19 years old and possibly prego... :/ please help!
So me and my boyfriend live together and we used to be very careful about sex, I went off birth control back in november and since then my periods have all been normal and like clockwork, until now. I was supposed to hit my period on monday but it didn't come, I've been feeling sick all week and my boobs are very sore, also I have been getting heartburn though I don't eat spicy foods, and the lower part of my tummy has hardened and just feels weird. Am I going crazy or am I really pregnant? I took two at home tests this week but both were negative...is it too early? We have sex almost every day and like I said we have started getting pretty careless about protection, I also read somewhere that sperm can stay alive for up to 3 days after intercourse, is this true? Please someone help me!
You very well could be pregnant...The home test are not always accurate...If possible, see your doctor and have him run some test.....You`ve got a few of the signs of an early pregnacy............and as far as I know...sperm live for only a few short hours.....not days.
You could be but it is a little early yet. Wait a couple of weeks and take another test. Some women even have to take blood test to make sure because the urine test do not work for them. Sperm can stay alive inside a woman for 1-5 days depending on how close to ovulation a woman is. Hope that answers your questions. Best of luck to you.
