Unfortunately you won't be able to find out if you're pregnant until you have missed your next period. I know it's a long wait and may seem unbearable. Know what the best birth control is? Not having sex at all. Is all the stress over thinking you are pregnant worth it? Please consider this as you wait until next month.

The chances of you being pregnant depends on your own body. Let's go back to the basics of science. A typical woman has a 28 day cycle (some more or less). On day 14 an egg is released and if there are little guys swimming (sperm) a conception is likely to occur. If this is your cycle then because you just finished your period you haven't ovulated this month. This is not a tell all though, some women are very fertile and it doesn't matter what time of the month they have sex. Some women want to get pregnant and have sex at all the right times and cannot get pregnant. Calm down and wait. I wish I had better advice and I know waiting is hard. Hang in there.

Let us know how you are,

Heather

Dear *ME*

It's probably way too early to tell if you're pregnant or not. Since you just ended your period 3 days ago, chances are you were not ovulating this weekend. (That's when your body releases an egg).

If you do miss your period, you can go to a pregnancy center. Look one up near you at this site:

www.optionline.org

They give FREE, CONFIDENTIAL tests and they also have information on programs to help you.

The MOST IMPORTANT thing you need to know though, is that ANYTIME you have sex, you RISK getting pregnant. The ONLY 100% effective b/c is abstinence.

I do realize that abstaining from sex would be/is really hard once you have started having sex. However, your last few words are what stand out the most to me -

I CAN'T BE PREGANT!!!!!!!!!!

If you would just think about that a while - and discuss it with your boyfriend.

What would you do? Get an abortion? Do you know what that does to a woman? Even a woman that doesn't want to be pregnant has a very difficult time dealing with it. Read some of the posts on the other page - Post Abortion Healing Support Board - and see what that does to a person. It's not good. So, if you can't afford to be pregnant, please stop having sex.

I'm only telling you truth.

Hugs, Kris
