We aim to please. I think you'll find we on Dave's are a real tight knit bunch.
Stick together, stay out of trouble, and tie up any loose ends if you know what I mean.

OP, i am confused by most of this thread. In your initial post you mention that you are asking "for a friend of a friend" and shockingly, in the rest of the thread you are typing as if it were not a friend indeed, but rather you, who were the one in need.

Hey, I .

OP, just to make you feel better, it's not as easy as everyone thinks to get pregnant. Most doctors tell people that it will take around a year of actually trying to get pregnant. So relax, it's doubtful you knocked your girl up.

In two weeks time buy a pregnancy test and also try one more time at the third week. Probably there will be nothing. If there is something, you can deal with it right away.

This happens to people all the time and the result is usually nothing but a couple of anxiety attacks.

Not entirely your fault, but entirely your responsibility. Just curious, you said they didn't give you the 'legit' stuff at the pharmacy, just OTC stuff... I'm confused. There's different pills for different things. The 'morning after' pill is very high dose and can make the girl very very sick (including debilitating cramps), but is generally not permanently harmful. Lots of countries require doctor prescription. Regular birth control pills are much lower dose and are designed to confuse the body into not trying to get pregnant.

Some people (including me) believe 'morning after' pills are a type of abortion in that they can stop a previously fertilized egg from implanting into the uterus. There have been many pharmacists and doctors in the US, at least, that have refused to prescribe or dispense them. Regular birth control pills can do that too, but I won't get into the debate.

Right now, you've got no other option except to support your girl emotionally, so just sit tight. She's probably very nervous, too. I strongly suggest you use a condom from now on. Even if you could convince her to start birth control, it doesn't sound like she's emotionally ready for the commitment that it requires. Remember also that if you go for birth control method it takes a full week to kick in. Condom before that no matter what.

My understanding is that with 'perfect' conditions, chances of pregnancy are around 30 percent this month. I don't think you were quite at perfect conditions. You were a couple days early for 'perfect'. Using the rhythm method, you're talking about a 20 to 30 percent chance of getting pregnant in a year. Withdrawal method is also high chance of pregnancy. Go look on the planned parenthood website. It's full of good information.

Did your girl get you with the guilt trip saying she was "late"?
