by Grace
(Rockford il)

I'm 15. My boyfriend and I had unprotected sex everyday I ovulated. I know stupid move. But now I think I am pregnant. Three tests say no but I have every symptom but a miss period. Well actually my period I got a week later than normal and my periods are always regular but it didn't really seem like a period.

I am tired all the time, cannot stay awake in class. I feel like vomiting all the time and I have terrible heart burn. My mom says it's all in my head but I think I am pregnant. I have weight gain, small crap about a week or so after sex, fatigue, and random headaches. What should I do please help?

Hi Grace,

I understand how you feel wondering if you are pregnant and feeling every symptom possible! I have been there myself.

Pregnancy tests do get false negative answers, but in general they are very sensitive. If you're still getting negative tests but feel you are pregnant, I would recommend making an appointment with your doctor to see about getting a blood test done. This will let you know for sure if you're pregnant or not.

Sometimes stress can cause ovulation to be delayed and your period to be late. Stress can also cause weird things to happen, like an unusually light or heavy period.

If you feel like you're pregnant, it's not going to hurt anything to eat well and take prenatal vitamins. Get rest when you need to. Take a nap when you get home from school and before you do your homework if you can. Go to bed at a good time at night so you can get through the day without falling asleep ;)

Go ahead and schedule an appointment with your doctor. You can request a blood test and even an ultrasound scan - so that you'll know for sure and can either relax and know you're not pregnant or make sure you're taking good care of yourself for your baby.

Let me know if I can help with anything else.
