So I went to the dentist yesterday and she mentioned that my gums were bleeding a lot which she said could happen if you're due for your period ... which I'm not, but my last period about 2 weeks ago was much lighter and shorter than normal ... still a day of really heavy bleeding though ... anyway during both my previous pregnancies one of the things that happened to me was that my gums bled almost every time I brushed my teeth ... so I went and bought a test yesterday and took it first thing this am ... it was not the darkest of lines, but there is most definitely a line there ... I can't go get another one or do anything else about it until tomorrow ... but I am obviously freaking out ... so the question is ... do I say anything to him? Why should I have to spend the next 24 + hours freaking out on my own ... but if it's not + then will I have freaked him out for nothing ... and if this is the case he will most certainly run for the hills .... and i don't want to lose him ... What is wrong with me? Here I might be pregnant by a man other than my husband and I'm worried about losing him ... yet I also don't want to spend the next 24 hours dealing with this by myself ...
What should I do???????

I'm thinking
it's hard to tell sometimes on here who a reply is directed towards...lol. i was just sharing my experience...and that i felt i was stupidly worried, but as adults we all know that the only sure way to prevent pregnancy would be to not do the deed.
and even when we know we could've done something to prevent it, we still freak out sometimes...even if pregnancy isn't a possibility there are plenty of irresponsible things done...huge risk in my world just doing what i'm doing...
wishing the original poster peace no matter how things turn out...
Does anyone know how OP is?
I agree- A's are hard enough without the added (and stupid) mistake of bringing a baby into it. I went on the pill when my A became physical (my husband has had a vasectomy so I hadnt needed them for years). But yes, we also have to make sure we are 'healthy' and that is difficult because while we get tested- you never know if our respective partners are not having an A of their own.
Its a difficult stitaion but we are adults, not teenagers, and should deal with this stuff with maturity andf responsibility.
Gosh I hope OP is ok.

Actually, I was directing my post to the OP. Just forgot to change the "to" field.
The only thing OP said in regards to birth control is that they don't use it. I just hope that everything works out ok, and that she uses this experience to be more responsible. Yes, birth control can fail and that's a risk everyone on this board takes, but no birth control ALWAYS fails sooner or later.
