Not sure....

Ok, so I came off depo starting in July after 4 1/2 years (way to long I know..) but anyway, came off it without much problem, no adverse side effects (no nipple/breast soreness, weight gain, etc). Only problem was a little cramping, but that's why I went on it to begin with. Anyway, slept with my b/f in Nov and again in Dec. and I'm wondering if I may be pregnant.

~sore breats....I can't say this one enough...it hurts to cross my arms over my chest...
~cramping (but I've always had bad cramps regardless, plus IBS)
~oilier than normal skin...had about 6 breakouts at once..something that isn't normal for me.
~no morning/evening/midday sickness, but I've never been one to get sick..I have massive sinus issues (and currently have a sinus issue) but no pukies as I like to call them.
~no period since coming off the depo, but was told by my dr. that i may or may not have a period and i could still get pregnant
~taken the HPTs, but keep getting negative result. could've been too early, but I'm thinking of making an appt tomorrow just to make sure.

Had a cousin who took like 10 HPTs and they all came back negative, yet she was pregnant, and had to find out by ultrasound. Wondering if I could be in the same boat...

any and all opinions are welcome. This would be a blessing, not a bad thing at all if I am pregnant, and if not, there's always next time!

I'm guess your bodys still adjusting to getting off the shot. In MOST cases If the hpts are neg then your not pg. I would go to the Dr and find out exactly what's going on. Good luck
