Should i take a pregnancy test? and what if i am..?

[crazykate]

Heres my situation, me and my boyfriend had sex for the first time 16 days ago. we used a condom but it was a pretty old one and it kept slipping up as if it was too big. It lasted around 10-20 minutes but he didn't cum. ive been really worried ever since and ive started getting nausea in the morning and sometimes just out of the blue, so yesterday i was supposed to start my period but i didnt.. now im really scared. but sometimes my period arent regular.

so my first questions are should i take a pregnancy test? how much do they cost?how many days do you have to wait before theyre acurate?

also, if i am pregnant.. what do i do? i cant tell my mom because shes literaly horrible to me and she wouldnt help me at all. can i get an abortion without my parents knowing? yes, an abortion is what im going to pick so dont try and change my mind. i was also thinking of telling my stepmom because i think she could help me. how do i tell her?

If you had a condom on and he didn't cum in you then you probably aren't pregnant I'm sure the stress is just making your period late.

But if you want to take a test to ease your mind, you could take one now and get an accurate result (14 days after unprotected sex, or once you've missed you period).

The condom slipping is a good sign that it is the wrong size. A lot of people buy larger than needed condoms.

Nausea is a sign of stress and it is more likely you would experience morning sickness a month or two into the pregnancy, not the first 7-10 days after implantation.

I would take a test if your period doesn't come in a few days.

alright thanks guys (: im really hoping its stress... I'll buy a test. Also ive lost 15 pounds in the last month could it be that?

X pounds is significant weight-loss, but it could also be stressed or a change of eating habits. Do you drink enough water?

Some weight-loss can occur in early pregnancy, but I doubt it is that much. Ideally you should lose one or two pounds a week so the most you'd want to lose is 8 pounds.

also, if i am pregnant.. what do i do? i cant tell my mom because shes literaly horrible to me and she wouldnt help me at all. can i get an abortion without my parents knowing? yes, an abortion is what im going to pick so dont try and change my mind. i was also thinking of telling my stepmom because i think she could help me. how do i tell her?

It would appear that you can and the doctor would have to respect your right to confidentiality. .

The best way is face-to-face and understand that she may get angry and tell your father. She may also accept it, but it is a stressful situation and there is no guarantee how she may initially take it. However, I would point out you are trusting her and need help as to what to do.

I think the chances of you being pregnant are very slim, but just in case, do take one
