem if you get pregnant you are
the one who will have to deal with it
along with your parents. Don't worry about
them though I would rant and rave at my
kids but NEVER EVER see them out on the
streets! Good luck and there are lots of
options out there for you and you don't
have to go through them on your own!!
