What would you do if...

Good for you. But a "false alarm" does not mean that you are uneducated or that you didn't take every precaution.

he didnt take any precaution he was told she was on the pill which has to be taken at specific times for it to be effective.

im a firm believe of if you do not want a child you should be responsible for your own protection regardless of what you are told from the other involved party
 
OP are you in a situation to seriously consider keeping it?

A quick google reveals that being older than 16 she doesn't need parental consent.

...and regarding the pill, even if she's taken them every day things can go wrong. For example, I found out (in time ;) ) that even with mild diarrhoea (and obviously sickness) it's recommended that you rubber up for three days.

So my girlfriend thinks she might be pregnant... and is getting a pregnancy test tomorrow.... we are only 17 and really bricking it right now...

If it came out positive... what would we do?!? :eek:

If it comes out positive then it isn't really "what do we do" but more "what does she do?" as the ball will be firmly in her court as to whether she keeps it or not.
 
This tbh

kids are amazing, not a day passes i dont wonder whaht my life would be like without my daughter.
but i was ready and wanted kids. i dont think you are. remember sex is not something you should undertake lightly, afterall, you could end up being a father....;)
 
This probably isn't the best place to ask tbh. Although you must be scarred and at least you've asked for some advice which is promising.

Only the pair of you will know what to do, but ultimately its her choice. This basically means that if you push her for an abortion and she decides she doesn't want one then you're going to be a father, so try to be supportive and understanding.

It doesn't sound like you want to be a father, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't be, prepare for your life to change completely if that's the case though.

Don't count out adoption.

Await the results, stay calm, spend time together somewhere out of the house. If she is pregnant then you have to look at your parents and ask yourself whether they will go bat**** crazy but then calm down and think things through with you and help, or will they just go bat**** crazy? If it's the former, regardless of whether she has it aborted or not, you should tell them; yours and hers. Remember that they know you best and are best served to give you guidance. Your parents are people who will surprise you until you're fat and balding and you'll be surprised how insightful they can be in a crisis.

Don't go telling your mates, not one of them, until you know what the score is. Chances are they have NO life experience in this field and will only muddy the waters and potentially cause a knee jerk "I'm keeping it" reaction. Even if she is pregnant and you decide to keep it don't tell them until the doctors advise it's "safe" to do so.

It's unfortunate, maybe she did take the pill on time, maybe she didn't. Remember that the pill is most effective when taken at the same time every single day, missing it by 6 hours can throw things off especially for a pair of dangerously fertile teenagers. Set an alarm on her phone, make it a baby crying uncontrollably, that'll remind her I'm certain.

PS. Good luck!

Honestly though, I would abort it if you're not ready. Think hard about it, if you are ready then that's great :)

Is it too late to take the "morning after" pill?

If you're not ready, then the child's quality of life won't be great. Abortion may be the lesser of two evils.
