YOU NEED TO CALM DOWN! Your having stomach problems because of stress. Your period is probably late because your stressing. Just calm down. A test taken 2 weeks after sex will not show anything. You will probably have to wait abother 2 weeks to find anything out. If your pregnant then your just pregnant! It was your decision to have sex so deal with it. Take it one day at a time girl!

Sweetheart! You need to get a grip! Calm down. I mean REALLY! You are going to be fine!
I don't think you said how old you are but judging from the way you write I do not think that you are a child. You sound at least 18-20. Anyway, you are old enough to handle this no matter what the outcome is.
Now, first and most importantly, you say that you had sex once, during your period AND that you used protection! Honey, do you have any idea how LOW, how miniscule, your odds of being pregnant are? If possible I think that they are in the negative numbers! First of all it would be some kind of freaky miracle for you to have been ovulating while you had your period. Then there is the fact that you used protection.....then there is the fact that you are all of ONE day late!!! Listen to yourself dear. You are over-reacting like crazy. The odds of pregnancy occurring from a single act of intercourse (without protection!) are between 0 and 20%!
I know that crazy things happen and you read wild stories about women getting pregnant in really unlikey circumstances but this is beyond unlikely!
If you are this freaked out ( and obviously you are) what you need to do is to call a doctor and get her to order a blood test for you. Even this early it will be 100% accurate and then you will have your answer! Then you can relax. The results will be back on the same day or the next one.
My advice to you would be that after you get this cleared up either abstain ( this stress is not worth it!) or use the shot, the patch or birth control pills. You need a form of birth control that you can trust!
Calm down sweetie. Find a doctor that will order the blood test for you. Some doctors will want to wait until you are at least a week late, so you can either say that you are a week late or you can wait another week. I personally don't think that your nerves can take another week of this stress but you do what you have to do.
I am so sorry that you are so frightened. In this day and age there is no reason for a young woman to have to fear pregnancy to this extent. There are too many excellent forms of birth control for you to use. I know that everything will work out okay.
Love and Blessings

If you are not pregnant then the stress can make your period late. Calm down and wait a few more days because the last test was probably too early to tell. You need to wait at least a week after your missed period to have an accurate test result. If you are pregnant then your stomach would not be hard yet, you are probably just cramping. Don't read about the signs yet because it is just going to stress you out thus stalling your period longer. Just calm down and know that you will not know anything for sure for the next few days. Wait three more days and go get EPT test, i think it is the most accurate. I know it is scary, but the more you stress the worse it will be for you and if you are pregnant the stress is bad for the baby. Good luck, just know that it will work out for the best. You will not be the 1st woman to ever go through this and there are so many women that did and so happy with their new little babies. I just hope you are old enough to handle the turn out no matter what it is. You will think again the next time you have unprotected sex. I truly hope everything turns out for the best

dont panic too much because thats just going to stress you out even more which could definatley delay your period or even cause it not to turn up at all - stress can cause havoc with your menstral cycle and it can also cause other sypmtoms such as headaches, nausea etc. Your stomach wouldnt be getting hard this soon after having sex as at 2 weeks gestation a baby is still only a tiny embryo barely even visible so dont worry about that either. All this combined with the fact that you had sex whilst still on your period AND you used contraception points strongly towards the fact that you're not pregnant but of course until you get your period I'm sure its still natural to worry. Keep taking tests but I would imagine you really dont have anything to worry about. Good luck and hope you start to feel a bit more relaxed soon, I know how horrible it is to be panicking about something! x

Sometimes the stress of things can delay your period so it may just be that because you have been worrying about not getting your period, it hasn't come. Also; I think it was too early for you to have taken a test and that if you are now late for your period then you can take one now and the results should be pretty accurate.
Since you used protection and this was the only time you have had sex (and assuming the protection didn't fail you ie tearing) then it seems unlikely that you are pregnant and more likely to just be stress for the reason that you haven't come on. I wouldn't hesitate in taking a hpt asap.

Good luck!

First of all you might just be stressing to hard. Relax. Stress could make your period late or chances are you could be pregnant. Wait another week or two and test again. If you are pregnant there are a lot of options out there if you don't want to keep the baby. If you are not pregnant then you need to get on some form of birth control or stop having sex. The cramps and pressure might all be in your head. Good luck to you.

Just get yourself a pregnancy test from the store. I doubt that since your stomach is getting hard already that it is from pregnancy. I takes a little while before your stomach becomes hard. Your best bet is to go out and buy a pregnancy test. Also, if you are so worried about becoming pregnant then you should be on birth control or not having sex at all. You sound like you are really young and if that is true then you probably should not even be having sex. If you are very young then I hope that you are not pregnant. And the boy you were with probably does not want you to be pregnant either

ok, first of all .. calm down and relax.
another BIG reason for missing a period is STRESS! you can stress yourself out soooo bad, that you don't get your period. I've had a few friends in college that were sooo stressed out about finals .. they didn't get their period! it's a hormone thing. you're thinking about it 24/7 which is stressing your body out and adding up and down hormones to your body.
RELAX.
you said you used protection! that's 99.9% safe!
the cramping is most likely stress! OR from having intercourse for the first time. It's not easy on your inside parts. Especially, if he wasn't gentle.
I'm telling you if you are pregnant (which I'm sure you're not) .. you would NOT get those tummy feelings that quick! you said you've been having them since the day after sex? definitely NOT from being pregnant. You don't get any symptoms that quick!
the pain is from STRESS ... the nausea is from STRESS .. the missing period is from STRESS.

calm down and take a deep breath .. I really truly don't think you are pregnant.

good luck! God bless!

Let me make sure I have the facts straight:
1) You had sex only one time and it was two days before your last period ended.
2) Protection was used.
3) You are stressed to the hilt.

My honest belief is that you are not pregnant. In general ovulation is about 2 weeks after the first day of your period. This does vary from woman to woman but I doubt that it would be during your period. Stress can and does mess with women's cycles! If you are pregnant, a simple test should show it, go ahead and take one to relieve your anxiety. Then I highly recommend reading Taking Charge of Your Fertility. It is by Toni W. I can't remember her last name but it starts with a W. Reading and understanding that will give you a lot more confidence in your ability to know your body. Then I suggest you talk to an adult you can trust about your ambivalant feelings of this encounter. You know, society does a fair job of telling our youth about the risks of pregnancy and STDs, but we fail to tell the youth about some of the feelings you may face. I know I was ashamed of myself after my first time. It was a planned encounter, but I really felt that I had let myself down.

Take care of yourself! and Good Luck!

aw... i don't think you're pregnant. :) yes, it's too early to test... but it's pretty rare to get pregnant before the 14th day after the first day of your period. you'll be fine. the symptoms of your period and of being pregnant are insanely close to eachother. so don't worry. if your period doesn't come, then yes... you can worry. and only after that can you take a pregnancy test with an accurate reading. so next time, to avoid all the worry, get on birth control (it's usually free) and use protection. worrying will only make your stomach hurt and make you sick. good luck hon.
