i had unprotected sex (using the pulling
out method) on march 16th and 17th. i was
due for my period on march 18th, but it
didnt come until the 21st. i am not even
sure if this was a period, because it was
much lighter than my normal period, lasted
only 2 days, compared to the usual 5 days,
and it was meduim brown in color. (this
"period" was from march 21st to the 22nd)
i had unprotected sex again (using the
pulling out method) on march 23rd. i have
many possible explanations:
1. this wasnt actually my period, it was
implantation bleeding, and i got pregnant
2 days before my expected period, which i
heard is more unlikely but not impossible
(if so, then my period is now 11 days
late)
2. this was a period ( i heard that if you
conceive within a few days before your
expected period, your body doesnt notice
the change yet, and you still have a
period, or something like that..)
3. i conceived on the 23rd, AFTER my
"period"
i am having some symptoms that are
sounding alot like pregnancy.
- sore breasts (not quite painful, but
tender)
- nausea (reaction to smells, mostly fried
foods, but the nausea is a bit in the
morning, and a bit at night, around 7pm)
- bloating (i have been eating alot more
than i should be, but even after what
feels like one bite, im already bloated!
and the bloating hasnt gone away..)
- fatigue (i get enough sleep as i should,
but i have trouble waking up now, and im
also tired at around noon, and usually
fall asleep for a few hours at around
4pm)
- acne (breaking out all over my face and
chest, which never usually happens to me)
- moodiness (VERY extreme mood swings. i
am starting to notice them, and i tend to
feel alot of anger towards even my closest
friends, when they didnt do anything
wrong, or just something as simple as not
understand what im saying right away)
- going to the bathroom alot (sometimes
once every 2 or so hours, which is weird
for me..)
- slight abdominal pain (in the past
couple days, and it has been liek some
sort of bubble-y, twisting feeling.. i
know that sounds weird, but thats what it
feels like. sometimes feels like period
cramps, but higher, possibly inside my
uterus..? )
- headaches (this is pretty much an
everyday thing now, for about a week)
please reply!

Have you tried taking a home pregnancy
test? If the "period" you had was
actually implantation, it seems like
enough time would have passed for a
pregnancy test to be accurate.
The pull-out method is not a reliable form
of birth control at all; I have run across
many women who have gotten pregnant using
withdrawal.
No one here can tell if you are pregnant,
and sometimes, thinking that you might be
pregnant causes you to start noticing
pregnancy type symptoms. Plus, certain
stages of the menstrual cycle produce
symptoms similar to pregnancy. Around
ovulation, I always have tender breasts
and nausea, and many PMS symptoms are the
same as early pregnancy symptoms.
Take a home pregnancy test. If it comes
back negative, take one again in 2 weeks
from March 23.

if you had unprotected sex, you could very
well be pregnant. the pullout method is
not a method. all it takes is one time
& one little sperm. all you can do is
take a pregnancy test.

Im 6 weeks prenant you wouldn't farther
than me. Now Im sorry if i sound rude or
mean. Like i said im 6 weeks along and i
havent had a morning sickness and i never
had headaches and my skin is really clear
well...more clear than it was before i got
pregnant. i never had abdmoinal pain that
high never. Moodiness i belive that one
right now im in a helpful mood but you
meet me in person and i would be a big
health forum. I dont even go to the
bathroom that much and i have to be
drinking lots of liquids (which I Do).
Fatique oh yes i know what that is i have
that. I dont have bloating and im only
eating a little more than usual. and my
boobs aren't sore yet not even tender
really. So I think that you might just be
stressed out cuz that could also cause
your period the act weird or be late.
