I Think My Girlfriend Could Be Pregnant
My girlfriend and I have been goin out for some time now, recently we got close and it felt right and when went for it. Well the night before she bumped her head and had major headaches but in the morning started having stomach pain too. She also said she felt maybe something was different, She has been sick all day throwing up and her headache still is staying with her. Should i stop worrying and see if she gets her period or could all this pain and throwing up be from having an iron fall on her..............?
