I am currently worrying as to whether or not I am pregnant. I am only 17 years old and was in no way trying to conceive, but hey, stuff happens. If I am, I will just have to suffer the consequences for the decision that I made, I am thoroughly against abortion but do not feel that I am strong enough to be a pregnant woman. I have not taken a home pregnancy test yet although my AF was due about 4 days ago. I seem to be too afraid to face the truth because I've just got this feeling that I am, that's why I've been so okay with putting off getting a test because I am almost certain that I am because I have never felt this way before or this in-tune with my body, it's quite strange. I do not remember the date of my last menstrual period but I am positive of the possible date of conception, which would be March 17th, exactly 12 days ago. 5 days after having unprotected sex, I got a brown spotting followed by two days of bright red bleeding. I thought this was my period, but it would have been a few days early. Strange thing is, this bleeding only lasted two days and followed by brown spotting just like before I began to bleed. I had never before had a period that lasted two days or have had such a bright red of blood. So I do not know whether to chalk this up as an early period or implantation/decidual bleeding since I did not get my period the 25th which is when my AF usually is each month (though I tend to have an irregular period alot.) I have read that a test is best about 14 days after conception so if I do not get my full blown period within 3 days I will go out and get a test. Unless you think right now is a good time where there is no possibility of getting a false negative because I do not want to go through this. I am just so scared and at such a crossroad & have no idea what to do with my life as of now.

Any advice/ insight would be greatly appreciated, thank you and God bless! 

And I will not respond let alone read through any judgmental/ rude comments... I realize I made a mistake by not taking the precautions and do not need anyone kicking me while I am already down, so to speak.

You will just have to suffer the consequences you made? What do you think this? Keeping your baby is the way out of this so consequence having an abortion is the hard way out, do you think people get abortions because they want to and don't give a f**k about their children, yes some people are cruel and really don't want them but others is a completely different story, I have a 8 month old daughter and found out I was pregnant with my 2nd child when she was 5 months old and I was already 2 months along. Don't think an abortion is bad and the wrong thing to do and you have to "suffer" as you call it. I aborted my 2nd child, I have no money, no home to provided for another child of mine when I'm trying to get on my feet and a better education and job so I can give what my daughter needs an wants in life and so when me and my fiancé grow our family bigger we can provided for them the best we can, if your not ready to be a mother/parent then do what is best for you at the time an for you maybe it is getting an abortion so when your baby is born into this world you can give them what you think is the best. If you think your gona have to suffer from your decision your crazy, being a mother is a beautiful amazing experience and life. I mean looking at my daughter every morning isn't suffering, it's more then anyone mother or parent could describe, it's okay to get an abortion it's okay to realise you made a mistake and the decision you make upon it should be to better yourself, not to live in your mistake. I dont believe your "too" young to be a mum if this is you then that's amazing. I would never judge a young mum. I had my daughter at 19 and aborted my 2nd at 20, I live with pain everyday from loosing my child but I would never of being able to live with the pain of bringing them into a world where I couldn't provided my best for them as I'm trying to better my daughter and my family's life. It does sound like implant bleeding as I had the same thing, try in the 3 days for a HpT, your levels then will be higher to if pregnant, keep in mind tho some lady's never show on pregnancy test so if you gain symptoms id sugest to test again then and if still nothing head over to your doctors for a blood test, best of luck!! And also test your first urine of the day that has the most hormones to test with. Happy decision making and which ever you choose I'm sure will be the best choice. Happy living
