Hello,

I am 18 years old and only had sex for the first time about a month ago (November 24). My boyfriend and I used a spermicidal condom, checked it every couple of minutes, and actually changed it in the middle to make sure it did not wear out. He did not even come close to coming inside me- maybe pre-ejaculation, but nothing substantial, AND in the condom. Afterwards we filled the used condoms with water to check for leaks or holes, and there was absolutely nothing. I got my period about 2 weeks later (December 6), exactly on time, and did not think anything of pregnancy after that. However, about 2 weeks ago (3 weeks after sex), I got a stomachache that has been coming and going since then. It seems like a "gassy" stomachache (meaning I get it, but as soon as I release gas, it goes away). Of course we freaked out and are extremely worried, even though this weird stomachache is the only "symptom". When I stress out over it I get moody, but I believe this is just the stress and worry. I have had a mild case of mono since September and wonder if this could be because of that, but I'm not sure.

Also, there were two instances where we were completely caught up in the moment and did not have a condom- but we did NOT have unprotected sex, we used plastic wrap to go in and out a couple times (more for the sensation than anything else). Again, we checked to make sure nothing happened, and it lasted less than two minutes each time.

Could I be pregnant? I know a test is obviously more reliable than the internet, but I'm not ready to take one.
