Sure could be!: The world is full of children whose parents used the withdrawal method. It is not a reliable or very effective form of birth control. Check a pregnancy test. Assume you are pregnant until proven otherwise & avoid alcohol, nicotine, recreational drugs and over the counter supplements except for vitamins, folic acid & calcium unless okayed by your doc.If no period in 5-7 days repeat test or see MD.
