Dear Cramping,

This is a question for the Sexuality forum, not for this one, the Relationship Decision forum.

Good luck!

Also, just start keeping up with your ovulations.
You will know when you need to be more careful

You will start ovulation 13 or 14 days after your period starts.

So, if you started on the 14th of april, you would be ovulating either on the 27th, or 28th.
Remember that the egg can stay alive for up to 3 days.
Sperm can also stay alive for several days, so you could get pregnant several days after intercourse.

Those are just some things to keep in mind.

More than likely too soon to tell.

I have been pregnant twice, and unfortunately miscarried both times.

The first time I didn't get cramps until the day I was supposed to start my period.
The second time, I was about 5 days late on my period.

I occasionally get cramps after intercourse, so there isn't anything to worry about yet.
You will know you're pregnant when you start vomiting out of nowhere. Trust me, you will feel fine, and then vomit. It'll look like scrambled eggs.

Just take it easy until its time for your period to start.
Anxiety can make your period start way late, which causes a scary time before that.

Just keep yourself calm, and try not to think about it.

Keep mentally active, and put yourself into calming situations.
Bubblebaths, reading, listening to calm music.

The calmer you keep yourself, the more likely it is that your period will start on time.

If your period is running a few days late, get a test immediately.
If you are pregnant, you need a doctor right away.
I can't stress that enough.
Also, if you are young, tell your mom if you are pregnant immediately.
Its scary, and I had to do the same thing when I was 19, but mommy knows best.
She's been there and done that, and she may be upset, but she will know whats in your best interest.
Telling your mother is the smartest thing you could do.
