Confidential Guidance: What to Do If You Think You're Pregnant (15-Year-Old)

Question
hi,
im a 15 year old and i think im pregnant.  i'm four days late, which is unusual,and i
always feel as though i want to vomit. i've been feeling like that since the day after i had sex. what's worst is that i had unprotected sex with a man who is almost 21. i haven't told my mother and i don't know what to do. i'm afraid to tell her, i don't know  what i should do. i saw your advices that you gave to other people on-line and i was hoping if you could give me some advice on what i should do.
                                                             thanks

Answer
It would be unlikely for you to be having morning sickness already. Chances are that the feeling like your going to throw up is anxiety and nerves. It can be very stressful to not know if you are pregnant or not. And there are several things that can cause you to be late or skip a period. Things such as starting or stopping a medication, loosing or gaining weight, being sick, over tired, under stress and more.
I am not sure why you are having sex with someone who is over 18, since it is against the law, and he can go to jail for this. I would reccomend in the future you stick with guys who are under 18, until you, yourself are 18. And that you use birthcontrol every time. Not just a condom but also a back up method.
You really need to take a pregnancy test before you talk to anyone. Most of the planned parenthood clinics and carenet clinics will provide one for free, or at a large discount to someone who is under 18. They can also provide you with counseling depending on the resualt of the test.
