freaking out about possibly becoming pregnant

i'm probably just being excessively anxious, but i'm just looking for some reassurance as to the chances of pregnancy

i'm 18 and i had unprotected sex on day 8-12 of my cycle. on day 8-9, he cummed inside me but i took a morning after pill on day 9. we had unprotected sex again each day after that until day 12, but he pulled out. i then took another morning after pill on day 13, which is today (a bit after the 72 hours window, counting from day 9).

i usually have slightly longer cycles (30-32 days) but still i had unprotected sex during my relatively fertile days.

obviously i might not be pregnant yet, and even if i was i wouldn't be having any symptoms. but just from all this information, what are the chances i'm or would become pregnant??

thanks sooooo much!!!!

if you are  honestly that worried about getting pregnant I would suggest stop using the plan b and use condoms if you take out 3 to for days after sex you could have already had plenty of sperm waiting for your egg....and the risk of health problems to your many if you do begin pregnant it is way easier to just put a condom on

It's impossible to say what it all really is. Even if you've never had ovulation spotting before, it can still occur randomly and at any time. It could be implantation, but at the same time I have my doubts. If you have a regular cycle, you would likely just be ovulating then.

today, 7/2, about a week and a half after the unprotected sex, and 2 weeks and a half after my last period started, i noticed some spotting (the usual, light pink and not very much). i usually have long cycles, so i'm assuming this is ovulation bleeding as it is occuring midcycle... i have not had any cramps or any other symptoms recently.

the thing is that i've never ever had ovulation/midcycle bleeding before. i did take two morning after pills this cycle, so is that causing this ovulation bleeding?? or... i'm too scared to think this but is it possible that this is implantation bleeding?????

Really depends on if you were ovulating or not. Overall it's impossible to say, you just have to wait and see.

But the chances shouldn't be that high right?

Very serious. Pulling out offers NO protection, as pre-ejaculation which can still get you pregnant. This is always present when a male is aroused. You're not only fertile for one day. For the week leading up to ovulation you're considered fertile. This is because sperm can survive for 1 weeks in perfect conditions inside a female. You don't have to only have sex when you ovulate to get pregnant. This is why it's also possible to get pregnant having unprotected sex on your period. If you ovulate soon after it, you can get pregnant. There is NEVER  a safe time for unprotected sex. And as I stated earlier, the pill is only 85% effective. I know many ladies who have conceived even after using it.

Very possible??? Are you serious?? I mean it wasn't exactly during my fertile days, he pulled out most of the times, and I took morning after pills...?? And the chances of pregnancy aren't even that high if I didn't take the pills and he didn't pull out....

Ahhh this just makes me freak out so much more

Very possible. The morning after pill is NOT a substitute for birth control or actual protection, and shouldn't be relied on to prevent pregnancy. (It has around an 85% success rate, and this lowers the longer you take to actually use it---it also is not recommended to be used more than 2x a year) Wait till your next cycle is due, and take a pregnancy test with first morning urine. If you don't want to be pregnant, you need to be using actual protection at all times.
