...i'm 15 and i might be pregnant?

Question

i'm not completely sure, as i haven't taken a test or anything, and i haven't yet gotten to the point where i'd know if i'll miss my period, but this thought has been nagging at me for about three weeks...and i'm not sure if my body's changing or if i'm just overly aware of everything because of fear.
and honestly, i'm terrified. so...if you have any adivce as to what i can possibly do? i mean, if i do miss my period and i'm fairly sure i'm pregnant? my parents wouldn't have the least bit or understanding, and i could really just use some advice...for anything.

and i don't need to be told i'm too young to be having sex, that doesn't help me at all. i didn't get over my fear of posting a question like this to be preached to, just to get an answer that might help me if i even will need the help.

Answer 1

Honestly, first thing, ignore the comments of people that are telling you, you're too young, half of these people probably lost it before you. Although the ideal thing would've been for you to wait longer, reality is you didn't. I completely understand that you are terrified, I'm older than you, I've been in a relationship that my family is happy with for three years, and if I were to tell them I'm pregnant they wouldn't speak to me. But first thing you're gonna have to do, is calm down, stressing out isn't going to change anything, and it might actually delay your period even more. Another thing a lot of the symptoms people get when they are pregnant they get days before they get their period. The first thing you need to do is, if it's been 72 hours or less since the last time you had unprotected sex, go to a Planned Parenthood and get the Plan B pill. If you're boyfriend is 18 or older he can get it for you. The pill is usually 10-45 bucks depending on where you go. So I know the money will probably be difficult. If you're boyfriend isn't 18 or older, you're going to have to go to the Planned Parenthood, and I believe in order to get the Plan B, which by the way if you are pregnant won't end or hurt your pregnancy...so it's only effective up to a couple of days since the unprotected intercourse, you will need to see the physician. Since you are 15, an abortion is really out of the question, because last time I checked if you're under 18 or is it 17 a parent has to be informed, so your best bet is the Plan B pill. And if you're not pregnant, let's hope that you're not, please it won't kill you to use a condom next time, and if possible get on birth control, you can go to your physican, and give the excuse that your period isn't regulated, and you want to regulate it, just incase you don't want your doctor to know you're not a virgin. And remember have him put on a condom, you can even get them free in some schools and hospitals, and even in Planned Parenthood.

Answer 2

Calm down. That's the best advice that I can give to you. Right now, you're so terrified and worried that you may be pregnant that every twitch, pain, etc, you think is some kind of sign that you're pregnant. We all do it. It's normal but it's not necessarily a sign of pregnancy.

Wait until you're supposed to start and if you don't, get and take a pregnancy test. You'll know from then.

If you have a positive pregnancy test, you have two basic options - keep the pregnancy or end the pregnancy. The choice is yours to make and only you can make it. If you choose to keep the pregnancy, then you have to decide whether to keep the resulting child or seek an adoption. This decision, too, is yours and yours alone to make. Don't let people push you around either.

In the future, no matter what happens, you might want to consider getting on some better form of birth control - the pill, the patch, the shot, or the ring.

Also, your parents love you even if that's hard to see or understand. Unless they are abusive toward you, they would want to know so that they can help you. Consider telling them.

Best of luck!

Answer 3

Well i tottally know how you feel hun!!! But dont worry if you are pregnant ...great, it dosnt matter how old you are. People dont kno what they are talking about. Its a baby not a bomb and im sure you could be doing alot worse things than having sex and babies, lol. I was terrified to, your parents will understand, and if they dont and are mad at first well thats normal. But if you are pregnant and decide to keep Jr. it will be there grandchild so they should be happy. Just wait and see a docter in about a week or two. Also just go to google and type in symtoms of pregnancy and read about it. Symptoms and the hormone will not show up on a Prego test right away so it will take some time. Good luck. If you need to talk email me.

Im 15 and 39 weeks pregnant.Single Mom.!! Due this frieday. ANd proud of it!!!!

