my daughter came home at 16 and dropped the bombshell "mum I'm pregnant"it was last thing i wanted to hear ,she was taking the pill but forgot to take it the odd day here and there.i 've stood by her and the baby is nearly a year old.now My daughter was in the middle of a hairdressing course at college she finished her first year and went back to start her second year in September baby due December".big bump "it wasn't easy and definitely not recommended but if you have a supportive family and partner it doesn't have to be the end of the world.I'm really proud of my daughter she has passed her hairdressing course and now her driving test.maybe you could go back to college after the baby is born .its not impossible to finish college just alot harder but if you want something enough you have to work hard to get

Answer 2

Hi, first of all calm down!! Stress can be the cause of aches and pains and sickness so try and relax. Are you still taking the pill? If so, you will still have periods of sorts as it is the break in taking the pill that makes you bleed. Good pregnancy tests can detect the pregnancy hormone 3 days before your period is due. If you are really worried and dont want to wait, find the test you can do 3 days before your period is due.

I think, if you are still getting negative results you are not pregnant. Tests nowadays are so good.

I also think you should confide in your mum. You will really need her support and as a mum of a teenager, i would rather know right at the beginning than find out after other people have found out.

Good luck and p.s. there is no reason why you should give up college. I decorated the nursery, up a ladder (not a sensible thing to do I have to say!!) the day before I went into labour.

Good luck xx

You may very well be pregnant. Then, you may very well not be. Thing is, you can't change the past. If you are pregnant, then there is nothing you can do about it. So, use protection until you know for sure, and if you aren't, continue using protection. Yes, this is a wake up call either way. 16 is young regardless if you have finished high school or not. You're still a kid yourself. If you aren't ready, adoption is an option and I believe that it is in God's will. If you aren't pregnant, be aware that the pill is only like 99.3 percent accurate. Stop worrying right now because if you are, it isn't good for the baby and if you aren't, it isn't good for you. Get your mind off of the problem at hand and do something fun. If you do turn out to be pregnant and you decide to keep it, it will just be a little postponement to your plans. You can still have a future. It will be harder, take longer, and you will be poorer, but, it isn't like its the end of the world. God bless you.

Answer 4

unfortunately the only thing you can do is wait for the test. i can imagine that you must be so worried. please try not to think about it until you are able to do the test. you may be feeling sick and pained due to the stress of worry, you dont know if these are pregnancy symptoms yet.
as for college, nothing should stop you from going to college. if you are pregnant you could study up until the end of your pregnancy and resume afterwards. a good education is very very important. I think if you are under 19 years old then your local authority has an obligation to help you with continuting your studies. your college will probably have some advisors that you could talk to about being pregnant also.
dont despair, there are a lot of people you can talk to. start with your gp. if you are not happy with your gp, go to a different one. it is your choice.
again, if you are pregnant, your mum probably will go bananas. it is a huge responsibility raising a child, and a mother always wants the best for her children. getting pregnant young is a worry that most mums have for their daughters, but that does not mean that the mums will love their little girls less. keep a smile on your face for the time being until you find out one way or the other. i wish you all the best.

this is from the childline website: "It can really help if you talk to someone in your family, a carer, one of your friends or maybe a teacher. And you can call our helpline on 0800 1111 at any time."

Answer 5

I don't think that you are pregnant. Your body needs time to adjust to a difference. You were taking the pill and then you missed it. That puts an imbalance in your system and your body will try and make up for it. The other signs can also just be stressing. However, there is always a chance of pregnancy, I would go back to the doc. and have him do a blood test. They are the most reliable and you will def. be able to find out by now. I know that I was on the pill all throughout high school and when I missed some it threw my body out of whack. Try not to stress ( I know easier said than done) but it will only make things worse. I know your mom would go crazy but she will still love you and be there for you. You do need to give her time to heal and get over it though if you are and be patient with her. As for college, you will have to stop if you are doing painting and decorating, but only for the time that you are pregnant. Then you can go back..it will be difficult but it is possible. Hope that everything works out for you.

Answer 6

i don't think that you have anything to worry about, if you have done a test already and it was negative then its unlikely that you are pregnant, but it is possible to also get pregnant while you are on the pill even though its 99% safe but there is always that 1% risk and as you had intercourse without your b/f wearing a condom as well as missing the pill the risks are increased, i believe the symptoms you are experiencing are due to the stress you are going through over all of this so i can only offer you two pieces of advice, the first is to do another test if this one comes back negative then your not pregnant as you will only get a positive result if the hormone HCG is present and that's only present in your body when you are pregnant, or you could ask your doctor to do a blood test for you as well, my second advice is to always have protected sex, don't just rely on the pill if your b/f wanted to wear a condom you should have let him because you wouldn't be going through all this stress now, anyway if you need to talk about things message me and don't stress things will be OK good luck.

Answer 7

Here is a sensible answer: Yes, you can get pregnant while taking the pill. If you have a bilious attack with diarrhoea, the pill will be of no use. Also, as in your case, if you forget to take it, you are possibly no longer covered for the month, so always abstain or use condoms for at least a month. Not a bad idea to use them anyway, even with the pill if you have several partners - better than catching stds
Worrying could cause your period to be late, so try and relax until your period comes.
As a Grandmother, I know how nervous you are at the thought of telling your Mum if you are pregnant. I have been on the receiving end of such news and although I wasn't pleased, I was determined to support my Son and his girlfriend, (later wife). Give your Mum the chance to do the same for you.... she will eventually find out anyway and be even more hurt at you not telling her sooner.
Good luck.

Answer 8

You asked me to come over and answer your question so here goes.

I cant tell you if you are pregnant. Sometimes the symptoms of pregnancy can be amplified if you really believe that you are pregnant. You will just have to wait and take a test.

If you arn't: great! Start using a condom. You are right, this is your wake up call. It scared the crud out of you, and you learned your lesson.

If you are: Well, you need to make the best of it. I personally feel that you and your parents as well as the BF and his parents need to sit down and figure some things out. I don't agree with abortion at all! You made your bed, and I think you need to lie in it. You can make this work, but it will take alot of work. Don't give up. This baby needs you to be strong and mature for it.

Answer 9

People need to back off of you a little bit really, they do. It will be ok either way, I promise you hun it will be fine. I first got pregnant when I was 17 and I was already set to go into the Marine Corps. IF you are pregnant, you will still be able to go to college. Yes, your Mum will probably have a REALLY hard time at first, but it will be ok after she has time to accept it. Now, back to your symptoms. When I was pregnant with my first daughter I didn't realize I was pregant until I was 16 weeks along because I was having a period every two weeks, I thought that was odd, but didn't talk to my Mum about it. My Dr began running all types of tests on me and did a routine prenancy test, I was scared to leave the Drs office with my Mum because I thought she would kill me, seriously, lol. Some of the things you are mentioning sounds like you may be pregnant. Two people in my class got pregnant while on the pill. It's not always as safe as they act like it is, not to mention who is really to say if the pill you were on was working for your system, it may work for millions of women, but not work on thousands. Drs don't mention these things, because most of them are just in it for the $$$ I think you should wait until October 9th or so & then do a test. A negative so soon may be a false negative. There ARE false negatives, but NEVER false positives. Take Care :)

Answer 10

You probobly have nothing to worry about. Depending on what pill you are on, it may be to strong for you. That could be the reason you had such a long period and have these symptoms. If your hormone dose is to high it will make you feel a little bit sick, and breast tenderness is a side affect of the pill.
I went through a simaler situation last month and i just went and had my pill changed to a lower dose. Im fine now. So talk to your doctor, get another test done, and if it comes back negative again change your prescription and you should feel better.
