missed period
Ok, well my period is 2 weeks late this month and about a month and a half ago I had unprotected sex a few days after my period stopped . But I have taken 2 at home tests and both has been negative which makes me not no anymore....do you have any advice? Nothing much has changed with me...I'm even having a few pregnancy signs like hot flashes, headaches, mood swings....I just need some help! Please!
You have to write down: where would you live? Who would be working? Both of you, or just one? Would you use day care and/or be a stay at home mom? How would you do the parenting? How do you discipline the child? Can you afford it all? There is a lot to think about...
It's important to have a good foundation before bringing a child into the world. I love children and so does my fiance, but neither of us want to ttc until we are married to have that stable relationship foundation for the baby and also want to be settled financially because babies are expensive, especially as they get older. Babies are not just cutesy little humans to bring around with you, it's a huge responsibility. You can ask around to other young mothers on how tough it can be. Plus, like iMazed said, your bf may very well walk out the door once he finds out your pregnant. I would never recommend ttc when not married, because many times the relationship ends when the baby comes. If you still want to ttc, sit down and write out how it would work.
Ok girl thanks for the advice :) I think I do need to wait a little bit...because I am just starting to look for a job...and need to grow up jsut a little more too lol
All I can ask is whether or not you would be able to support a child on your own. Yes, you have a boyfriend and he's probably wonderful, but just in case. It happened to me and to quite a few girls I know. You might be able to handle the responsibility but if you don't have the financial means I'd say wait a little. You're 18 and it pays to have patience. I'm only 22, but I can tell you that SO MUCH can change in those few years. I always thought that was bull too, but trust me. You'd be doing yourself a favour!
Hey, um..yeah I do cause my bf and I both would like a child together...but yeah they are alot of responsibility which idk if I can deal with jsut yet...but im thinking I could..
Are you trying to get pregnant? Stress or wanting a baby very bad can make you have similar symptoms to pregnancy even when not pregnant. Though symptoms are not reliable and the only way to know if you are pregnant or not is by a pregnancy test, either taken at home or at your doctor's office. If you are not trying to get pregnant, make a doctor's appointment to get on some form of birth control. Babies are a huge, life changing responsibility.
The fact that you are two weeks late does not mean you are pregnant, there are several reasons a period could be late. I would suggest waiting another two weeks, and if your period has not yet happened, take a pregnancy test again.
the doctor will be able to identify whether you are pregnant or not. to be sure you will need to do that.
take care and God Bless you.
