Oh Sweetie... sending you a huge hug. It's really not uncommon for our bodies to act strangely when we are getting off bcps. It is it's way to get back to a new normal.

Have you tried a hpt recently? I would test again to be sure. It's also not uncommon to have some spotting or bleeding while pregnant, but each person is different and in that case, I would call the doctor, even if you think it could be a possiblitly. GOOD LUCK!!!!

Thanks Crystal, I appreciate your response. I haven't taken a hpt in the past week, I will get one tomorrow. I hate testing so much - I don't want to get so anxious but I can't help it. I will also call the doc on monday... we'll see what happens.

Hon, go to the dollar tree. They have tests for $1 and they're just as accurate. It's possible you were just testing too early. Crystal is right about the adjustment off the pill. My dr. told me to give it 6 months, so you'd be beyond that. :) Good luck with trying to conceive. My dh was deployed 2004-2005.

Thanks Cindy, that is good to know! My mom kept telling me that it was a little early to test too :)
