CarrieMagdelene agony auntYou won't be able to tell if your egg/eggs have be fertilized until at the least two weeks after conception. This is pointed out by a late period, a change in vaginal discharge, nausea, vomiting (not just in the morning!), dizziness, and sensitivity to smells (food, ususally). No way to be SURE until you take a test. You can't get a false positive, but you CAN get a false negative. First Response will give you the quickest results, but it's best to wait 3 or so days after your missed period.

A woman can get pregnant from ANY amount of semen, INCLUDING PRE-EJACULATE, also known as PRE-CUM. This contains sperm, and is the number-one reason that girls get pregnant when they and thier boyfriends/hubbies use the pull out method. This method does NOT work any more than 50% of the time. It's not a risk worth taking unless you can financially and emotionally support a baby, and you know what you want to do with your future.

The morning after pill, which you can get from the clinic discreetly and privately, will prevent conception if taken withing at the most 72 hours after unprotected sex, if you follow the instructions carefully.

In the future, make sure to use condoms, even when you're on the pill, to make sure no unwanted pregnancies occur. Condoms are one of the most effective forms of birth control, and there's virtually no risk of pregnancy if you're also on birth control pills. This is my reccomended form of contraceptives...If the condom breaks, I have my Disaster Insurance.

TasteofIndia agony auntIt's totally possible that you're pregnant. Once some get's in there, it's in there. How you'll know your pregnant is another story, you'll just need to wait until that time of the month comes around.

If you don't want to be pregnant, there is always emergency contraception, or "the morning after pill" (or, also known as "Plan B"). If you have a Planned Parenthood near you, they'd be happy to give you one, and some pharmacies sell them over the counter (call them up and see if they do).

I'd consider getting that pilling, seeing as your boyfriend doesn't want a baby and there's still a possibility of avoiding that chance. After you take the 'morning after pill' (and you have about 48-72 hours to do so), you can discuss having a baby with your partner. I worry that if you DO fall pregnant and he really doesn't want a baby, he won't be the best father he could be for your child, or he could just leave you to raise it yourself.

Discuss this with your boyfriend. A baby needs to be a two person decision.

cd206 agony auntYou can't. It's totally possible that you could get pregnant even if your boyfriend came only a drop and you felt it come out but you won't be able to tell until your period is late at which point you can take a test. Taking one before won't show up a result. However it sounds like it might be a good idea to discuss your desire for a baby with your boyfriend because it sounds like he doesn't want this and you do in which case you need to have a serious talk.
