You’re much more likely to get an accurate result if you wait a week after your expected period before testing. ChaCha!

Information for all my ladies who think their pregnant?

Q: I just wanted to tell you my story, I was a virgin for a long time and ‘tried’ to have sex for the first time and felt very uncomfortable and asked my ‘ex’ to stop and he did. But I learned a lesson i think everyone should know…..we never finished having sex if you will, but all I kept on thinking about is what if somehow i got pregnant? I started reading more about it and realzied there are somethings women really don’t know. I went and got pregnacy tests and a blood test to make sure there were no mistakes. 1. you can get false negatives so don’t always count on the first test2. even if you use a condom, if you use any lubricate with it, it can make the condom ‘leaky’ and you can still get pregnant3. my doctor told me a girl came in and had her full blown period for 7 months and somehow she was 7 months pregnant, dont’ ask me how but just cause you get your period doesn’t mean your in the clear. I read another story a women got her period for 4 months and was pregnant the whole time5. I’ts your body, your right, be careful with it.I learned all this cause I always thought how can someone not know their pregnant & now i understand…and I feel like an idiot for not knowing before.My advice if your having sex, even if you get your period and your not planning for a baby, then you should still take pregnancy tests regullary just in case. I’m not sure if this helped anyone but i thought it was good to know.me and my boyfriend broke up because he stole money from me, was aggressive sexually, and left me for a rich girl, I never wanted anything to do with him. A child is a beautiful blessing, just make sure your in love.

A: it is very nice that you decided to post this..alot of women/girls do not know this information..sorry to hear about your previous relationship.. it’s good you didn’t go all the way with him..

my g/f is pregnant but cheated on me! possibility I’m the father?

Q: ok this is the 2nd time asking this and I have a small bit more information so I wanted to post it again! thanks for everyones helpok I’ve never really turned to anything like this but I’m confused and upset and need as Much help as possible and appreciate itok so I found out my girlfriend was pregnant yesterday and a million thoughts have ran through my head since I also found out she had been at a party got drunk and cheated on me! so heres where I need the help I had unprotected sex with her on the 17th of sept. on the 20th of sept. she got drunk and had sex with another guy while wearing a condom then I had unprotected sex with her again the 23rd of sept. she did an at home test on october 5th thinking that she may have missed her period and it was positive so she went to the ER where she had bloodwork, an ultra sound, and sonogram then on the 7th went for bloodwork again at a doctors office and then she was told that she could only be pregnant by the other guy based on what they found! she says she doesn’t remember what they said her conception date was and is supposed to be finding out! but going based off of my projections of when her last perid would have started and when she should have been ovulateing and all I wopuld have thought that my experience with her on the 17th was just as likely if not more than his would be! she isn’t great about keeping up with her period dates and things but shes convinced 100% it isn’t mine and its his cause she says the doctors told her it was and they said it wasn’t possible to be mine the thing is I would have thought maybe she just wanted to be with the guy but she is telling me she wants to be with me still. how accurate are the doctors on their dates and can it really be that positive that its not mine?? what does the bloodwork and sonogram and ultrasound accually show??its now oct. 10th/11th(late at nite not sleeping) and I sorta want to believe that its possible its mine because of my understanding on things they couldn’t rule that out! I’m in desperate need cause truth be known I want a kid and have for a while now and I would be the happiest and luckiest guy ever if it were mine aside from the fact of how it had to happen! please help me to the best you can and its really appreciatedok heres whats he has told me now thats new_____________________________________________________at the er they got her conception date from her blood work! can someone please tell me what they would be going by in her blood?? I know that hcg levels ise after implantation but since the amount of days after conception could be what like 7 to 12 days and hcg isn’t detected by pregnancy tests til after implantation how can they use that to get an accurate conception date? I don’t think tis possible and she is still lieing to me! she keeps telling me that shes had a baby before and she knows what shes talking about and i’m wrong but its not like the last time she had this same situation she knew who the father was 100% for sure! also she says there is a dna test they can do between 10 and 12 weeks that is safe compared to the one they do later in pregnancy can anyone tell me about that? I just truely believe this baby is mine and as I’ve said I want it to bevery bad so any information is appreciated so much! thank you oh and one more note.. the er appointment was the 5th and the hormone level or whatever in her blood jumped up alot between then and the 7th when she went to the doctor! thanks againlet me change this just a little! I want to be the father because I want a baby and I thought she was pregnant by me at first! if I am the father I will def. deal with it and give it a chance for my child! and if ti doesn’t work I will fight for and win full custody for many reasons! if its not then I’m done all together cause theres not a chance in hell it will work! I complately understand the common sense things on this trust me! I just want the answers to the questions though not on my mental stability by still being with her or how much of a slut she is so I truely appreciate the ones with helpful useful info and for everyone else I’m sorry but I came for help with my questions not the stability in my life… and as far as the last period.. I’m pretty sure it started around the 2nd which to me makes it seem like mine again1 more thing.. if it helps her hcg level went from around 500 on the 5th to 1100 on the 7th

