So my boyfriend and I had sex and for the first thirty seconds he didn't have a condom on but then he put it on. Even during sex, he didn't ***. The next day we did it, he wore one the whole time and afterwards, he filled it up with water to make sure there were no holes and there @eren't. The next day, I started getting abdominal cramps and bloating and I wiped and there was brown stuff, which I had originally thought was my period but it never came back. I read that implantation bleeding occurs about seven days after so it couldn't be that. Is there any chance I'm pregnant? I also have a very irregular period and never know when I will get it. I got it a month ago but that was the first time since about June

Pregnancy is possible, but not likely from what you describe. It is important to be sure that he uses a condom anytime there is penetration to reduce the chances. The cramping and discharge may have simply been due to the recent sex. It wouldn't be due to potential pregnancy.

Since you don't have regular periods, you won't be able to use a lack of one as a possibly indicator. You can try a pregnancy test in a few weeks time. If you were to become pregnant, it would likely show a positive result at that time.

To lower the odds even more, you may want to consider a second form of birth control as well. Keep in mind, however, that no form of contraception is 100% effective. If you have sex, pregnancy will be a possibility no matter how careful you are.

Agree, Condoms have a high percent of failure so pregnancy does occur often with just the use of condoms. ( They are good but far from 100 percent with a 10 percent or so over all failure rate as used normally) So you need to consider another form along with condoms if you are going to be sexually active.

But agree, you should wait about 14 days and try a test then again in 25 just to double check if first is negative.

Right, I fully intend to either go on birth control or just stop all together even after this minor scare. But as for the fact I have to wait a few weeks to test, the chances are not very high right?

[DoulaLC]

Correct, the chances are not very high.
