Here is my situation. I am on Alesse (sp?) and was a day late in starting my new pack. So I took two pills that day and two the next day and continued with one a day after that. We had sex about a week after I started the new pack. I am terrified of getting pregnant and I swear as soon as I start my period I am going to bring the possibility of a vasectomy up to my hubby. The stress is unbearable! LOL
I do not have *any* symptoms except the I have what *seems* to be an increase in vaginal secretions (sorry so graphic). No sore boobs, no nausea, no decrease in energy level, etc. etc. I am due to start my period any day. On the weeks I don't take the pill, I usually start a few days after the last pill of the pack, but haven't yet. I am not completely freaking out yet as it has only been two days. Just a little worried.
I have three children and I had all those symptoms with them. I am 39 years old. Which makes me wonder if I am any less likely to get pregnant than say if I were 29? Does that make sense? I know that I would be less fertile if I were not on the pill and trying to get pregnant, but in my situation would my age even come into play? Just wondering if anyone would know.
Okay enough rambling. Off to worry somemore! LOL

Whew! After a long night of worrying and analyzing every little thing. I even thought about getting out of bed at 2:00am to go by a test!! I got myself **so** worked up. This morning I got my period and after talking to hubby I realized that not only did I worry for nothing, but what I was most worried about was telling hubby - and he says to me, "Why were you so worried? We have great kids and I am sure if we had had another one he or she would be, too." I love that man!
I will be thinking about all you girls out there that are wanting a baby or those that are hoping not to be pregnant and I will be hoping that whatever it is that is the right thing for you, happens. God bless.
