junior high student thinks she is pregs

Published

Help! I had a teacher come to me and tell me that her 8th grade student confided in her that she thinks she may be pregnant. The student lives with her father and is scared to tell him what is going on. I've passed this information on to our counselor but nothing has been done about it yet (that was 2 days ago). The student is not sure when her last menstrual cycle was and is completely freaking out over it. The "incident" happened approx 2 weeks ago, and I do know (per the teacher) that it was with a minor boy, so I know I'm not dealing with an adult/minor type situation here. I was hoping the counselor would take the lead on this since she already has an established relationship with this child and her father, but she hasn't and I know this issue has to be addressed ASAP. The child has no idea that the teacher has come to me, so she is probably going to be blind-sided when she gets called down to the office to see me or her counselor. I've not had to deal with this situation before. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Our YRBS results show that at least 10 of my current students had sex before age 13 :no: and that 35% have been sexiully active with 29%. I am shocked that our pregnancy rate is not higher.

Psh, all the vaccines killed the kids' sperm.

If the "incident" took place two weeks ago, a pregnancy test may or may not be accurate. Depending on her LMP or ovulation. That's assuming she actually had intercourse (I really hope not. 8th grade????). If the boy ejaculated and she was simply nearby, maybe she does not understand that she cannot get pregnant from that. In any case, she needs intervention.

I wanted to jump in here and add that intercourse is not the only way to get pregnant, I learned that the hard way. My boyfriend ejaculated on me and I tested positive for pregnancy a month later when I went in for a procedure.

When they asked when my LMP was, I said I'm expecting it any day. They asked if I could be pregnant and I laughed and said, "zero chance, I'm not sexually active". They wheeled me into the surgical room and handed me the results and said they cant go through with the procedure because I tested positive. I told them that thats impossible, its wrong, and to test me again. At first I thought I might be being pranked. Then I thought for sure I must have an HCG secreting tumor.

Well now I have an adorable seven month old and my boyfriend and I still have never had real sex. Not many people know that this is possible. I sure didnt and I'm a nurse.

That depends on what your definition of sex is. Sex is such a vague term. Most people assume it means sexual intercourse but it can include all sexual acts. So the sexual act I was doing could be considered "sex" even if there was no penetration which there absolutely was not. I have vulvadynia and can have normal sex because it is too painful.

Yes it got everywhere. Physical contact but no penetration. I wiped it off with a towel then went to the bathroom and then cleaned off more with wet wipes just to be sure.

I've been abstinent for 6 years and have an infant. It just bothers me when people think you are safe as long as you dont have intercourse.

I know those suckers can be persistent. I've heard similar stories, and I imagine that there have been people engaging in anal sex that resulted in pregnancy due to the traveling sperm. Not terribly familiar with your condition, but I hope it didn't make child birth even more difficult for you.

Ah, boys. That is the "excuse" they use for oral/anal intercourse to completion.....if not, it gets EVERYWHERE and you could get pregnant.....

It is the 2000's version of pulling out/just let me put the tip in.....
