Sweetie, it's been a month since you've posted your story, but what the others are saying is not totally true... I myself have found that everytime i was pregnant in the past (2x), i have come on two weeks early, and I have been pregnant both times...Some peoples bodies just work in a different way than others, but keep in my mind that it is possible. I am actually experiencing it at this time, which is scary to me..now, there has been once or twice that I have done it, and it came out that I wasn't pregnant, but like the others said, that was due to the stress of going through it before, and it turned out that I wasn't.
just wait to see, though, that's always the best way to go.
To the person that stayed anonymous, i am so happy that you did, because whoever told to you that you could not come on your period while pregnant, lied to you severely...TISK TISK

This depends. If your period was surprisingly light, then this could have been implantation bleeding, something that happens when a fertilized egg attaches itself to the uterus.
However, if you consider it a 'normal' period, I see no cause for concern, as it could just be your body reacting to the amount of worry you must be having because of this.
I'd advise that if you are still not sure, take a pregnancy test, I suspected that I was pregnant a few months ago, and once I took a pregnancy test and it was negative, my worries dissapeared. The day after I took this test, my period arrived.
I would advise going on the contraceptive pill, as this will protect you from pregnancy, aswell as making your periods regular. Condoms are also a good idea because they prevent against STD's and the HIV/AIDS virus. I can imagine you would be able to get these from PlannedParenthood for free, regardless of your age.
At the moment the best thing to do is take a pregnancy test in 2 weeks but try not to worry, from personal experience, the more you worry the longer your period may take to come.

It's probably time to buy a pregnancy test and check for certain. Follow the instructions on the box for accurate results.
I have an educational video for you to watch that will help explain a lot of things. I learned a lot watching it.

Obviously, having unprotected sex can lead to pregnancy not to mention STDs. It seems to me that another symptom of unprotected sex (what does it last, an hour tops?) is weeks of worrying. It seems to me to be a bad trade-off. I guess you know that already. I suggest that you ask to see a gynecologist if you're going to be sexually active. There's a new vaccine out there that helps guard against certain strains of the Human Papilloma Virus that have been implicated in cervical cancer.
I also suggest that you visit this website for lots of information on sex and all the various pitfalls.

Good luck, and I hope that everything turns out okay for you!

And if you are going to be sexually active, I would deffinately get on the pill and use condoms!
