Ok, my bf and I have only been sexually active for abt a month together.
We had unprotected sex once (I hadn't been expecting to sleep with him b/c I had actually planned on breaking up with him that day, but that's a seperate issue), but I took Plan B. We had sex again three days later (used a condom, it came off as he was pulling out) and I got my regular period afterwards.
About two weeks ago I got sick, with a bug that's been going around at my college (symptoms were: relatively high fever for a day, protracted general fatigue, plus congestion/head cold symptoms). I am feeling ok now, but I did have sex with my bf the day before I came down with the fever (again, used a condom). He also gave me oral sex a few days after the fever. He got mildy sick with the same bug, but was fine after four days.
Then we had sex about a week ago, but I'm having a hard time remembering the exact date. It was about five days after my period ended, I think. I was still kind of fatigued from being sick and I actually made him stop before he was finished, because I was tired and my leg was cramping. He wore a condom that time, too.
We haven't had sex since. I've actually been avoiding him, I'm once again thinking of breaking up with him. But I've been kind of moody lately. I was experiencing mood swings since before I got sick, and I think that's in part due to the fact that I am undecided about my guy and whether I want to be with him.
But anyway for the last couple of days, I've been pretty unpredictable and moody... Then this morning I was lying in bed at about 9 am (it's spring break so I have nowhere to be) and I suddenly felt completely nauseous. I ran to the bathroom but didn't throw up.
My period isn't due for about another 3 weeks (it's generally pretty irregular), but I'm having a bit of nervous reaction to the fact that I just randomly (?) felt nauseous... Another fact I should mention is that I've eaten a lot of carrots over the past two days, it's almost like I've been craving them. Which is unusual for me.
So my possible symptoms, approx. one week after cut-short sex, are: mood swings (that I was already experiencing), cravings for carrots (aren't cravings usually much further down the road in pregancies?), and a general panicky feeling about the fact that I might be pregnant.The whole panic feeling is also partially due to the fact that my parents don't even know I'm with anyone (which is remarkable, considering the fact that I live at home) and I'm pretty sure their reaction to me being pregnant wouldn't be a pretty sight. Actually, I literally haven't told anyone, not even my best friends, that I'm sleeping with my bf... Most ppl don't even know about him at all (it's a long, complicated story).
I possibly have mono which could contribute to the messed-up state of my body... I got it before I even met my bf and I have doing pretty well with it if that's what it is... In retrospect, my bf and I have been pretty stupid b/c he is of course totally vulnerable to that through me, although he does seem to have a remarkably strong immune system...
Anyway, my point is, is it too early to tell if I am pregnant? I tend to have irregular periods so it will be about 3 weeks before I can be sure whether I've missed it or not.
