Honey, you can't put the cart before the horse. The first thing you have to do is find out if you are pregnant or not. We can deal with the rest if you are. So let's start there okay?
You need to take a HPT using first morning urine. Please forgive me as I have worked a 12 hour shift and now have been awake for more than 17 hours... how late is your period?

I know about the first morning urine thing. And my period Isn't late yet. I should get it with in the next week though... And usually before my periods I have extreeme cramping and my breasts hurt but as of right now I'm not doing any of thoes things... But, I am discharging a LOT and I usually don't do that... I already have the tests and I was going to take one on the 1st and 1 on the 7th... and if they were both negative and I still hadn't gotten my period I was going to get another box and take the tests like 7 days apart and keep doing that until my period comes or I got a positive... and you should get some sleep.

It sounds as though you have the right plan going. Wait until you miss your period before testing. But, remember, that stress from worrying about pregnancy can make your period late as well. Sometimes we even skip a month for no reason at all.
Now, you are a true darlin... and you are right... I need to get some sleep. Keep me posted on what you find out and I will help you any way you need it. ;)

Well this morning I took the first pregnancy test... It was negative. But, I still haven't started my period and I'm not even having symptoms like I'm going to. I'm going to take the other test on the 7th. Hopefully by then I will have started my period... if not the test should come out positive... and if that doesn't happen.. I guess I'm just going to have to wait and see what happens. I'll think I'm going to wait a week or so and if I don't start take another test and go from there... what do you think?

Are you officially late for your period?
Have you taken a test?
If you're not pregnant then talk to you mom. It's important that you get checked and get on birth control. :)
You know we're here for you either way. :)

I'll be late in 3 days and I have taken a test I think it was yesterday or the day before yesterday. My mom knows that I'm not a virgin and all... and I've been hounding her about Birthcontrol because I have horrible periods... but I have to have my apt while I'm on my period.. but she never makes them when I'm on.

This is really important.
Don't let it go. Is there any way you can make the appointment?
If you're not pregnant, and until you get on the pill, please at least use a condom. It's better then nothing. :)
If you are pregnant then make sure you get prenatal vitamins asap. In fact, you could start them now, they won't hurt you but they're very necessary for the baby, if you're pregnant. :)

No I don't think I can make the apt. Because I'm only 15... I'm military or well retired military so we go through post... and eveytime I have had sex I have used a condom... I've been with my boyfriend over a year now... and we lost our virginitys to each other and stuff... so I don't have to worry about STDs. And if I'm pregnant the baby will be my whole world and I'll do anything for it to be healthy. And I know since I'm young there could be complications in the pregnancy ]:

I did read the previous posts.
I have to say that you seem to really know what you want and you have a pretty good head on your shoulders. I'm still hoping that you're not pregnant though. :)
If you are then I'm sure you'll find some way to get through it, but lets cross our fingers and hope that you can experience motherhood a lot later in your life.
You really need to get your mom on track. You need to make that doctor appointment. Don't take no for an answer, okay? This is your health we're talking about, it needs to be addressed.
For now, start taking prenatal vitamins. Like I said, they won't harm you but they're very important if you turn out to be pregnant. Most prenatal vitamins are over the counter, you don't need a prescription, so pick some up and start taking them. Taking them at night is the best, some people do feel nauseous with vitamins and taking them at night can help curb that.
Let us know how it goes okay? :)

I'm hoping that I'm not... just for the fact that I have my whole life to have a baby, when I'm older I definantly want one... but still I am only 15. If I am pregnant, I'm going to face it head on :]
And about my mom, it's not that she doesn't want me to get it.. it's that she just never makes the apt. even when I remind her... I go to school and she forgets then by the time she gets around to it my period is over.
And where can I get them? Like at a normal store?

So yesterday I took the other test, and it too was negative, but still I haven't gotten my period and I should have gotten it the 6th... So what I'm thinking now is that my period is just late.. It does that a lot. So that takes a little bit of stress off my shoulders and maybe it will come now. Let's just say that this was a learning experience for me :]

I just randomly started thinking about this again. But, I'm definantly NOT pregnant and have not had sex since. I'm also on birthcontrol. But, I have a question about my best friend, she randomly hooked up with some guy.. and she thinks she's having pregnancy symptoms. It has been a little over a week and her breasts hurt, and she's having some spotting.. from what I've read I think that she could be pregnant.. I told her to wait for a while to take the test. She's not as prepaird as I was... how do I go about keeping her stress levels down and keeping her calm?
