"Am I pregnant?" Options

[RAWRstephishere]

Ive noticed that there is a lot of topics about pregnancy lately.

If you used a condom and birth control, you probably arent pregant.
Your period may be late because your stressed out about it.

And heres a thing that may be too logical. And Im not trying to sound like your mom, but..
Dont have sex.Or get even close to sex if you arent fully ready to have a child.

Calm your horny selfs down.

forgive me if i cross the line with this, mods.... you barely know me, and i don't really know any of the posters here, but... i can't bite my tongue on this. with the spur of "omg pregnant" posts that have popped up, this needs to be said.


if you're 15, 16, even 17 years old and having sex with your "special guy", then approach your parent(s) and ask *preferably* mom about getting on the pill.
seriously.

i say talk to your mom, because.. well, dads will freak out waaaay more than mom will. (in most general situations)

but if you can't come to your mother and say "mom... johnny and i are having sex / talking about having sex / thinking about having sex / planning on having sex, and i'd like to be surely protected... can we go to the clinic so i can get the pill"....
how in the world are you going to approach them with the P-bomb if it happens?

your parents may freak out when you tell them, pretty blatantly that you are indeed, if not already, going to be having sex, but... don't you think they'd freak out MORE if you approach them with "i'm pregnant"?

That's like a slap to the face for asian parents.

I second that. They'd feel like they've been slapped in the face and I'd feel that slap HARD.
