I'm 18 and I had sex with my boyfriend on monday. We didn't use protection (yes, I deeply regret) and now my period is a week late.
Needless to say, my mom is freaking out really really bad and is stressing me a lot and saying all kinds of things ( I never told her when I began my sex life)
It's not the first time I have unprotected sex with him and he always assured me that nothing got inside me.. you know.. but now I really don't know why I'm late.
If my mom finds out I'm pretty sure she will throw me away from the house (we had these kind of conversations in the past)
Do you think I might be pregnant? I've been really stressed lately and I heard that this can be a cause for coming late
Note: this last week I had a few normal period pains, sore breasts, etc but no blood

Hi scaredkitten

We will not answer ANY questions about pregnancy fear or anxiety in our direct services from users who are not pregnant or who are not or have not otherwise been directly involved with an actual pregnancy.

Please do not post this kind of question. If you are seeing this text, and your thread is locked, it is because you have posted this kind of question.

We CAN and WILL talk about things like:
• choosing and using a method or methods of contraception for any future sexual activity

• making sexual choices that suit your own needs, abilities and limitations, including your own readiness for certain possible risks
• help locating or using emergency contraception if and when you have had a pregnancy risk
• discussing options with a real, existing pregnancy, and help finding and accessing those options, such as abortion services and pre-natal care, or discussing feelings or concerns about a past pregnancy
