Pregnancy Suspicion...

Hey. My names Anya, i just turned 16. Ive been on BC for a while now - but it made me sick so I stopped taking it for a while. I started back on it on the 12th of october. That weekend of oct. 17-19 and 24-26 i was with my bf. Recently Ive been having what I percive as preg. symptoms, tender breasts, slightly sore/sensitive nipples, the feeling of being bloated, more frequent urination (2-4 hours apart usualy at 6-8 hours apart), slight nausea, and ofcourse intuitive suspicion... My period isnt due until this coming friday (nov. 7th). According to a ovulation calculator, i was ovulating between the 23-26 of oct. but Ive never marked my periods so I dont know how long my cycle is, I also had a very abnormal period when I came off BC in early oct. that lasted over a week (oct. 3-12th). Anyways, tell me your thoughts. I havent talked to Parents or the BF yet.

Those symptoms sound definitely like pregnancy symptoms. Since you went off the pill - do you not use an alternative contraception? There are HPTs that detect pregnancy slightly earlier than your period. You could try that if you can't wait until you miss your period.

I hope all goes well for you. If you need support, you can count on the ladies here on this board for it. You're not alone.

heheh, thats where it gets odd. i thought he had used a condom (he knew i wasnt on the pill anymore) but when i asked him afterwards because it didnt feel like he had he told me he hadnt but not to worry about it too much because we had gone 3 months without using anything and i hadnt gotten pg. unfortunetly, from years of watching daytime talk shows, ive learned that it only takes one time *slightly annoyed* ... ya i took a test about an hour ago... it was neg with a really REALLY faint second line (2 lines means pos) but its also still a little early for that one... my pd isnt due for 4 more days (this one tests as early as 3 days before your pd but i thought id test anyways because im VERY anxious) Thanks for your support!!
