Sex In A Pool
Two days ago I had sex with my boyfriend and it was unprotected. We've had sex before and we always use a condom and I'm looking into getting on birth control by the end of this month, but on the 18th we went swimming and we were making out a lot and his parents went to sleep and we were pretty much left alone in his pool at night. Well things got a little too hot and heavy and like I said, we had sex. We went for like a minute or so, and then he pulled out, and 5 minutes later he put it back in for another minute or so... and he pulled out again. My period usually starts anywhere from the 24th to the end of the month. Could I be pregnant?scared to death | age 16 | July 21, 2010

Yes, it's possible. If he didn't ejaculate inside of you, it's less likely than it would be otherwise, but pre-ejaculate can contain some sperm. If you don't get your period - or if it's unusually light, as that can be implantation bleeding indicating pregnany, instead of an actual period - take a pregnancy test.Sex in a pool is just as likely to get you pregnant as sex on dry land (and possibly more likely to result in chafing - ow!). Pulling out is not a reliable method of birth control. Using a condom most of the time is good, but using a condom all of the time is even better.
