Am I Pregnant?

Since we get a gazillion threads a week started by this infamous question:

"Am I pregnant"?

Here is where you can voice your concerns of that lovely little question.

So, first things first.......you have a hunch you might be pregnant. What's the first step?


Thanks mi_ana for the sticky idea. We'll give it a try, if it's an inactive sticky we'll de-sticky it.

Remember, be nice. No question is never dumb!

You might be pregnant IF:
1) You are sexually active
2) You are sexually active and use no means of protection
3) You are on birthcontrol and forgot to take a pill
4) The condom broke

Common questions:

Q. Can I get pregnant from Pre-cum or even if he doesn't "get off"?

A. Yes, you can. Pre-cum is still cum. It contains all the little fishies (sperm) that regular cum does.

Q. I am late for my period. Am I pregnant?

A. Possibly.. Especially if you have engaged in unprotected sexual acts.

Q. Can I get pregnant even if he doesn't penetrate me but he got close to my "area"?

A. Yes. Although it is not very likely one of those super sperm could have still made it to fertilize the egg.

Q. He only stuck it in once.. Can I still get pregnant?

A. Yes it is very possible.



Early Signs and symptoms of pregnancy

*Missed period - The majority of women miss their period once they are pregnant because the endometrium ( lining of the uterus ) is needed to keep the baby in place. Although some women experience bleeding throughout their whole pregnancy it is not very common

* Frequent urination - The pregnancy hormone Hcg causes your kidneys to work faster hence why it is very common for pregnant women to pee alot even before there is a 7 pound baby sitting on their bladder.

*Throwing up - The most imfamous pregnancy symptom of them all by far is morning sickness. The cause of morning sickness is 100% known but if you are throwing up and have had unprotected sex this could be more than just your common flu.

*Fatigue - Making a baby is extremely hard work. It makes your body work over time and all the new hormones can be a shock to your body. So you may end up sleeping like you partied like a rock star the night before.

*Headaches - The hormones are a bit much and take a little bit to get used to. You may experience headaches.

*Breast Tenderness - Not exactly sure on this one... but your boobies may hurt if you are indeed Preggo.

*Cramps - During the first few weeks of your pregnancy you may experience MILD cramping. These will feel somewhat but not exactly like period cramps.. This could be because of implantation.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you experience one or more of these symptoms you may be pregnant... Even if you do not experience them but you have had sex without protection, until your period comes *(or even if it does)* you still may be pregnant.

How to find out for sure if you are pregnant

If indeed you believe you are pregnant. There are quite a few ways to determine if you really are. They are as follows:

Take a at home pregnancy test. If you do take this test and there is a positive or two pink lines (EVEN IF YOU CAN BARELY SEE IT) If it is there, you are probably pregnant unless you are taking BC containing HCG.

Go to Planned Parenthood or your local health clinic and get a pregnancy test there.

Go to your doctor and ask for a pregnancy test.

Get an ultrasound at the doctor.



If anyone else has any other FAQ that I forgot to post or any other ideas to add in here, just make a post.

If you are someone who is questioning whether you are pregnant or not and have more questions please post in this topic and keep in this topic. This is what it was made for   .

You said everything perfectly! Hope they actually read it when they wander in here. It pretty much says everything.  

Thank you. I am almost sure that I have left something out though... Oh well I will surely think of what that something is later

Here's a quiz . . . take it if you think your preggo. It would know better than us. because we arent going to know if your preggo or not ... were no doctors... just preggo girlies

I could find it NO WHERE ONLINE, that if it barely shows up your pregnant. Trust me when I had that happen I didn't know what to think. You see the picture and they both show up clear. (plus I was in denile) lol so I didn't think I was pregnant. Trust me the read out ones where better. Then again after doing 2 of those saying PREGNANT I was still in denile till I went to the doctors and they did a fourth one and she told me I was pregnant.

Anywas point being, TWO LINES ONE BARLEY SHOWS YOUR PREGNANT.
(I wasnt on birth control)