A: She’s making that up – no doctor could possibly pinpoint that accurate of a conception date and tell her it’s not yours – they could be sued for that. For whatever reason, she doesn’t want you to think it’s yours and it very well is yours.Go make babies with someone who isn’t a drunken easy slut – some nice girl who wants to make babies with you.

How can I convince her she’s not pregnant/okay?

Q: Okay, long story short: I have a very close friend of mine who had something very unfortunate happen to her. She trusted someone that well.. obviously couldn’t be trusted. And she was at a party and when she was out cold, he took advantage of her. This happened almost three months ago, in the beginning of July. I think she had been off her birth control for a week or two before the incident, unfortunately. The following day, she began a normal five day period, if I remember right. Also, the week following the incident (out of severe depression), she did not eat much; starving herself for the most part. She lost about ten pounds, dropping from 95 to 85 pounds. She has a very small build, being only about five feet tall. But still, this weight drop was bad. Immediately after this happened, she started her birth control (Loestrin 24) again in paranoia. And ever since it happened, she has been in tears almost everyday at the fear she is pregnant. Her periods have come at the expected times (3, including the one after the incident), and albeit abnormal, they have still come. I say abnormal because they were shorter and lighter, without a real constant flow (by her words). But a reason I can think they would be like that to me of course, would be the birth control, no? And also throwing in the fact that her periods have never been quite normal. Since the incident, she’s taken four pregnancy tests, all negative. She took them after her periods, on the chance that it was actually a missed period and the bleeding she was having was just her body cleaning itself. She took two after one month, and two after two months; again, they were all negative without a doubt. With her paranoia being so bad, she told me she is afraid she’s had some symptoms, but the symptoms she seems to have could also be occurring do to stress and depression. And I have also read that sometimes women can convince their bodies that they’re pregnant, mimicking the symptoms of pregnancy without actually being pregnant.There is also another thing, since then she has kinda well.. been drinking quite heavily out of depression. Which I know can wreck havoc on a woman’s cycle and whatnot.Now that the back-story explaining this all is out of the way, we get down to the real question. I personally, with all the things that have happened: negative tests, the periods, lack of serious symptoms, etc., don’t think she could be pregnant. I also do not think she could be healthy enough to be, on the count that with her weight loss and the alcohol. Since then she has gained some weight back, but only a couple pounds (her weight fluctuates quite often) from me pleading with her to eat.With her next period being tomorrow, she has been again panicking that her period just won’t come. She’s the one that kind of asked me to post this on here and ask. Is there anything I can do to help her and show her that its unlikely she is pregnant? I know there’s the slim chance that she is pregnant, but just from research on the matter and reading medical sites, I don’t think its big. I’ve told her the only way she would know for sure is to get a blood test but.. again just the fact that this happened to her has ruined her, I’m the only one she speaks to about it. Is there a huge risk that she is actually pregnant? I hope with all my being that the answer is a big fat no but, I guess she just needs to know third party answers. Any feedback would be great, thank you all in advance.

A: Here is some advice that neither one of you may like. GET HER TO A DOCTOR NOW! ( no I’m not trying to yell) There are chances of false negative readings. All that you have described needs to be addressed by a Medical Professional. The stress alone is enough to cause her to miss her cycle and if she has turned to alchol that is not good.Pregnancy symptoms vary from woman to woman and while some are generally the same across the board, many are open to interpetation. I understand that it is hard to talk to someone, anyone after what she has been through and I am glad that she has you and you care so very much. Let her know that. Tell her you are worried and that you will be with her every step of the way. If she is actually pregnant, then she can get the guy on a majority of charges not the least being rape. Even still if she is not than she needs to make a police report even after all this time ( is she is with child, they can do a DNA to prove he is the sperm donor).Please get her help. I will keep you both in my prayers.
