    Default 18 and worried! Help??

    I had started looking into signs of pregnancy after i woke up and just felt like i was going to puke before school, Tuesday January 3rd. Then i noticed my period was a week late so i really started paying attention to what was going on.
    These are the facts; my last period started Novemeber 28th and ended December 4th. I had unprotected sex on December 9th but took Plan B on the 10th. Then again i started playing with fire on the 13th; also the day ovulation was predicted. I didnt have any Plan B and by the time i got some it was past 72 hours. On the 16th i had really light spotting which confused me, but i asked my mom if i could start some of my left over birth control on the 18th even tho it was just spotting, she was so sure but she told me to do it. By then the spotting was over, so now here i am. Im neacious after i eat, but i've never really been able to puke. I have heartburn too. Today, January 9th, i am 13 days late on my period and im getting nervous. I took a test on saturday, but the line was very faint and my friend said that it was invalid. I also took it at like 10:30 pm after eating a bunch of raw cookie dough; so good! And another thing i've noticed is i've been drinking milk and eating dairy...im lactosentolerant. But it doeant make me sick.
    So what im really asking, is the pill screwing something up because i didnt take it right? Im trying not to stress and i didnt start getting worried til i noticed i was a week late. But now its two weeks.
    Please help! (sorry for any spelling& punctuation errors)

    I hate to tell you this, but a line on a HPT (even a faint one) is a positive, provided you did the test correctly. However the line *should* have been pretty dark if your period was already late. You need to take another HPT ASAP or go to the doc. If you're two weeks late, you'd technically be 6 weeks pregnant right now (they go from the first day of your last period, not from the actual day you got pregnant) and the 6 week mark IS usually where the morning sickness hits. I know it was 6.5 weeks with my first and 6 weeks exactly with this one.

    That being said, starting BC in the middle of a cycle and not being regular about it can mess with your period very easily... and "morning sickness" is kind of an easy thing to talk yourself into if you're worried about being pregnant. The best thing for you to do now is to take another HPT as soon as you can and see what results you get... and stop eating raw cookie dough! lol. It's bad for you anyway but you really don't want to get sick if you're pregnant, trust me!

    Best of luck - you're in the right place - this forum is GREAT for things like this!

    If you are already two weeks late, you will get an accurate result on a pregnancy test. So, go get another one and take it with your first morning urine. On a pregnancy test, if there is a second line, no matter how faint, its positive. Good luck!

    First Response Early Results.. they're in a pink box, usually come in a pack of 2 or 3. those are most accurate and easiest to read!
