Ok I wrote here a while ago and my period was all messed up and all. The doctor told me to get away from stress so I did. My boyfriend packed our bags and suprised me with a get away for two. Come to find out my boyfriend did not pack the birth control pills. Sometimes we used a back up method and sometimes we didnt for the past 10 days. We got home two days ago and Im not suppose to have my period for another 13 days. Im probably worrying about nothing but it seems like nothing is going our way. Something is always forgotten these past few months that Im a wreck and just need to know. PLEASE GIVE ME FEEDBACK OR SOMETHING TO GO OFF OF SO I CAN RELAX A LITTLE.

Ok I really need some help. I know I should call the doctor but I would prefer getting some ideas from you ladies before I jump the gun. Besides I dont need my boyfriend finding out right now, I have no idea if its a good thing if I am or not. So please am I more likely to have conceived?

Well if you went 10 days without them and had some unprotected sex, then yes you very well could have gotton pregnant. Only time will tell. At the moment I would try to relax and wait awhile before you go to the doctor to see how things go.

Thats what I thought, but I cant keep track of when Im ovulating and when the perfect time is to ttc. Even though we are not trying I still like to know. Tomorrow we are suppose to go to a friends party and yes there will be drinking. I dont know if I can and I dont want my boyfriend to think something is wrong as I alwas have a few sips of something. Last night we had unprotected sex and he regretted it. Saying that he should of let me pack the bags and he should of brought something. So Im a little worried if I am because I dont know what will happen. I know he will be a good father but I dont know if we will..... If anyone else has some comments on whether or not I am please say something.....!!!!!!!!......

Thats what I wanted to hear. I would love to have a baby right now. My family is always asking when we are going to come home with some great news. My mom even bought a swing and some toys to have at her house for when her grandbaby comes. He on the other hand confuses me. One day he wants one the other he doesnt or not sure. And he acts like its my fault that this happened. I suppose that it is partly but he should stick to one act and not switching to oh we dont need one to damnit i wish we would of used one. It just creates more stress and a little unsure if we are meant to be together. what pills were you on by chance?

If you missed pills there is a chance that you could be pregnant...in which case i would advise that you STOP taking the pills and see what happens....I know there is no evidence of the pill harming a baby but if it were me (and it has been LOL) i would stop just in case...having said that if you do stop i would use extra protection until you know one way or the other and you are protected again...

I remember thatwhen I was on the pill it said to stop taking them if pregnancy was suspected...

Good luck! and i hope you get the result you want.

It is possible. but it does take most people a few months to get birth control out of your system, also if you stop taking them, more than likely it should have caused your period to come a little early, usually you ovulate 7-10 days after the first day of your last period. So use those days to calculate if you may have been ovulating!

I am suppose to be starting my period in about one week now. which i dont knoew if these are symptom or not but for probably the past 2-3 weeks it feels as if i have gas all the time. But you can tell that it is different then the feel of gas. i also get little pains in my lower abdomen which feels like cramps but not to bad. or i get them right under my ribcage. there are other times that i am so tired that i can sleep through out the night but there are times, like last night, that i get up a few times because i cant sleep. or i get too cold or too hot and its set at room temp. this would be my first so i have no idea on how i can tell.