Answer 4

All you can do right now is wait to see if you get your period. You are probably so worried about it that you are noticing every little thing right now. You really can't tell any differences yet if you were pregnant. You need to just calm down & wait. I know thats hard. As soon as you know you have missed your period for sure, you need to take a test so you can know. If it's positive then you will have to decide what you want to do. Are you sure your parents would be as hard as you say? No parent is gonna want to hear their daughter is pregnant, but after the shock is worn off, most parents would try to help you figure out what you should do. They wont be happy about it, but maybe they wont be as bad as you think. If your sure you can't tell them, then you need to find someone else, an aunt, a family friend, a friends mother, someone, who you can talk to that you can trust. You can't do this all by yourself, you need someone. But you may not even be pregnant, you should just stay calm & wait for now. I really hope your not pregnant. I wish I could help you more! Good Luck!! And please be more carefull in the future, 15 should be a fun year for you!

Answer 5

well buy a pregnany test and do that then if you are pregnant before you tell your parents. The job of a parent is be for you in this instance and if they love you enough they wouldn't hold alot against you. Third stop having sex this should be enough of a reason that you should stop hopefully you learned your lesson. If you are pregnant don't get an abortion! Keep the baby I have a friend who did and it haunted her for the rest of her life. At least do it with honor if you are. If you dont want to keep the baby give it up for adoption. There are alot of people who cant get pregnant who would love to adopt it.

Answer 6

What is wrong with you people? Last time I checked, she wasn't asking for your approval of pre-marital sex, or evening wanting your blessing. Many people have sex before they are married. No it doesn't make it right but it happens. I think it is awful you all would suggest that if she was pregnant you hoped she'd learn from the hard lesson.

Do you have any idea of the cycle your period is on? Regular 28 day cycle? If I were you, I would go to a free clinic that offers free checkups and/or discounted birth control pills. Or if you can't do that, atleast try to buy a home pregnancy test. You don't necessarily have to take it at home where you're parents can find it. You could always buy one at say Walmart and then use the test there. (Just keep your receipt so they don't accuse you of shoplifting) I wish you all the luck in the world.

Answer 7

My advice is go to the doctor, have them test you that way you'll know for sure. That and next time you might want to use protection and also ask your doctor about birth control. Obviously no form of protection or birth control is 100% effective. In the worse case scenarion you could have a really nasty STD so it would be wise to go to the doctor's and see if you are pregnant, have an STD or if your body is just changing.

Answer 8

Well for starters, quit panicking!! That keeps your period 'scared' away! Stressing out causes irregularities. You are so worried because it is something you know you should not have been doing!!! You don't have sex at 15! You don't have sex at 15 without using protection. IT'S NOT COOL!!!!! And he doesn't love you any more than he would if you made him use a condom!!!!! It's sex for the fun of it, not for the emotional ties it brings to two people who are actually IN love!

Second, if you aren't pregnant I hope that this has scared you enough to start using your head and be sure any future sexual relations are done using PROTECTION!!!!! Oh wait, I already said that. Just start using your head is all I need to say about it if you aren't!!!

And last, if you are - well you own up to your responsibility, tell your parents, even though they will be livid!, and you buck up to be the best little mommy you can be. If you or your parents are unable to take care of baby, set up an appointment with an agency to do a private adoption. This will be a very huge life altering experience. It happens to people. You just have to do whats right and own up.

Answer 9

Please calm down about it first, because if you are pregnant, then you cannot do anything about it at this point. I just want you to know that I don't judge you. I am the last person to point a finger at anyone for having a baby out of wedlock. I was pregnant at 19, and because of God's mercy and grace, my child's father and I married, and are now expecting our 3rd child. It is really hard being a mommy, and you are really young, but nothing is impossible with Christ. No one can fill the void in your life but Him, and the best advice I could ever give you would be to seek Him with your whole heart. If you are pregnant, it's not a mistake. God knew that child before the earth was even formed and has a plan for that baby's life. Give your life to Jesus, and He will give you the strength necessary to overcome the trials that are sure to come, and help you to be the best mommy that you can be. I hope everything works out for you, and pray for your safekeeping. God Bless

Answer 10

i have a 15 year old who just had a baby. your parents will be mad at first, but if they are good people they will realize that your health is the most important. first get tested, if you are , take a few days and decide what to do. even at 15 you have choices. if you decide to have the baby get to a doctor for prenatal care. i was so mad about my girl getting pregnant i thought about harming the s.o.b. that she was dating. luckily, i calmed down. i now have a beautiful granddaughter and woould not trade her for the world. it will be hard and you will need your parents and the father and his parents behind you, but it is not impossible. p.s. if you are not pregnant and are going to keep having sex, get some protection first!!!
