Confused & Worried

[dakotaice]

I'm 19 and an honors student/sophomore in college. I am NOT trying to have a baby right now. I've been on Yasmin for 2 or 3 months. This past month I went to Florida for vacation and got way off track on the pills and quit taking it (gave up, I was 3-4 days off) entirely. My boyfriend and I didn't use condoms because I'm allergic to latex. We used the "pull out" method. He never came inside me and always pulled out in time except for once. He pulled out a second too late and a very small amount was inside me. I know the pull out method isn't 100% and is totally irresponsible.

I *always* get extremely sore boobs and pimples 1-2 weeks before my period. My boobs aren't sore at all. My face is crystal clear. I feel great! But my period is 3 days late. My question is this: can the absence of symptoms completely be a symptom in of itself? If I were pregnant, shouldn't I have sore boobs, sickness, etc.? I seriously feel perfectly fine.

I've been crying a lot, over nothing. That's it. No food cravings, aversions, breast tenderness, skin break outs, etc..

What do you guys think?

Just so you know, this thread will probably get locked because it's only for girls who already know they're pregnant.

But if I were you, I'd go ahead and test. If it's positive, come back! We'd love to have you.

Oh gosh, I didn't know. Is there anywhere on this website for a question like this? I'm just desperately seeking advice from girls who actually WERE pregnant..

Thank you so much

No problem, sweetheart.

When I tested, I was super late, and I was tired and nauseated. But really, I'd go ahead and take a test or two. Pregnancy symptoms differ from person to person, so testing's really the only way to really say for sure. Keep in mind that other things can also affect your period (like stress, changes in contraception, etc.). Since you did stop your birth control all together, that could possibly affect your cycles.

Thank you! I need to test but it's such a hassle. My SO gets irritated when I bring the topic up and actually told me today it would be MY fault if I got pregnant and he would be "mad" at me! LOL! Lord, he is 21 years old! So the whole testing and finding out idea is terrifying--I've already been told I'd be handling this ordeal solo.

Sorry I posted something that isn't allowed. Thank you for the advice and I will be off now

 

[Adrienne]

Aww. Well I hope things work out for you! And like I said, if you are pregnant, do come back! Everyone's really helpful and supportive around here.

The loss of symptoms or 2 weeks before your period wouldnt be a sign because you only conceive 2 weeks before your period. x

like the other girls said, this thread will probably be closed - we honestly couldn't tell you, we're not doctors, and everyone's symptoms are different, and although certain symptoms could be a sign of pregnancy, they could be signs of other things too.. you'd be best going to see your doctor or getting a pregnancy test..

you can get non-latex condoms by the way, so he doesn't really have an excuse, and it wouldn't be your fault, if he knew you wernt taking it, he has a mouth, believe it or not, he could have said "no i won't sleep with you, without protection, as i don't want to be a father" - it's not that hard.. so don't let him blame you!!

and i dunno if it helps, but i haven't really had many symptoms throughout my pregnancy.. so if you're worried, just test, but you might get a negative, so you'd have to test, 19 days after you last had unprotected sex.. so if it was today, you'd count 19 days from now, however, some tests show up sooner.. depends on your individual HCG levels - if you're over 18, you can post in TTC (trying to concieve) - but if you're under 18, then they won't let you..

id do a test just to be sure

None of us can tell you if you are pregnant or not. All our symtpoms were different and they will be for you too. Go and take a test and come back if you are.

And just for future reference, you can get non-latex condoms so that isn't an excuse for either you or the boy. You are as much to blame as him. Neither of you had to have sex without protection so you as both equally to blame. If he isn't man enough to face up to his actions then really, he doesn't sound man enough to deserve a baby. Especially at 21, he isn't a child nor should he act like one.
Testing may be scary but you need to get it over and done with to put your mind at rest and let you know.

Its possible to have no symptoms, I didnt. Take a test though as your period was due 3 days ago you will get an accurate result. x
