Oh, hun. You're too young for sex!
I wasn't even thinking about making out at your age Dx
Maybe that's just me being too much of a nosy mother-hen but still, no matter how mentally mature you are, you should be focusing on school, not worrying about being pregnant!
How old is he, and what is the age of consent in your area? He may get in trouble if you get caught. He'll definitely get in big trouble if you do get pregnant.
But anyhow; don't panic.
If you're consistently sick only in the morning for a week straight, test for pregnancy.
If negative, wait a bit. Test again. If negative, wait a little more, test again. You may want to get tested at a clinic if you're still worried. (it'll be private)
You most likely are not pregnant if you're using birth control and protection properly.
There is still a small chance you could get pregnant but it's not likely.
Even so, the best way to avoid pregnancy is abstinence. I know you probably hear that a lot and it gets tiresome after awhile, but it's true. Mistakes happen.
I'm just glad you're being smart about sex, at least. There's a freshman in choir who believes "pulling out" is adequate protection. Yeah. =/

I think 14 is too young for sex too, but hey isn't this supposed to be a place where we can talk about this kind of thing without worrying about getting judged? Some of the comments here sound really judgemental to me, and while I do think that 14 is too young, The Nerdy Kitten is showing a wonderful sense of responsibility by using protection.... a sense of responsibility that a lot of sexually active teenagers (and hell, even adults) don't show. And I think she needs to be commended for that!
It's extremely unlikely that you'd get pregnant if you're using birth control properly. Especially if you use birth control pills/nuvaring/other-hormonal-options WITH condoms. It was never enough to completely put my mind at ease either, though, even after being married (I always knew I didn't want to have my own kids). I don't worry any more because I had really painful adenomyosis which caused me to go for a hysterectomy (you wouldn't believe how hard it is to convince a doctor to do one when you're in your mid-20s). But if you can't set your mind at ease about it, then it really might be better to be celibate for a while and concentrate on doing well in school.
It's drilled into everyone's head that abstinence is the only way to be sure... but be careful, though - because even if you aren't having intercourse, all it takes is one sperm to make it close enough, so mutual masturbation and even humping in your underwear can get you pregnant too if you aren't using protection. My stepson came about that way, no lie.
Oh, and one more really important thing. If you're going to be having sex, you need to have some idea of a plan for what would happen if you DO get pregnant. Like, do you have an abortion, keep the baby, put it up for adoption? What adults can you count on to help you if you need it? How old is your boyfriend and could he get in legal trouble for having sex with you? Check the laws about age of consent and how much older one person has to be than the other in order for it to count as statutory rape. Because if he's above the age of consent and you aren't, the law doesn't care if it was consensual.
