I'm 32, I'm finishing college this year,
and i wait tables for a living. I don't
want to be pregnant right now, and wonder
if I'm making myself think I am out of
anxiety. Right before my last period, i
had unprotected sex with my long time
boyfriend and was nervous the next day
ofcourse. I started my period on
schedule, about a week ago, but it only
lasted about two-almost three full days.
A bit shorter than usual. I don't use
birth control so it isn't unusual for my
period to vary a bit, but ofcourse I'm
nervous, considering the fact we didn't
use a condom, and I do not want to get
pregnant any time soon. The last couple
of days, i thought I had felt nausea off
and on, but I'd also had some drinks for
fourth of july. I'm not eating unusually
and my breasts aren't sore at all since my
period came and went. I've just been
extremely preoccupied with the idea, and
maybe this is making me think i feel
symptoms, even creating nausea? Any
ideas? When should I really be worried?

Pregnancy symptoms do not appear for at
least 2 weeks, so any nausea you're
feeling right now is not due to being
pregnant. Your best bet is to wait for you
next period and test.

I doubt you are pregnant since you had a
period. Probably the anxiety over if you
were pregnant or not affected the amount
of flow during your period.
But, since you're anxious, you could take
a test once it's been 2 weeks since you've
had intercourse. The results should be
accurate.

haven't had any new reasons to feel
pregnant. Actually I'm pretty sure I've
been having some indigestion/ acid reflux.
Causing the nausea feeling. That's about
it for that subject.. Thanks to all who
helped ease my nerves.
