Ok, I am 18 I am on the pill but I do not take it regulary, I only take it when I think of it. Me and my boyfriend have sex alot and we love each other and have talked about what we would do if i became pregnant. anyway, recently I have been having period like cramping even though I had just had my period, and i have been having nausea just out of no where it comes and goes sometimes just because and sometimes from smells like the other day i got nauseas from smelling a cheese burger and i love cheese burgers. I have also been getting nauseas from the smell of ciggs, which is very odd and has never happened to me before considering i used to smoke not to long ago. I have also been very moody. Do you think it is possible I could be pregnant? I already bought a hpt I was told to wait till July 6 to take it. In the mean time Id like to hear some opinions on whether you think I could be or not. I already know it is very possible, just try not to make me feel like an idiot for asking please.

First off, you should be taking the Pill regularly or not at all. Even missing a couple of Pills per cycle can mess with your system. It's unlikely you're pregnant if you've just taken your period. It's possible but VERY rare. So with that in mind, I doubt you're pregnant. My advice is to stop taking the Pill until the first day of your next cycle; use condoms until then. And then start taking the Pill EVERY day that you are supposed to.

Oh yeah,you think he's gonna be there for you?You'll probly find yourself alone trying to raise a kid.It aint easy being pregnant and it deffinitely aint easy being a teen mom!Even at 25 it has been the hardest time of my life.As soon as my bf found out I was pregnant he decided he didn't want a kid...Now he has a warrant out for his arrest for threatening me,stalking me,and domestic voilence.And he is 22,has a job,his own place,etc. I have been hospitalized 3 times and am currently hospitalized where I have been for the past 18 days due to complications,I have never seen him once since being flown here.Please,please be very careful and make a wise decision because just because you love him right now doesn't mean you will in 5or 6 months.Just make sure this is something you truly want to do because it will not only change your life forever but will affect this baby.

Turnip and Its Hybrid Offspring


Much confusion surrounded the origins, even the identity, of turnips and rutabagas, or "Swedes," for a long time. They are distinctly different species.

Most varieties of turnip are white-fleshed and most varieties of rutabaga are yellow-fleshed, but there are also white-fleshed rutabagas and yellow-fleshed turnips. Rutabaga leaves are smooth like cabbage leaves, while those of the turnip are somewhat rough, with sparse, stiff "hairs" over them.

The most significant difference between them, however, is in the make-up of their mechanisms of heredity, the structures of their individual cells. The turnip has 20 chromosomes, while the rutabaga has 38. And thereby hangs a tale-the tale of the origin of the rutabaga.

Study Indicates a Turnip-Cabbage Cross

Recent botanical detective work indicates that a rather rare kind of hybridization between some form of cabbage (18 chromosomes) and turnip (20 chromosomes) resulted in the new species, rutabaga (20 + 18 = 38 chromosomes).


No one knows when or where this occurred, but the new species was probably first found in Europe some time in the late Middle Ages. There was no record of it until 1620 when the Swiss botanist Caspar Bauhin described it.

Turnip (Brassica rapa) is of ancient culture, many distinct kinds having been known to the Romans at the beginning of the Christian Era. Some of those varieties bore Greek place names, indicating earlier culture and development by the ancient Greeks.

In the first century Pliny described long turnips, flat turnips, round turnips. He wrote of turnips under the names rapa and napus. In Middle English this latter term became nepe, naep in Anglo-Saxon. One of these words, together with turn ("made round"), became our common word "turnip."

Man appreciated the usefulness of the turnip during the prehistoric development of agriculture, and the plant was so easy to grow in so many places that it became widely distributed all the way from the Mediterranean across Asia to the Pacific.

The European types of turnip, our commonest kinds, developed in the Mediterranean area. The basic center of the Asiatic kinds is in middle Asia, west of the Himalayas. There are also two secondary centers-eastern Asia and Asia Minor.

The European type of turnip was grown in France for both food and stock feed at least as early as the first century after Christ.

In the England of Henry VIII, turnip roots were boiled or baked, the tops were cooked as "greens," and the young shoots were used as a salad. (In parts of our South today turnip leaves for greens are called "turnip salad.")

