A period 8 days after sex nearly confirms (let's call it 99%) that you are not pregnant.

But you were cutting it close!

You need to do a little reading on how your cycle works.

Here is a good start.

First, when in doubt - Always see your doctor.

These make good reading. Good Luck.

P.S. If your are not ready for a family or the responsibilities, make sure you use protection as there are too many risks out there.

The real question should be...
Prassun - Please ask yourself these questions instead, What will we do if I am pregnant? Are we ready to become parents? If there is no marital commitment between you and your boyfriend, then please don't risk a pregnancy. The consequences of unplanned parenthood are usually pretty harsh for everyone involved, especially an innocent baby. Whether you consider marriage, adoption, or abortion, they all have very serious consequences. Don't do things you may regret later because these things can't be easily undone. Your boyfriend also needs to think about more than just pleasure, he should think about responsibility. Although it's true men should not always put the burden of protection on the women, it is ultimately your body and if you don't respect it and protect it, then who will?

Good for you! Hope you stick with the forum, you think along very logical and helpful lines. I tried to rate you, but already did so many time, that I can't now, I have to 'spread' them out, as the message says. Just wanted to let you know. P.S. This thread is getting so large, that maybe we should start another, beginning new with the same issues...

Thanks...
Thanks for the vote of confidence. I agree, the thread is getting too large, but since I am a "newbie" I wouldn't know how to do that, can you? By the way Chery, what are Reputation Points and where can I find out the meaning of all these little things like the arrows and their significance?

Signed Confused but stickin it out...

I was always told that you can become pregnant @ anytime. The female body is very complex. We will sometimes bleeed when we are pregnant and not suppose to, some of us experience morning sickness while other's will not, you will just never really know. You can't compare what is happening to you to what normally happens for the simple fact, you may be an exception to the rule. When in doubt, see a doctor.

Amen, that is the 'golden rule'. An example: my mom was always proud to tell me that she didn't 'show' and had her period all through her pregnancy with me. P.S. She also tried to abort me when she found out, so maybe that's why. But I'm here, and I am a Survivor still. So, each of us differs.
