Stated another way: If you do not want to be(come) an unwed mother and to have the future course of your life changed forever, then you must take responsibility for protecting Number One--you.
If the fellow does not want to be an unwed father and to have the future course of his life forever changed then he must take responsibility for protecting Number One--himself.
Making love or having sex should be done in partnership; although, having said that, this is the one time when each party should have a selfish streak in order to minimize the dangers (pregnancy, STDs, etc.)
Your post upsets my sensibilities! Why, if you do now want to become pregnant and are now experiencing all this angst, why in the world would you be having unprotected sex and then asking US! if you could be pregnant? Before you engage in adult activities for which you must also take on adult responsibility, would you not learn as much about the workings of your body and his, first? This site is a fantastic resource, yet for the most part, its greatest benefit is up front before the f/act.
The younger a girl is the more unpredictable her chances for becoming pregnant. That you do not seem to know this or hold this belief to be self evident tells me you are not mature enough to have intercourse.
> What if I went to the bathroom straight afterward and most of the cum seeped out of me? Should I be worried?
ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY, INDUBITABLY, YES Anytime P meets up with V and there is a mixing of fluids there is a possibility of pregnancy. It only takes one out of a million sperm cells and not all the semen will leak out. Some is absorbed, some continue the journey.
Right now you have or will be playing a version of Russian Roulette. Please consider the penis to be a fully loaded cannon instead of a six-shooter with only one bullet in the chamber. Anytime it is pointed in your direction and anytime its "ammo" hits on or around the vagina, there is every likelihood of it meeting up and joining with an egg.
You have asked very good questions. My only complaint is that with an activity so important to the human condition why didn't you bother to learn as much as you could before engaging in risky behavior?
> know we should have been more careful, I'm aware of that now and plan to be more prepared next time.
OK, so you did not know this before having sex, although, I'm presuming you did know that intercourse sometimes leads to one or more babies--yes? Please, please, avail yourself the the tremendous amount of reading material available on this site before having sex again.
