How great are my chances

**kaat** · 12-16-2009 09:08 PM

Okay, so my boyfriend and have been having safe sex for a while. We use condoms all the time. He makes sure once he's hard to keep himself covered or not go near me down there until the condom is on. He has never ejaculated inside me. He always pulls out. I am not on birth control.

Okay so I kind of forgot where my period came exactly. But figured it was on a wednesday somewhere the ending of november. I haven't gotten my period yet but I'm irregular. I mean my period has never been early, its always a week late. Or sometimes i skip a month.

So mquestion is what is the chance of me being pregnant now?

i think today was the i should have gotten my period . But would I have had morning sickness already if i was pregnant? Tender breasts? Constant urination? What color is pee when you're pregnant anyways?

I feel the symptoms of my period though. little cramps, and grouchiness...

I have my doubts you are pregnant. But, I'm guessing, if you had it Wednesday toward the end of November, you are not quite due yet. Maybe, everybody is definitely different.

PMS and early pregnancy symptoms are very similar. You are probably having some PMS symptoms. Take a test towards the end of next week if you haven't gotten it yet.

BTW, pregnancy urine is the same color as non pregnancy urine.

thanks. I mean, I know chances are slim, but still. I discovered one of my friends might by pregnant and she always uses protection, but that just set a trigger. I wanted to know when my period was and i kind of panicked...

No worries. It is easy to panic if you aren't ready for it.

Kudos to you for practicing safe sex though! Keep at it!!!

According to a recent study, withdrawal is as reliable a birth-control method as condoms.

And no method is 100% effective.

To keep you from future moments of panic, get a cheap little calendar and write the dates you start and stop on it...then you will know if you should have started. I have to write my start and stop dates for my Nuvaring on the calendar, or I'd never remember

Not according to my urologist. But I wouldn't recommend this form of birth control to men who still want children.

I would really look in askance at that. There are studies and then there are Studies. Probably a lot of variables in there. If the woman is aware and carefully monitors her ovualtion times and actually has a regular enough cycle to track accurately, this information combined with withdrawl may work. But I wouldn't risk it personally.

We've got too many people who are entirely too iffy in their understanding of their bodies and fertility as well as uses of conception control, I wouldn't put withdrawl out there are a really good method. Most pregnancies associated with the pill are the result of improper use. A woman who can't handle taking one pill a day, or planning ahead with other methods, shouldn't rely just on her partner pulling out in time. Too risky.

I'm hoping kaat is saying that her boyfriend WITH the condom on never ejaculates inside her and pulls out before hand. That way should be pretty safe. It's a rare chance the condom breaks and a rare chance of it not catching the pre-ejaculate before pulling out. Sounds pretty safe to me but as written NOTHING is 100%.

There are some early pregnancy tests if you feel bold. Read up on some and their accuracy.
