Is she pregnant? help o.o -
January 12th 2009, 04:18 PM
I don't know if my girlfriend is pregnant or not, and we're both worried out of our minds about it... i seriously don't know what to do. It wouldn't be that bad if it weren't for our situation.
The situation in a nutshell: long distance relationship... 600 miles long. I'm 17 and shes 16.
What happened: I went to visit her over Christmas break, and we had sex. Given, every time it was with a condom, BUT we put it in a few times without it just to see what it felt like (we were both virgins), and there's the whole issue about precum?
Now shes experiencing some symptoms, and we're both scared to death that she might be pregnant, but also she could be on her period? She said shes getting symptoms like, well here's what she said:
"My boobies get sore sometimes, they feel bigger [Although not so much now..], Acne -.-, I feel fatter- but i dont know if thats a symptom, I feel dizzy sometimes, sick to my tummy, headaches occasionally"
The times that we had sex were about 7-12 days ago, depending on what day it was that she MIGHT have concieved.
We have no clue if its just her period, or if shes pregnant, and its about to drive me nuts. I guess i just want someone to tell me the chances, how big is the chance? Does it look like she really might be? and what are we supposed to do if she is?

To take an over the counter pregnancy test you need to wait fourteen days from the last time you had sex. But she could go to the doctors now, and they can do a blood test. Other then that there is no other way to know if she is pregnant or not. No amount of pregnancy “symptoms” can tell.

The only way for her to determine if she is pregnant is for her to take a pregnancy test. There is a chance that precum can get someone pregnant. We can't tell you if she is pregnant or not. She needs to take a test.

There is nothing you can do but wait. Lizzie and Brittney basically summed it up. When is she due to get her next period? I really think that you should encourage her to buy a test and take it when she can.

She said around the 16-17, but for some reason her periods are erratic anyway, a while back the doctor said she may have a hard time getting pregnant because of it.
Is there anything i can do to help support her if she is pregnant? I mean, neither of us have much money right now, i have to take money out of my savings just to go see her...

Don't worry about what to do about a pregnancy until you've confirmed that she's pregnant. It'll just stress the both of you out and probably make this situation worse.
Wait until she's due for her period and see if she gets it. If not, ask her to take a pregnancy test and see what it says and then go from there.
The symptoms that she's having could also be PMS, meaning that her period is due soon. Just try to hang in there until she either gets her period or she can take a test.
