Question
I had a baby five months ago and every since I have been on birth control. well on the 9th of this month i went off my period and that same night me and my boyfriend had sex and he came in could I be pregnant?

Answer
Hi Shontay,

Love your name! Anyway, thanks for your question. It's possible that you could be pregnant. Some women have an irregular cycle and can get pregnant even if you just went off your period. So I would be really careful if you don't want to have another baby at this point.

If you are pregnant, will it be a huge problem? You can email me at CHERYL51@aol.com and we can talk more. And you can join our pregnancy group. I don't know how old you are but we have two groups.

Hope to hear from you soon and let me know an update. Oh, and if you ever need a free pregnancy test, you can find a center to have one at http://www.optionline.org or call 1-800-395-HELP.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
