please help me... I'm kinda freaking out O_O

[faine]

ok for starters I'm 17 and I think I might be pregnant...

I had sex about 5 days ago but for about three days I've been haveing a few symptoms. I'm gona add that it was protected sex, my boyfriend wore a condom and we've only recently started haveing sex so he did even ejaculate even with the condom just to be on the safe side, he withdrew before hand.

The symptoms I've been haveing, I looked up on many different websites and they all seem to point to pregnancy which is why I'm so worried. Here are my symptoms:

- my breasts feel weird and achy and my nipples hurt
- I feel sick in the morning but I havn't thrown up, it feels a bit like motion sickness/travel sickness
- I have a weird feeling in my tummy abit like fullness or bloating but I can't tell if it's my digestive system or my uterus or whatever

- I've also been getting flu type symptoms such as a sore throat but I don't think thats related, I think I'm just getting a cold.

might I also add that I am in mid-cycle at the moment so I was wondering if I coiuld just have these symtoms because I'm ovulateing?

please help me... I'm really worried, I havn't taken a pregnancy test because I don't think I need to, it's only been 5 days and it was protect sex anyway? am I just being paraniod... because I really don't wana be pregnant at the age of 17!

If you had protected sex the chances of you being pregnant are 100 to 1 (at least that's what they say on the condom packet). Personally I'd say don't even fret it (just your brain working over time because you know sex is how babies are made LOL)... but having said that the only way to put your mind at rest is wait til your period is due and if it doesn't turn up then take a test. Until then just chill

yeah, I supose I'm just being paranoid lol... but I tent to worry to much all the time anyway about various things. I'm probably not pregnant but I guess I just needed some reasurance. thanks for posting ^_^

hey faine

i know how you feel! i just got over this scare myself, same situation really, we had "protected" sex, or so we thought, boy did we worry... anyway its really best not to worry, becuase that can make your period late, and then you freak even more, mine was a week late becuase i worried so much i think, and needless to say we stressed out about it (it finally showed up thank god)

but the advice here is right, just chill

when you worry also it can cause the symptoms of pregnancy like feeling sick and that really weird feeling in your stomach (this was the more disturbing thing for me)

Don't worry! The more you think you are pregnant the more symptoms your going to get!! Just relax and if your still worried take a test!! xx

 

[ablaze]

the chances of you having symptoms so early are auite unlikely too x

Don't worry hon, I highly doubt your pregnant. Like the other girls said, the fact that you had very protected sex and its only been 5 days since you had sex, then the chances are slim to none. with my pregnancies my symptoms tended to start showing up a few days before my period was due.
