Answer 1

most pregnacy tests don't work until after you've missed your period. if the guy dumped u because u might be pregnant, u never needed him anyway, but he is still just as responsible as you are. if your parents know thats good but i wouldn't worry about telling the rest of your family until you know for sure. there are some test that work 5 days before your missed period and where is your august period??  if your period doesn't come take another test. if its still negative, u need to see your doctor to make sure something else isn't wrong, but you're probably not pregnant.

Answer 2

If you had s*x 3 weeks ago the pregnancy test you took is accurate.

I do not know when you cycle is but sounds like to me that you must have already had a period since having s*x three weeks ago.  Else you have a VERY long cycle.

Anyway a test today for s*x three weeks ago is accurate.

ETA :Sorry just reread your post - on July 9th you had s*x   That is bit longer than three weeks ago - if you do not expect your next period from July 9th Until Sept 4th -then WOW...  Anyway s*x on July 9th would make you almost 8weeks pregnant now...   You need to go back to school at get some education.

Answer 3

well u said the test is negative right? then wy r u still thinking u might be? ttry the folowing test, first response, it tells u a couple days before u are supposed to start ur period if u are or not, so since u arent supposed to start ur period til september 4th, then u cant find out on ur own if u are pregnant til beginning os september.unless u go in for a doctors appointment and use their tests. to save money i'd just wait it out til begning of september and buy first response. so accurate. love them. hopefully things will work out for you. oh and sorry but that guy is still the baby's dad, just tell him..sorry i really hate guys like that ..

lets hope u're not pregnant and that way u wont have to deal with a guy like that. goo luck to you!

Answer 4

If you had your period this month, why are you asking. Once in July, you would have missed this months period. As for the test, way too early. Pregnancy tests can only detect it up to 5 days before your missed period. Did you have a period this month? If not and you got a negative, I doubt you are pregnant.

Answer 5

First, get on the pill or use a condom next time.  If you are not pregnant maybe this scare will help you learn?

Dont mean to preach but...

Second, it's probably still too early dear.  3 days (or so) before missed period is as soon as you can take it.  

Third, if you are pregnant...Yes tell him, even if he dumped you.  It's still his child by law.  He may want to be a dad.  If not, he has to pay child support and all that jazz.  It's the law.

Answer 6

I would tell him by having child support garnished from his pay check.  Im sorry to here that he dumped you over something he had a hand in.  I am glad your parents are supportive it will help, and it might help your family support you too.  If you haven't missed your period yet just wait til you are late then retest, but treat your body as if you are pregnant just in case.  

Answer 7

It's still way early for a pregnancy test. Your not even late yet. I would wait until the 4th or 5th of Sep and take another one. If he dumped you when you told him you could possibly be pregnant you don't need him . Sounds like a jerk to me. You have your parents who are supportive of you and will help you. Good luck

Answer 8

Even the best tests are only accurate up to 6 days before missed period so no it is not accurate. However, if it said yes then it is accurate because false positives are impossible almost.

Answer 9

well u can make it without him. but u can also put him on child support if he wont help with the baby. also i believe all parents are let down whe their child gets pregnant butit wil be ok. when the baby gets here, they will change and accept it no matter what. u may not be pregnat if it came out neg.......ur period may be late, well u said it idnt dude until next month. i honestly dont believe u are pregnant but if u are i wish u the best of luck sweetheart. be strong

Answer 10

If you had s*x on July 9 and your period isn't supposed to be here until Sept 4, when was your last period? You should have had one by now, that's 2 months between s*x and your next period? That doesn't make sense. Did you have a period since July 9? If you did, then you are not pregnant. If you haven't had a period since July 9, that's been 6 weeks, it is highly likely that you are pregnant. HPT's can give false positives.

If you are, tell your parents b/c you will need their support financially and emotionally.

As for the guy dumping you, well...I know you don't want to hear this but this is why people who can't support a baby emotionally or physically shouldn't have s*x. Be aware of your actions in the future.

Answer 11

yes tell him anyways... you said you already hav your parents support so even if he doesnt want to hav nothing to do with the baby its his loss right?!!!! there are heaps of single mums out there youll be fine good luck...
