Could I be Pregnate... Please help

I know this might sound strange but it's been bothering me for the past week. My boyfriend and I are just doing foreplay. However his penis came close to my vagina a couple of times and I believe there was pre-come. I was expecting my period to come a day after this happened because I was starting to spot before. Now all I've gotten since is just spotting and no period. Could this be a pregnancy?

While it's not likely, it is possible. When a guy is aroused, a clear alkaline liquid -- that's considered to be sperm-free -- is released to lubricate his urethra (the tube that carries the urine and sperm out of his body), preparing it for the safe passage of sperm when he does in fact ejaculate.
But any sperm left in the urethra from a previous ejaculation can mix with the secretion. And, if his little swimmers make their way into your vagina, you can get pregnant. You should also know that this fluid can transmit STDs, such as HIV and hepatitis. And, other diseases, such as herpes, can be passed simply by rubbing against each other's genitals.

Bottom line: Since exposure to pre-ejaculatory fluid can lead to pregnancy, play it smart and have him use a condom. If you add water-based lube, he'll learn that rubbing against you will still feel fabulous.

I hope this helps!

I'm sorry but was she just given advice on stealing pregnancy tests???

Martika- Of course I know it is in theory possible to get pregnant without actually penetrating but it is so unlikely and the fact that she mentioned that her period was due the next day it is even more likely.
Does anyone actually know anyone that has gotten pregnant from sperm just coming near their vagina? I am dying to know.

It's unlikely, but yes, it's possible.  If you're that concerned, take a test, they're not that expensive, and not that hard to steal.  And planned parenthood will do it for free if you really can't get one of the home tests.

it's only been about a week. Even though I'm spotting and getting the brownish spots that means I could still possibly be pregnant?

Seriously, ppl need to read up up on things before offering advice, (even me sometimes). (srry to offend)

ANYTIME the penis comes in contact with the vagina (rubbing, intercourse etc.)
And it there are no clothes in the way, it IS possible to get pregnant if there is precum or he cums.

However it's NOT probable.  

When was your "PERIOD" due? If it has passed and been about 2 weeks take a test, it should tell you if you are or arent.
