the only way to know if you're really pregnant is take to take pregnancy test or see if your period is delayed.
anyway if you did something you should expect its consequences.
im also 16 and i am also afraid of that situation so i don't do something that will get me that problem.
anyway if you are really pregnant there's no other way but to tell your parents.
yes they will be angry to you but, they will also be the only one to help you.
if you are not then learn from it.

There are no accidents when it comes to pregnancy. There are moments when you are acting without thought, but that doesn't make the pregnancy an accident. It just means you need to be more responsible when being sexually active. If you can't rely on the guy to use a condom, you should have a back up method. Heck, you should have your own method outside of condoms. If a condom breaks, well.. you're in trouble if you aren't doing a 2nd birth control plan.
You CAN take a pregnancy test. You are perfectly capable of having sex, so you are perfectly capable of walking into a drug store, buying the test, taking it home, and peeing on the stick. Is it embarressing? Sure. But if you are not mature enough to walk into a store to buy condoms or a pregnancy test, then you probably should not be having sex.
I'm sorry if this comes off sounding like a lecture, but seriously, you really need to think your actions over before doing them, if you are that scared of what your parents would say or do.
Your body is your body. You don't have to have sex to please a guy. If he won't stick around without it, then he's not into you. He's into your body. Take the time to find a guy who wants YOU, not your body.
Suck it up, go buy a test, and take it. Heck, if you have to, take it at McDonalds, and toss it in the trash there. No one will know it was you who took it.
Or go to Planned Parenthood. They can give you the test, counsel you, and give you birth control pills, shots, patches, etc, all for free. And without telling your parents. I'd recommend the shot. It's 1 shot every 3 months, and no pills or patches to "forget" to take or put on, or have your parents find.
Honestly, at your age, you should probably just talk to your mother. Trust me. I got pregnant when I was a teen, and it was a mistake, but I've made the best of it. It wasn't an accident. It was me afraid to tell my boyfriend that he needed to wear a condom. I wasn't on a birth control method myself, though I should have been.
It was my fault, and my responsiblity. It was not an accident. His penis did not accidently ejaculate into me. We had sex on purpose, as you probably did. Even if it's in the heat of the moment, you are perfectly capable and able to say no, or to make sure that you are protected.

There are plenty of women who are surprised by an unplanned pregnancy. However, you still had sex at 16 years old. Perhaps you were careful but birth control is not 100%. Over-the-counter pregnancy tests are quick. You could take one at home when your parents aren't there or at a friend's house. They are not 100% accurate and you may get a false reading - either way. When I was pregnant with my 1st son, I had sore breasts before I knew I was pregnant, but that could also be a sign you are getting your period. If you aren't pregnant, I would rethink your method of birth control and think about practicing abstinence until you are at least of legal age. Good Luck!

are you late on your menstrual cycle? you may just be under alot of stress, and might start. Is there a parenting center in your area? Most centers provide pregnancy tests and confiedential procedures that your parents will not know. But I would go ahead and tell your parents that you are sexually active, and discuss birth control since I am getting the feeling that you aren't planning to have a baby. Think smarter sweet girl

Sounds like you might be. I'm 29 now but I was 15 when I had my first daughter and I wouldn't go back and change it if I could. I thought my parents would kill me too, but they didn't. All they did was help me and I'm sure that's what your parents will do too. Of course they'll be upset at first, but they love you and want what's best for you. You have to find out one way or another and it's alot better to just get it done now. Don't worry so much about your parents. It'll be ok.

Listen sweetie, go buy a test on your own and take it someplace your parents won't see or find out. And make sure you have someone with you because these things are never easy no matter what the results are. Also If you can't afford to buy a test go to your local women's clinic and get one done there for free. Good luck!!

You can go to a Planned Parenthood and have them help you get a pregnancy test. In the United States it illegal for them to tell your parents anything as far as I know, which you can ask when you talk to Planned Parenthood.

when I was 16...I went to CVS...stole a test (I DO NOT CONDONE THAT....DON"T STEAL!) and took it in the bathroom at Taco Bell. No one knew anything. After finding out I was NOT pregnant...I had the "I want to go on birth control because my periods are irregular and hurt too bad..."talk with my mom...IT WORKS, TRUST ME!

ok, go to the store and buy it and use it in their bathroom. that way you can toss it to the bottom of the trash after you find out. or go to a place that has planned pregnancy they give free tests and its confidential! good luck.. im hoping its a big no for you.
