    1. You can get pregnant the first time you have sex. If you are not ready to discuss birth control and implement it, I'd suggest you don't have sex.

    2. I don't know.

    3. If it's positive just come out and tell them. Get it done with and own up to your responsibilities. If it's not positive, just my opinion but you need to rethink your actions. First of all, 15 is too young to even be thinking about it, much less doing it. I'm not an idiot though, I realize that if girls want to do something, they're going to do it regardless of what anyone says. But think it through and ask yourself if you are really ready to deal with what consequences might arise as a result. Life is full of choices and there is a price to pay for those choices. Also, if you are choosing to have sex, do it responsibly and use birth control.

    1) It really depends on the woman (and the sperm). Sometimes it doesn't happen and the egg is not fertilized which is why women don't get pregnant from unprotected sex all the time. If you do, it will probably happen in two to three days. A baby just doesn't appear - it takes time for the cells to multiply gradually and then show up as positive in one to two weeks on a pregnancy test.

    2) From 1 to 2 weeks. Usually! You can then start testing yourself with home pregnancy tests. Do it in the morning. Pee is more concentrated.

    3) I would still agree with BlueJay's first sentence in his reply. What's done is done. Just be calm. Also know that there are abortion and morning after pills options depending on where you live.

    basically if you're ovulate soon before/after sex you could get pregnant. I think most would say this would tend to be within 1/2 days though few people have shown sperm to be alive and kicking 3 days after intercouse in the female genital tract.

    best thing to do is to wait for your next period and if you're a week late then a pregnancy test might show positive if you're pregnant. for best results it's generally recommended to wait for two weeks after you miss your period.

    as to the best way? I'd suggest telling whichever parent u're closer with first (or the more protective parent if you know which one that is). usually it'll be mom.. occasionally dad is a better choice but one at a time would be better I think.

    PS even if u're not pregnant, can I suggest you pop down to your local family planning clinic? not to preach or anything, but if u're old enough for sex then u're old enough to be responsible for the contraception and the diseases that come along with. no gain with no pain!

    1. instantly-3 days, depending where you are in the cycle.

    2. it depends on the test. the one I took you can take 2 days after a missed period

    3. get as much info on the subject first (get pamphlets from family planning, go to the library, talk to a family planning counselor) that way you will seem more mature and knowlegable, and will have something in writing to share with your parents, so that you can take the journey together. also, It totally depends on your parent's personalities as to how you should initially break it to them.

    1.If you have unprotected sex how long does it take for someone to get pregnant? How long will depend on how fast the sperm swims, it can take hours and im pretty sure it can take a couple of days well!!

    2.How long do you have to wait after sex b4 you can take a home pregnancy test? Normally they wont show a result with about 10 days, but some say 3 days after your missed period

    3. whats the best way to tell your parents that thier 15 yr old daughter is pregnant(if it's positive) Be honest with them

    Don't bone unless you're mature enough to use some protection. I was 15 and on the pill. It's not that hard to not get pregnant.
