In her defense, a lot of people - especially her age - have irregular cycles and a lot of women don't show any big signs until later in pregnancy. I know I didn't find out until two months in because of stomach pains. I just assumed it was stress and my irregular cycle the first month.
Emilyann, as bad as you think the situation might be, you aren't definitely sure if you ARE pregnant or not. It sounds like you're kind of stressing yourself out about this - which could be causing your period to have disappeared.
So, for now, relax. I can't give you a definite on this, but if you live in the US, they have planned parenthoods and free clinics where you can just walk in and do a test for free. They'll also talk about your options, if you are pregnant, as well as birth control, if you aren't.
If you don't live in the US, I'd still maybe check to see if they have anything like that around you? I'm not too familiar with other places, sorry.
If that's not an option or you actually are pregnant, I'd honestly sit down and talk to your mom or some family member about it. It's scary, I know, and you can expect them to be mad at first. But in the end, you need support and they will probably be there for you. I know telling my mother I was pregnant was my worst nightmare. I held off for two weeks, just trying to figure out a way to do it. Eventually, she came up to me with a pregnancy test and I admitted it then. She was mad for a day or two, but calmed down. And when she saw I needed her to be there for me, she definitely stepped up the plate.
No parent wants their kid to become an adult and go through pregnancy so young, I'm sure. But at the end of it, they're typically a great support system and they'll stick by you. So, if you can, I'd try talking to someone.
I hope everything works out for you though.
