sweety you are way too young to be having to worry about this stuff. But i understand. although i wasnt 15 when i found out i was pregnant. (i was 19 and had a miscarrage 2 weeks after i found out i was) the 1st thing you should do is go to a drug store and buy a pregnacy test they run at about $7.
if it shows that you are expecting and you want to make sure take another. if that one shows up positive aswell. honey you have to tell your parents. i know how scary that sounds, but trust me they can help more than you can believe. telling your boyfriend well i was too scared to tell him face to face so i told him over the phone.(could have been worse) im not saying thats the best thing to do. but it worked for me. and there will be so many options to consider if you wish to not keep the child but please if you are dont have an abortion. please consider open adoption so many people want children and can not have them.
if it comes out negative consider it a second chance and do 1 of 2 things. STOP having sex you're just a teen. wait until you're older trust me it gets better when you're making love to the person you know for a fact you want to spend the rest of your life with. i was 15 when i lost my virginity and let me tell you 5 yrs later i wish i wouldnt have. because now im with a great guy im about to get married and i know if we ever got pregnant it would be a blessing and not oops.. kinda thing.
or 2 if you're gonna continue to have sex get on birth control it helps. make him put ona condom. those work too.
and now that you're having sex make sure you go get checked get a p.a.p done usually you dont start getting those done until you turn 18 but it is recomended that you get tested when you become sexually active. and do annual STD test.
please take care of yourself better...

 To begin with, it is very early for you to be getting these symptoms, although some women don't feel 'quite right' very early into a pregnancy. Chances are that you are imagining some of the signs and are worrying which can cause symptoms very similiar to pregnancy, particularly feeling sick and getting headaches as well as needing to use the bathroom more frequently. You are also very young whereby hormones can play a big effect on your body causing you to feel out of sorts and sometimes unwell.
Have you missed a period yet? Obviously this is the biggest first sign of pregnancy.
What you need to do is get a pregnancy test and find out for yourself. If it comes up negative, do it again in weeks time or a little bit longer if you wish. By then, you may have had your period anyway.
Get some support from someone who helps teenagers who become pregnant. Or if you know someone older you can confide in, then do so.
Use protection next time with your boyfriend. Condoms will potect you not only against pregnancy but sexually transmitted diseases also and this is very important.
Find out first and foremost if you are pregnant. Taking a trip to your doctors could be one way of finding out if you want to make absolute certain. Take a close friend with you for support.
Then, once you know, you can decide to tell your boyfriend and your parents but confiding in your boyfriend now that you are concerned will allow him to give you the support you need.
I hope this helps.

You should check with your doctor if the symptoms are connected to a disease.
I don't know how early a pregnancy can be detected through an over the counter test, but I would definitely look into that.
You didn't say if you used protection or not. I hope that you took care of your safety.Do you use contraception?
I'm not a doctor but 2 weeks seems quite early to be getting symptoms of pregnancy.
I hope you are not pregnant.
You should use this scary episode to motivate yourself to be more responsible in the future and use contraception and protection.
Please, take good care of yourself and your body. And if you are having sex at such a young age, be mature about it.
Good luck to you.
