Pregnancy after going off of the pill??
| Mon, 09-22-2003 - 2:40pm |
Hi everyone! I'm new to this board and have a question I'd love someone to give me advice on. I've been on the pill for about 8 years now. This past month I went off the pill in hopes of concieving a baby in the near future. I am a few days late and have symptoms like spotting, sore breasts (that's the worst!!) and nausea... I took a test a couple of days ago and it was negative.... Should I wait a little longer and take another one??? HELP!!

Here is my experience:
I stopped taking the pill in January. My next period after stopping was about 2 weeks late. I was absolutely convinced that I was pregnant--I was nauseous, my boobs hurt, and I was late. Ended up that stopping the pill screwed up my cycle and I started having 35 day cycles, instead of 28 day cycles as was when I was on the pill. That happened for a the next couple of months, had the symptoms every month and was convinced I was pregnant. The symptoms you are having could be because of getting off the pill, or you could very well be pregnant and it's just to early to detect yet. I stopped the pill in January and found out I was pregnant in May. Good luck to you!
