She Might Be Pregnant?

Its been eating me up for almost a week, the fact that my girlfriend has not had her period yet. I know i will get flamed and i deserve it. Just writing this is making me feel down. And i respect all the comments, be it negative or REALLY negative. I didnt use a condom, she didnt think she was ovulating, etc and ive was just stupid. But here it goes anyway.

Ive been w/ her 3 months and i got a call saying that she said she mightve missed her period. I was like, thats impossible, i was barely in her a minute before a pulled out because i wanted to be very safe. So we finished off not through that. that was over a month ago.

her period last month was on Jan 20. Its Feb 25 already. Should i really be worried? I did research and it might be late for other reasons but were about to purchase a test and try to see. Its been killing me in many ways, just thinking about it.

I am very prolife, catholic, etc and dont wanna resort to making a decision that serious, but i may just be wondering it too soon, when it may just be nothing. Perhaps any females wanna help posting about late periods? Were both getting more worried day by day but im not just gonna bail her. I wasnt looking for a one night stand.

But i need advice. she hasnt had any symptons per se... and im just worried cuz that how i always am. I never wouldve thought that i would be at this stage or situation... just 5 years ago i joined this board and was asking you guys about my first girlfriend. Now im asking for some wisdom. Just to say, we gave up sex for lent - 5 weeks worth. and we learned from this.

Words of wisdom?

Too much/too little body fat, stress or other things CAN contribute to a late or missed period. Personally she should have done the Plan B thing.

I'd hang tight before freaking out too much. Wait for more info.

Oh, i plan on using this experience to persuade her into trying anal.

But when is it right to use a preg. test? i saw it can be wrong provided it's too early...

I agree with Whiskers and Ken1997TL. It's best to find out for sure before you jump to any unnecessary conclusions. It's going to be a rough time until you know whether or not your girlfriend is pregnant, but without knowing try not to assume the worst.

If she isn't pregnant, consider yourself lucky. The birth control method (in actuality nothing) you are using isn't safe, and if you continue to practice the same method she will eventually become pregnant. You're only seventeen and I suppose your girlfriend is close to same age. Her becoming pregnant at this time would most likely be very hard for you BOTH at this time.

She needs to confirm whether or not she is pregnant and take it from there.

All the best.

I've been through this a number of times. Although I'm always safe my period is often irregular so I've had a few panics. When ever I have real stressful stuff going on my schedule gets all screwy.

You should get a pretty accurate reading if she takes the test now, its not too early.

My wife, then gf, was so irregular I got this call about 4 times a year. Then the more worked up she got it just wouldn't come. Go get the test. You will know the truth in a few minutes.

dont be a jackass, if shes pregnant get rid of it, YOUR NOT EVEN 18 BRO.

Honestly, the thought of keeping it shouldnt enter your mind. You dont have a career, and you dont have money to raise a kid. and your not even out of HIGH SCHOOL.

You need to think long and hard about the kind of life YOUR kid will have if you decide to keep it.

dont even think about that: "im a man, i dont need help, i can do anything, i gotta man up for this" BULLSHIT, it will get you nowhere.

not trying to be a dick, just trying to be honest

^^ Just not his decision now. If she is pregnant then both of you need to get the parents involved, sooner or later.

Dude, we all understand your under stress now, but wait for another 3-5 days. Like others said, there are other factors to consider. And kid, if it's meant to be, then it's meant to be. If not, then it's not.. Just weigh out your options positively.. Good luck, keep it updated!

Learn from your mistakes..

However, I personally think it's too early for you to worrying.
http://pregnancy.about.com/od/amipre...ssedperiod.htm

Also, If you guys find out that she is..
Try Plan B. (I was watching TV the other day and saw it on the commercial)

Either way, hope you guys make wise decision, good luck.

Its not fully his, but he can influence his girl, and the parents can too

I had a friend who was always worried about it. His girlfriend missed her period for an entire month, many times, she was never pregnant though. The fact that you didn't finish in her really leaves a lot of breathing room. Chances of her becoming pregnant is rare. I think you should be okay, it hasn't been that long.

Plan B is only about 90% effective when taken within 3 days after having unprotected sex. If the girl is already pregnant, it won't do anything because it is not an abortion pill.

First of all, it doesn't matter how short you were inside her. Once you are inside and sperm cells come out (yes, they are present in precum although in smaller amounts), she can get pregnant. Use condom next time or birth control pills because the rhythm or ovulation method is only 80% effective.

Secondly, 5 days of not having menstrual period is still early as she might just be delayed due to stress. If you guys really want to find out now, suggest taking the "First Response" pregnancy test. From what I understand, it detects small amounts of the pregnancy hormone.

Good luck.

Well i want to thank all those who responded so quickly. We actually checked the calendar and it was actually january 17th when she had it. Making today actually 11 days late. That really got me worried when she told me about it. But your advice really calmed me down and helped me face reality more...

it seemed my prayers were really answered and tonight, just a few minutes ago, she had her period. Although i was naive, it was better safe then sorry and i needed to learn my lesson. Despite all the research i did, nothing helped me more than the real live responses from people here.







shit. i still have to give up sex for lent though

I'm glad things worked out! Count yourself lucky, and learn from it. You've been given a gift actually, because this one is going to stick with you and will hopefully be the thing that keeps you (and her) out of trouble.

Instead of a Christmas Toy Drive, or the Breast Cancer drive, can we start a Condom drive for all of A-zine's young ones?

LMAO, Dude. You are practicing all the Catholic traditions-

1. Rhythm method.
2. No BC.
3. Abortion out of the question.
4. Pro-life

...except

No sex before marriage!

Don't do the crime, if you can't do the time. 17yo minuteman and the pull-out ain't going to work, my friend. 17yo girl and the ovulation calendar ain't going to work, either- too many reasons to be unpredictable at that age.

Seriously, back up, WRAP IT UP, no exceptions, and go forth and enjoy thyself.

How many more times are we gonna read stories like this one? With kids in their teens! Unbelievable... Get a BJ and cum in her mouth or sumthin, or just get her on the pill, use the morning after pill once a month (you will be circling THAT day on your calendar playa haha) or wear a condom (last option)

warning...bro i went through a similar situation and my girl....told me she got her period..we were extremly happy when she realized 2 days later it ended.

She was actually pregnant. She was actually spotting. SO make sure she has her period.

My question to you is she a regular? If she is a regular she should NOT be so late especially almost 2 weeks late
