I Think Im Pregnant Please Help!!!
Posted: 04-17-07 17:16pm

Over the past 2 years ive had many problems with birthcontrol and ive switched with my doctors advise around with many things.. i got so frustrated with unexpected periods that i just stoped taking them to hopefully "balance" everything out..

Lately ive been feeling extreamly sick, tired all the time, my boobs are swallon and my nipples are sore. Im very bloated and gasy. I have a feeling im pregnant.. Shocked

Today when i got home from school (yes im only 17) I felt so tired i went to sleep and woke up feeling extreamly sick. I couldnt move or laydown without the feeling of throwing up.. I had to miss work and they told me I need a doctors note..

So my mom made an apointment with urgent care.. And now im super scared.. I dont want to face my mom yet.. I am lost and confused on what to do.. PLEASE HELP!!! I NEED ADVISE Confused

Hi Sweetie, If you were my daughter I would want for you to tell me. Thats what Mothers are for, to be there for you in times like these. Can you not talk to your Mother? I know you are scared and confused and i do hope things turn out well for you. As you stated you are only 17. Keep us posted! Laughing

if you're having problems with birth control how come you didn't just use condoms? they're better than nothing...

or did you use condoms?

if you are pregnant then you're going to have to tell your mom sooner or later, and maybe this is for the better! if you do it at the doctors office then you won't be alone and maybe she won't blow up if she's mad since she'll be in a public place, & plus.. you'll have some help! just think, you're going to have to do it sooner or later, and sooner is better, maybe think tonight of ways you could break it to her?

how come you don't just go get a pregnancy test?

There's a funny thing about thinking you might be pregnant. As soon as you suspect you might be, you begin feeling all kinds of symptoms. The funny thing is, you probably would be feeling these things anyway and just dismiss it.

Wait until you miss your period, and then get a pregnancy test. If you can't get one on your own (they sell them at the dollar store, but maybe you don't have a way to get there) you can go to your local .planned .parenthood and they will test you for free without telling your parents.

Good luck, and please let us know how things work out!

my mom and I arent close at all. And when i say not at all i mean i never talk to her. and she refers to where i live as her and her husbands place and i am temperarly staying here. - Needless to say I went down to urgent care and spilled everything to the doctors and it was very uncomfortable.. I thought maybe spilling everything to some one i dont know might be easy.. I was wrong I was a mess.. So since I dont know when my last period was.. How would a pee sample detect if it was before my next period? It came back negative so far they said but they did say that it might not have detected it. We use condoms. but the thing with them is they break. Sad I know if you think your pregnant you might come up with symptoms. Yet i didnt mean it like i think i am. I ment I feel like I am. - even though i never have been pregnant I still had a weird feeling. Now im just waiting for my period. Thanks everyone for the advise..

Confused - its weird cause they told me. & if i just thought it wouldnt those symptoms just go away?

The symptoms for pregnancy aren't exclusive to pregnancy. That's what the problem is. People get nauseated all the time. People get tired all the time - only when you think you might be pregnant, it can feel like you can barely stand you're so exhausted. People pee all the time Wink and when your bladder isn't empty, you can feel it - and it can feel like you "always" have to go. And so on and so on. Does that make sense at all? I know how you feel, trust me. I'm 98% sure that .i'm not pregnant and yet it's always in the back of my head. As long as you have a sense that you "could be", you'll forever notice these symptoms.

It would be much easier if we as women felt things that were only felt during pregnancy - like if our skin turned bright purple or something obvious like that. Laughing

haha. i think purple skin might be a little to ovious. However at least Then everyone and their brother will no. which isnt a bad thing. - at least we wouldnt go threw all the stress in wondering. Plus many people wouldnt have to be scared of telling people. They would be just like.. well your looking a little purplish..

Being Pregnant is such an amazing thing. & A baby its self is something so special. One thing I will always think, no matter what, a baby is always perfect.

thanks so much everyone for the help. Its like sure I didnt try and have a baby. But i really started to get excited for it.. Crying
or Very sad

do you have anyone close you can tell? A friend or sibling maybe. You could try talking to the counsler at school. They can help you decide waht to do and maybe even help you tell your parents.

Im close to my brother and when i found out i was pregnant, i told him first ( in a letter). Yea he was disappointed, but he got over that and helped me tell my parents ( at a resturant, to hopefully lessen the yelling).



if you ever want to talk, pm me.
