abortion

Look, you're on the pill and that's what? 99% effective? You've also used the morning after pill. I doubt you have anything to really worry about. Anyway, you've still got one week to go. Just wait it out. It's not like you really have a choice anyway.

As for your boyfriend, you should tell him now. Best he take some responsibility for the incident, as he's involved as well.

Condom slipped, eh? Sounds like somebody needs to take more care in the application.
 
My suggestion is to try and not stress since that will help to further delay the onset of your next period.
As for the abortion part---it's your choice. I don't have much experience or knowledge in the area to share with you.
Take care.
 
If you're that worried about it, take a pregnancy test. I was worried about that a few years ago, as I had just gone off the Pill. I took a pregnancy test and it turned out negative. I got my period the next day- it was delayed due to stress over worrying about it.
 
Just a suggestion, get a boy friend who's cock is big enough to keep a condom on. Or have him try a finger protector.

:cool:
 
just some advice... usually condoms don't break/slip/etc... if it does and more than once, it's probably user error than an imperfect condom... so, tell him, teach him, in whatever way possible to use one right! good luck :)
 
((((((HUGS))))))

Uh- I have no words to help. I'll never be in your shoes.
 
Unfortunately, something very similar to this happened to a friend-in-law of mine.

Her bf's parents were extremely strict Catholics and he ended up siding with his parents (who called HER a whore for getting pregnant, despite the fact that their son was the one who empregnated her) and eventually he left her because she lost her job and his parents convinced her that he couldn't afford to support her and the baby on his salary!

Anyway, you HAVE to tell him. It's his baby, after all.

If you are not ready for parenthood, I would ask that you consider adoption as an alternative to abortion.

About abortions...
The actual abortion procedure will only take about 5 minutes. Most clinics ask for you to get an ultrasound first and bring them the results before you make the appointment (the fetus has to be at least 6 weeks old I think). You can try the yellow pages for clinics, or you can go to your family doctor or walk in doctor. He/she should be able to refer you to someone and answer your questions.

If you need someone to talk to, don't hesitate to PM me.
 
Well, ultimately it's your decision what you want to do. I know this is the politically incorrect thing to say, but I am totally against abortion. Please please consider giving the baby up for adoption.

take care:rose: and good luck.
 
Wait a couple days and take another test. Or go to a local Planned Parenthood clinic and get a test from them. It might be a false positive. You never know.
 
If i understand your post correctly the you took the morning after pill after the condom slipped the second time and there was a two week period between the first slip and the second.

My suggestion is to go to your doctor, explain exactly what happened and have the doctor do a pregnancy test. It's possible that the morning after pill combined with the birth control pills has caused your hormone levels to be all out of whack and given a false positive on a home pregnancy test.

If that's not the case and you are pregnant, your doctor will best be able to advise you about your options and any effects the morning after pill might have had on the baby.

Tell your boyfriend and your parents. No matter what your decision, you will need their support. Your parents may be disappointed but they can help you.
 
my opinion..

may not be all that welcome, but heres what i have to say. it sounds to me like tis meant to be. i personally am very much against abortion, but in the end tis all up to your personal preference. i agree with lisalovesit and her adoption idea. please give your child if you are indeed pregnant a chance at life outside your womb. okay, preaching over.. there is a very big possiblitly that you aren't actually pregnant, with all your precautions and the pills, your hormone level could be quite wacky. when i got pregnant i had two false negatives before a test came out correctly. urine tests can be wrong. the blood test should tell you for sure. either way, give any of the decisions you decide to make a lot of thought. good luck, and don't be afraid to ask for support from loved ones. they may be reluctant at first, but will be there for you, once the shock washes over them. may i ask how old you are? i'm just curious given the nature of your fears about parents.
 
False negatives are a lot more common than false positives. A blood test really isn't that much more accurate than a urine test anymore, either.

Obviously, it's too late now, but did you talk about any of this with your partner before having sex? In my old age, I'm thinking everyone should have a 'what if' conversation before engaging in any risky behavior. I'm also shocked at the number of people who claim to be against abortion for religious reasons, but have risky sex anyway... and being on the pill while taking an antibiotic and using condoms improperly is pretty damn risky.

I hope the test is wrong. I hope you think about this a lot before you get an abortion. I hope you're grown up enough to talk to your family after all. I hope that you inform your boyfriend of the situation before you make final decisions. I hope, mostly, that you learn something from this.

Good Luck.
 
being on antibiotics while taking the pill can lower it's effectiveness from 99.9% to somewhere in the area of 60 to 65%, so it was probably a good thing you took the morning after pill.

But I am also wondering if the additional hormones you took with the morning after pill are causing an error in the tests.

Talk with your doctor.
 
i understand that.

my parents and i disowned eachother when my bf and i told them that we're pregnant and had been plannign on eloping for the past 8 months and just hadn't yet. they're now starting to try to be supportive after about three months of hell. i'm still glad that i told them though. i think they really have a right to know, once you know for sure that is. :). oh by the way, the unregistered reply two replies up, was me. i thought i was signed ina nd didnt' even notice. it'll all work out eventually, just try to grasp the immensity of bringing a child into the world. i'm 21 and my pregnancy was completely unplanned. i decided that under no uncertain terms was i going to terminate the pregnancy or give the child up for adoption even though i was positive we wouldnt' be ready. the further along i get (i'm 4 months along) the more ready i feel. i started feeling the baby a few weeks ago and when you hear that little heartbeat, tis so magical. it'll be stressful but i think in the end, an adoption would be best. like i said though its all up to you. you never know you may want to bring the child into the world after all. the important thing is to let the father know and let your parents know they'll be grandparents. the parents part though, wait as long as you want to tell them. i almost wish that i had waited till i'm showing, i'm still glad i told them though. everyone is different and good luck in your decisions. you can pm me if you want to. :).
