Very early lactation can be one of the early signs of pregnancy, Acouwaila. The hormones progesterone, estrogen and prolactin begin stirring soon after conception and cause that response in some women. It's time to confirm the pregnancy with a test, which you can get at the drugstore, and then see a doctor or nurse practitioner, who will re-confirm the test and then go over basic prenatal information.

If your girlfriend is pregnant and she, too, doesn't believe in abortion, can I suggest a very courageous and generous option that I wish 99.9% of unwed pregnant young folks would consider instead? Adoption. There are thousands of couples out there who are ready and willing, financially and emotionally, to adopt that baby, love it wholeheartedly and provide it with the advantages it deserves. Something to think very seriously about.

Best of luck as you face this overwhelming time, Acouwaila. Tootsie gave you very wise advice up there about future prevention/protection. Sex causes pregnancies. I know you already know this, but now you've had that proven the hard way, assuming this isn't all a big false alarm. Much love to you, your girl, and the new life.
