im 15 years old, and im not regular with my period. I had sex with my boyfriend about three weeks ago. I missed my period, i should have gotten it a couple of days ago, and im not sure whether or not its me being irregular, or that i could be pregnant. My abdomen, is "squishy" for lack of a better word, could that be me being pregnant? Or is it lack of exercise? When you're pregnant when do you start showing? Does your abdomen get tighter and rounder? Or is it squishy like mine? Please..I dont want criticism..im scared enough as it is..i know i shouldve thought about using protection or pills. I just need sincere help and advice, please. Im frightened.

I hope you learn something from this. Why is it you can so easily "do it" but you are scared of the consequences? You can't just play adult, you need to be one.

And you better expect criticism when you are doing things you shouldn't be doing.

Honey...don't panic just yet. Are you sure that you're not experiencing symptoms of PMS??? If you are certain that you should have started your period a few days ago, you can take a preganancy test the first day after you have missed your period. However, if it shows up negative, it may not be accurate. If it's positive, then you are almost definitely pregnant. If it is negative, wait a few weeks and if you haven't gotten your period by then, take another pregnancy test.

Now for the sermon...
My sincere advice to you and all girls/women reading this...if you are having unprotected sex with a man that is not your husband, you are nuts!!! (I'm not even going to get into cheating husbands) If you don't want a baby and/or are not prepared for the responsibility of a child, then you need to be on some form of reliable birth control. If you don't want want HIV/AIDS or any other STD, then he must wear a condom! Nothing is reliable, but please be as safe as you can be. Short of abstinence, a condom is your best protection against any sort of STD.

Child, you are 15 years old. You may feel grown now, but take it from me...you truly have a lifetime ahead of you to do and have anything that you want. I know your hormones are racing right now and all that love and attention you are receiving from this young man feels really good, BUT you will have plenty of all that later in life. Enjoy being a young lady right now. Focus on school and know that you will have plenty of time to mess around with young men later on.

I wish you the best, young lady. If you dodge the "bullet" this time around, consider it a blessing and learn from this experience.

It is most likely that you're just late or missing your period this month. I don't think the squishy stomach has anything to do with being pregnant. You wont show for a few months if you are. Two common signs of pregnancy are breast tenderness and morning sickness although not all women experience them. Try to buy a pregnancy test if you can. If you're pregnant talk to a trusted adult ASAP - preferably your parents. I know you're scared, but it will all be okay. Whether you're pregnant or not just learn from your mistake. You might also consider taking the pill. They're often prescribed for regulating periods. It would serve two purposes in your case... if you're going to have sex at least you'll have the protection (although I'm not saying you should be having sex) and if you're lucky it will regulate your periods.

Feel free to contact me through my profile if you just need to talk to someone.

I bet you are frightened. Think about this the next time you are amorous. Buy a pregnancy test. If you were ovulating at the time, there is enough time to find out your are pregnant. From ovulation to period is 14 days. You would be too early to show or have abdominal symptoms.

See a doctor about your irregular periods and let him/her know you are sexually active. Be sure to use condoms to not only protect yourself from pregnancy but also disease.

Finally, consider seeing a counselor, older friend, or sister and discuss the reasons you are having intercourse at such a young age. The results of an unplanned pregnancy at this age will take away this fun, youthful time. It is a grown-up act and the consequences are very serious.

You're probably just "stressed out" about being pregnant and that can mess things with your cycle! If your irregular to begin with, 3 days probably isn't a big worry, but if you can set your clock by the date{ meaning exactly to the date when it comes} I wouldn't wait to much longer to find out! Unprotected sex could definitely mean a pregnancy! Try one of those home pregnancy tests, the one with the line if your pregnant. It's a simple painless thing to do! If you do it right and read the instructions they're usually accurate!Then either way I would get to a doctor! If your not you can count your lucky stars and you better get on some type of birth control before you have sex again! Wait until you find out if you pregnant and then when you go to the doctors they will give you pamphlets on pregnancy to read! Symptoms are different for everybody! Figure the latest that you've been late before and I wouldn't wait too long after that , get to a docor as soon as you can! Good luck either way!

At 19 I was frightened. I took 8 different pregnancy tests - even though 7 of them came back positive! If you have any close friends who are 16 with a liscense, or your bf, have them take you to a free clinic - birthchoice, planned parenthood, a state clinic, anything. They will give you a free test. If not, see if you can't buy a pregnancy tests - or have a friend do it. You need to get that checked. If you are pregnant, early prenatal care is VERY important for both you and your baby. You can go on google.com and put in pregnancy symptoms and it will pull up things that should be happening and when they should start happeneing. I hope everything works out for the best with you. I agree, 15 is too young for sex. Too many emotions involved, and you're growing up too fast. By telling us you're frightened, tells us you're not ready to be having sex. Every action has a consequense - hopefully this time, it's just fear. Get it checked. If you are, you need to talk to your parents, and he is. Or as mentioned above, all of you sit down and talk. If I can help, or be an ear for you to talk to, feel free to Yahoo messenger me (Aymeesmama04) or email me (Aymeesmama04@yahoo.com). God bless

well first of all sweetie you need to calm down just a lil. I am 20 weeks pregnant and 20 years old. You may be just having a irregular period. When I first started noticing the tightness was about the 2nd month or later. I wasnt squishy like you are saying. You usually cant tell you are till about 2nd trimester and that is about when some women start pooching. If you need some more help or just need to talk plz feel free to email me. I wont critize you or judge cause I know what it feels like I have my whole family doing that to me now and I am 20 years old. spoiledmogurl04@yahoo.com is my email.

Usually about 3 months you begin to show. I used to be really tired and had a queasy stomach when I was pregnant usually within about 4-6 weeks. Your stomach usually has no side effects til much later and usually begins to feel firmer. If you are pregnant just deal with it and go on, life could give you something worse than a baby and hopefully your parents would understand. This is a good time to get some birth control just in case you are not this time and if it happens again. Good luck! Don't be too hard on yourself.

It takes a long time for most people to show.

the pregnancy tests are accurate very early now, so go get one.

than, please stop risking making a baby. you are risking creating a horrible life for someone. that's really lousy. you should be frightened because NOW you have an appreciation for how reckless and stupid you are being.

you are supposed to be developing your interests and talents, not getting naked and having sex. if you are so limited in your brain that you can't have a normal relationship as a teenager and must include sex, don't let him stick it in ever again. until you're married and know you can actually take care of the kid.

you are messing around with people's lives and acting like you're playing tic tac toe. stop it.

hello, that would be scary. i am 19 years old and i fell pregnant when i was 17. it is a scary thing. well every women is different when their pregnant. they all start showing at different times. i myself started showing when i was 5 months, but my belly was a jelly belly or squishy as you say. but that doesn't mean your pregnant. like i said every women is different. but if you are, you make sure you have a long think about it before you make any decisions, because your emotions will be all over the place in the first 3 months. well good luck i would love to know how thangs go.

First of all take a deep breath! You have plenty of options if you are, and you have learned a lesson if you arent. Talk to a trusted adult or friend just to get out what is going through your head. Go to Wal-mart or a drug store and buy a pregnancy test kit.( age doesnt matter) I have reason to believe I may be pregnant also the first wrong this I did was get scared and worry myself talk about it. My tummy has gotten tighter and I feel bloated (but i would be around 10 weeks). If your pregnancy test comes out positive got to the dr. if it is negative wait a week or so and take another one just to make sure. IF you need someone to talk to feel free to IM me on messenger or email me my sign on is gurley2109 or email me at lostgurl2109@yahoo.com.
