Confused

[AlexisMiracle]

i am 17 years old and i believe i am pregnant. My boyfriend and i lately have been having sex with out a condom for about a month an a half. We have sex pretty much every week or every other week. We had sex before and after my period. My period began June16 and ended about the 20th or the 21. I noticed the first two days of my period i had light bleeding and i wasnt cramping and it was strange to me because the 2nd day is always my worse. The third day it was medium heavy and the last two days it was how my normal period usually is when it finishing it gets lighter. So the day after my period to the we had sex the 21.22.23.24.&25. About five p.m saturday i went to the bathroom and as i wiped i notice a peach brown color and it lasted two days wit cramps so i think that it was implantation bleeding but all my friends said it was normal and im proably spotting after my last period but 1 i never spot after my period and 2 if it was spotting why am i cramping? Actually i have had little bleeding after my period but its leftover from my period and thats it! no cramping! So im scared and today is July28th and its been 43 days since my last period am i pregnant? and for the past few days ive been getting really bad cramps and backaches. 2 weeks after i had the light bleeding i been having headaches and sometimes feeling sick during the night after i eat dinner. one night after dinner i felt sick to my stomach and ran to the bathroom aand thought i was gonna have to puke. usually when im about to get my period i get this wierd feeling in my stomach and i have cramps but i only been getting cramps on my side and yesterday july 27th when i had to bend down or sneeze the right side of my stomach was bothering me. does anyone know if i am or not plz help?

Schools provide pregnancy tests?????

Seriously??

Wow, the things that change in 7 years. That was one thing my nurse didn't keep next to the asprin, band-aids and pepto.

okay thankyou guys for the help (:

my advice? the above comment is right! the dollar store tests are usually very accurate in telling! and highschool nurses office should carry them! if not, hit up a 24 hour walgreens or even walmart when youve got an extra 30 minutes to kill or if you work and get a break? run then.

thats what happened to me and your case sounds very much like what I was going through before I realized I was pregnant. That does NOT mean you are pregnant since every girl is different with their cycles but for sure take at least one test. Even if its one from the dollar store that only costs a buck? if you get a positive result, get in immediately!

and like some ladies on here told me when I was asking the same questions, prenatal vitamins cant hurt. if you suspect pregnancy at this point, get some over the counter ones and start taking them just in case you are. they do great things for you (and can help keep your little one healthy if pregnancy is the case)

I don't know about your school but my high school had pregnancy tests in the nurses office. Or you can go to the dollar store. They have very accurate tests that only cost (you guessed it!) a dollar!

Ashlen i turn 18 next month :-)
me and my bf been together since i was 15 & if we last together then yes
:-) your right i know thankyou

[Ashelen]

Hey I have 2 quick questions....

1) how long before you turn 18 (just curious, not being mean :-) )
and
2) does your boyfriend have insurance and plan to marry you soon? Because your parents insurance will almost certainly not pay for your pregnancy, but it differs by policy....

I ask this because...if you're concerned you're pregnant but can't get time to take one at home because of your schedule.....you can see the doctor and get a note clearing you from missing work or school. No excuses missy, you need to find a way to test :-).

Also Kim had some reaaally good points, might want to re-read a couple times.

[AlexisMiracle]

yes your are RIGHT! thankyou for your help and i hope so too!

I think people are just wondering why you haven't taken a test if you are so late because they are concerned about you and your (potential) baby.  You need to get proper pre-natal care if you are, in fact, pregnant and having a busy schedule is not a good excuse. Going to the closest Walgreen's, CVS, Walmart, even most gas stations to buy a HPT will not take you that long and you can even pee while you're there (in most cases) if you don't want to go home and risk having your parents find out before you're ready.

This is why it is important to use protection during sex when you are so young and not ready to have a baby.  Most teenagers cannot handle the responsibility for one reason or another and babies take a lot of work and care.  If you are not ready to have one (and your excuses in even taking a pregnancy test tell me you are not) then please use at least one source of protection in the future.  This is not something to mess around with, it is a child's life and they deserve the best.  I hope that everything turns out how you'd like it.

hello ladies
@ chapina- my last period which when i started was june 16th and today is aug 1st and i went one whole month without a period. everyone says if im stressed it can delay my period so it can be that or if i am pregnant. i know everyone is going to tell me to get a pt but its kinda hard to get access somewhere when my schedule is very busy.
@ annie- yes i did post this the 28th & no i havent tested
@joey - yes i will be taking a test soon and taking a trip to the doctor (: thankyou
@ marisol -thanks and i will keep you guys updated (:

[marisol_jose]

I agree- u should take a test and see what it says and go from there . Goodluck + keep us updated

[joey0211]

you should try taking a test before your suposed to get your next period..you can usually tell 4-5 weeks if you are pregnant..though when i was pregnant with my son my test always came up negitive...i never got morning sickness or anything i just would throw up if i ate certain foods...if a home test doesnt work i would go and take a blood test it shows up right away..good luck

[AnnieBrooke]

When you posted this same post on the 28th, we asked if you had tested, and you said you would do so and post the results.  What happened?  Did you test?

[chapina]

Have you tried taking a pregnancy test? It could be possible that you are indeed pregnant. When are you expecting your period this month?
