Okay, So I am 15, and my boyfriend of almost 6 months is 18. I am completely in love with him, he makes me feel completely special, and he feels the same about me. We are both terrified that I am pregnant, because I have most of the symptoms. How can I tell for sure that I am pregnant? and how will I tell my crazy parents? I am worried they will kick me out, but I have 3 older sister and two of them got pregnant at the age of 19. I took a home pregnacy test, but it said negative, but i saw a commercial that said you are supposed to take it when you are supposed to get your period. I got my period earlier this month, but we recently thought theat i was pregnant about a week ago, and my period always jumps around. also i read you can get your period while your pregnant, and i never have a heavy period anyway. Help please!!!

Also, we decided we dont want to get an abortion if I am pregnant, becuase we are both against abortion. Adoption would be an option, but I fear that I wouldnt want to give up my baby afte I gave birth and saw him/her. I'm planning on moving in with him when i graduate anyway. and he is joining the army next year.

The hCG hormone that the test looks for doubles every few days. If you get a negative using first morning pee two weeks after a "period" came or was supposed to come, the chances of pregnancy are very slim. You would be "6 weeks" at this stage. For women with regular 28 day cycles, that would also be the time you expect to ovulate the next cycle. Are you using good birth control? It's possible your signs are from hormones that mark the start of ovulation, which can be a year or two after the start of menstruation.

I've had my period since I was 11. It usually comes in the begining of the month, and for the past.. from january to april it cam e in the end, then from then til now it came in the begining. My guess would be that I got pregnant after I had my period this month. becuase it only takes 5-8 days for the egg to go through the follical tube and plant into the uterus.

Yes, if you have been menstruating for 4 years, you have probably been ovulating for quite some time. You must have a 30 or 31 day cycle, with ovulation most likely on cycle day 16 or 17. If your last period started June 1st, then perhaps Friday June 18th would have been high risk, as well as several of the preceding days. That would have given you the start of signs of pregnancy the middle of last week, with the earliest sensible time to run a pregnancy test next weekend July 3rd. Use first morning pee, dip method. Tell us your signs, if you wish, and come back to tell us how the test goes. GL!

Some sign are, i've been nauseus, but mostly at night, or after I eat something. I've had to pee more than usual. My breats hurt a lot, and have grown a bit bigger. my emotions are crazy, I cried today because my boyfriend died in mario and we were really far in the game so i was upset. but i was fine in the next couple minutes. I kept making up excuses to my boyfriend saying it could be anything and im not pregnant. im not sure though. so wea re going to go to a free clinic and get me tested there because we think that their tests may be more reliable.

These are pretty convincing signs. You have not said what kind of birth control you have been using. If it was next to none, and you had s_x in your fertile window, I would say the chances of pregnancy are pretty high. The free clinic will give you the same kind of urine test that you could take at home, but that's OK. If it is negative you would probably have to go back a week later. The only kind of test that is more reliable this early is an expensive quant_tative blood test. Just waiting a week will give you the same answer using a urine test. Don't forget the prenatal pills, important in the first weeks to minimize birth defects. GL!
