It's kind of sad, but at the age of 16, my best friend thought that the day after you had sex, you'd know that you were pregnant because you got morning sickness. I had spend hours - literally - explaining that the morning after the egg is probably newly fertilized and not even emplanted in the Uteran wall. She thought for sure the day after sex you'd have a baby in there.