The turnip was brought to America by Jacques Cartier, who planted it in Canada in 1541. It was also planted in Virginia by the colonists in 1609 and in Massachusetts in the 1620's. The Indians adopted its culture from the colonists and soon grew it generally.

Since colonial times the turnip has been one of the commonest garden vegetables in America. It is primarily a cool-weather crop, suitable for summer culture only in the northernmost States or at high altitudes.

European varieties of turnips are biennial. One Oriental variety commonly grown here, however, called Shogoin, will go to seed in its first season if planted in the spring.

A few varieties of leaf turnips (no enlarged root) such as Seven Top are grown only for greens. The leaves of the turnip are usually rich in the minerals and vitamins that are essential to health, but the roots have a relatively low food value. In this country the roots are usually eaten boiled, either fresh or from pit or cellar storage. In Europe kraut is commonly made from the sliced roots.

Rutabaga Also Called "Swede"

Rutabaga (Brassica napobrassica) gets its name from Swedish rotabagge. In England and Canada it is commonly called "Swede," or "Swede turnip." The French called it navet de Suede (Swede turnip), chou de Suede (Swede cabbage), and chou navet jaune (yellow cabbage turnip). It was known in the United States about 1800 as "turnip-rooted cabbage." Although common names suggest a Scandinavian origin, this is not certain.

Rutabaga was apparently known on the Continent many years before it was grown in England. It was little known in England in 1664 when it was grown in the royal gardens. It was used for food in France and southern Europe in the 17th century. Both white and yellow-fleshed varieties have been known in Europe for more than 300 years.

The rutabaga requires a longer growing season than our turnips, but, like the turnip, it is sensitive to hot weather. Its culture is therefore confined largely to the northernmost States and Canada and to northern Europe and Asia. It is a staple crop in northern Europe, but a minor crop in America and in the Orient. It is more nutritious than the turnip, chiefly because it contains more solid matter

whats the point of taking the pill if you only take it whenever you think of it??????
and if that is the case then why aren't you using condoms????
with all that said, I have no clue if you are pregnant, you said you just had your period. If thats the case you shouldn't ovulate for another couple of days...........if you dont want to get pregnant why dont you go get the shot, so you dont have to remember to take the pill or get an IUD.
I got pregnant at 17 she is now 5 and I have a 9 month old and I am 5 months pregnant again, and I can tell you FOR SURE I was not ready to be a parent when I had Laelah at 18!!
I resented her in a way because I thought she kept me from doing the things that I wanted to do. I no longer had the freedom that I waited for my whole childhood. Of course now it's much much easier but I can tell you it was EXTREMELY hard to get used to, and I'm not even with her father anymore. We were suppossed to get married blah blah blah. Well as soon as that little girl popped out he went running!! (not saying your guy will) but these are all things you have to consider before taking the pill whenever you feel like it.
Oh and one more thing!......kids are EXPENSIVE so if you like to shop for yourself HAHAHAHAHAHAHA kiss that goodbye for awhile. You will have to save up for things you want now unless you and your man have extremely good jobs.
Dont mean to sound harsh but you did want our opinions.

ashleymama and JasminesMommy ,
thank you . I think that your advise was the best I have gotten off this site. I have graduated school and I can get a job. I never planned on going to college, my boyfriend is a marine so I already know that he is not going to be around alot because of his work. I have never really wanted all the freedom, I have done alot of stuff as a teenager and it all got old over a year ago.( I am not trying to say that I wont want freedom later in life, because as far as I can tell most parents want freedom at some point in their life.) My boyfriend has already started saving just incase I am pregnant, and I have never been the kind of person to want to go and buy new stuff all the time. I am more of a buy for others kind of person. Me and my boyfriend are actually very excited about the possibility that I am. and JasminesMommy I wasnt reading it and thinking that you are a bitch. I have gone out with guys that I thought i loved and thought they loved me, now I know it wasnt really love. But what me and my boyfriend have is very different, then what I had with the other guys. As of right now hes somewhat of a dream come true. My parents love him, I love him. He has even gone out and bought food and cooked dinner for me and my family. So thank you for your opinions.
