Sweetheart please go and buy a pregnancy test, u can get them from a supermarket or a chemist, as least u'll know for sure if you are or not. If you are, please confide in your Mum, she may go a bit mental to start with coz she cares about you but then you can talk to her about what you want to do next. Please go and get a pregnancy test, don't ignore it at least you'll know, you might not be !!! Good Luck hun x

OK. Firstly, if you have had unprotected sex or the condom split, then it is of course possible that you could be pregnant. It is also possible for women to experience spotting or light periods during pregnancy. However, it's also likely that you are simply feeling guilty and paranoid which is causing you to worry excessively and feel 'symptoms'.
It is very important you take a test so that you can move on, one way or the other. Go and buy one at a chemist or pharmacy or see your doctor for a blood test - yes, it's a little embarassing but you certainly won't be the first, and just think how good it will be to know for sure.
If you are pregnant, then it is important you find out so that you can start making decisions and get the healthcare you need. Bear in mind that home tests can sometimes give a false negative in early pregnancy, so make sure you do more than one. And - above all - if you are still worried or unsure, then take a deep breath and brave going to the doctors.
Lastly - if you are pregnant or still have doubts, talk to your parents!!! Yep, they will probably go mental again, but that's their job (it helps to view their anger as being representative of how much they love you!). When they've calmed down, they will help you and may even surprise you.
Good luck :-)

Get a test, you will only be sure if you get one, your mind can play tricks on you when you worry about something and these "cravings" might be just that. Whatever the outcome of the test, talk it over with your mum I know she went mental but shes been there herself, dont go through it alone. If this happens again theres always emergency contraception it can be reliable up to 72 hours after sex. embarassing to ask for (even at 35!!) but worth it.
Good luck.

Calm down, it doesn't sound to me like you are pregnant, have you thought of taking a pregnancy test? They're simple and very informative! I know how it is when you think you're pregnant - it's the only thing on your mind. But if your periods since then were regular with the same flow, then I would say you are not pregnant. Maybe you should go to your mom and then both of you go see the doctor and he'll tell you what's going on. Good luck!

If you're craving things you could possible be over-eating, causing weight gain.
It sounds like it was at least 3 months ago that you had sex, by now you'd have a lot more symptoms than you're mentioning. Also, your body can play tricks on you if you're really worrying about something and it's easy to 'convince' yourself that somethings happening when it's not.
If you're having normal periods, I expect everything is fine. If you're still concerned then a trip to your GP may be in order. hey can also talk to you in confidence about available contraception to prevent this in the future.
Try not to worry.

Well, usually if you have had a period the chances of you being pregnant are NIL. It all depends if you have slept with anyone else sinnce then.
Just do a test, you can pick up chemists own brand for less than a fiver - you'll just have to put the Diamond White on hold for a night.

If you've had your period then I doubt very much that you are pregnant. The putting on weight, cravings etc is probably more psychological as you are worrying about it. If you really are that worried go to Asda or Tesco & buy a test (you can pick one up for about £5) & put your mind at rest.

Since your mother knows that you have had sex then you have a very powerful ally by your side. I would talk to her about this situation and she will be able to take you to the doctors or buy you a hpt. She is the best person to help you out on this one. Good luck.

I suggest that you do a pregnancy test, or go to your local family planning clinic and speak to them. Yes you can have periods while pregnant, but there is only 1 way to find out.

I would go to the doctors and get a test done. Also ask the doctor for advice on what to do if you are pregnant. I am sure they can refer you to someone who specialises in cases such as yours.
