beginning stages of obsession: part one

Good day all!!!
I was on BCP and the first day of my lmp was 6/25/06. I did not start a new pack of BCP (long story..moved and lost them...) and DH and I have been repeatedly having unprotected intercourse...(Enjoying the new place lol). So, here is the million dollar question - could I be? When is too soon to test? It's possible so soon after BCP?
I'm crampy/bloated/headaches/constipated/metal taste (ewww gross :/ ) ...but these can be normal pms symptoms...or symptoms coming off of the BCP - I don't know!!!
Now you know this is silly because I have 2 children. Shouldn't I know!!! It's been a while since I was preggers and I just remember baby #1: vomiting. baby#2: typical pms symptoms/no period
Now obviously I do not know my cycle due to being on BCP so have no idea of even when "late" would be!
So I'm starting to obsess. Maybe we can obsess together.
We obviously are not ttc, but if so, it's a welcome blessing :)

Hi there!
I'm all for obsessing!! DH and I aren't trying either (yet), but every month I begin my obsessing over every possible symptom I'm experiencing. I keep hoping that one of these months it actually ends up with a nice BFP on an hpt!! ;)

I would say to be safe, you should wait to test at least until the day AF is due.
Good luck!! I hope you do get your bfp soon...and feel free to obsess here! :)

I am right there with you. I have 2 kids myself and I have no idea if what I am feeling is pregnancy or just wishing. I am dizzy, forgetful, tender nipples, headaches and diarria. I feel silly but like you, was on the pill and have no idea when I should expect period and all that.I am excited and nervous. Good luck to you and I wish you all the best.
