i have to agree with these comments it seems like you are attention seeking no dis-respect but at 18 if your mature enough to have sexual intercourse then you should be mature enough to know that you need birth control whats confusing about that ??
its quite clear what has happned probably from stressing out your cycle has just been a little messed up happens to us all but that doesnt mean your pregnant having spotting does in no way indicate a miscarrage !!!! there is nothing to be confused about i cant understand why you have not done a simple preg test from the day you felt you missed your period ? it takes 2 minutes rather than makin talkin childs talk !!

So, what happened... the test results??

I'm not sure why, but it seems that you're very focused and almost wanting to be pregnant even though it's something you're not even willing to tell your dad about.

My suggestion is that if you're not going to use condoms, at least get on birth control.  If you can't remember the pill (like alot of girls who accidentally end up prego) try discussing other options like the NuvaRing or that patch.  Although, I do have to say the patch wasn't for me when I tried it.. but I have friends who love it.

Sorry to say, but I don't think you're pregnant. I don't think you had a miscarriage either. It really sounds like you just got too far ahead of yourself...You really should have taken a pregnancy test before you started assuming that you were going to have a baby.

your body clock works in different ways i would definatly say your not pregnant ive had a later period lots of times and you would know about it if you had a miscarrage !!!, one thing i dont understand is at 18 why are you having un protected sex ??  why did you not take the morning after pill as soon as you did have un protected sex ?? i dont think you need to see a doctor you just a late period thats all

nope. you dont get a period when your pregnant or a full blown period when your pregnant. your body will stop you from getting one, you may have spotting or break through bleeding when your periods due but you dont get a full blow period.

why on earth did taking a test not come to you? you should have taken a test rather than guessing
