I'm having quite a time here finding out if I am pregnant or not. I'm hoping that someone can help me out.

I've been on birthcontrol for five years. I have to admit I'm not the post punctual about when I take them...but I haven't missed a pill. I usually have a cycle of about 21 days.

Two weeks ago (without any symptoms) I thought "hmmm....could I be pregnant?" Weird. I know! These past two weeks I've had some symptoms that could be PMS or PG. Swollen/sore breasts, moody, headaches, A LOT of dizziness, and just these past two days running to the bathroom.

Although my packet of pills say I should have started my period yesterday, I usually spot for the entire week before. NO spotting this month. So..I should have started yesterday..however NOTHING.

To answer your question. YES!! I've taken TWO pregnancy tests and both have been negative. (One was this morning) My husband and I are going crazy. We feel like we are just imagining everything. Help me not feel so crazy. PLEASE!!!

Not taking BC pills the same time everyday, can through off your cycle. You could also be having a longer one. The mind is also a crazy place where you can just quickly think something and your body can react. Causing IPS. ( Imaginary PG Symptoms) Horrible Isn't it! I would wait a few more days and test again. If it is still neg. call your DR and get a blood test.


Good Luck.
