2 questions

Ok I have a question..it might sound dumb.  BUT as most of you know I was on bc and I missed some last week and stopped taking them all together because I had sex on a day that I dint take them.  Now..I know and understand that there will be spotting from missing and from discontinuing, but how do I know if its that or implantation?  


Ok and another question.  For any of your ladies out there that did get pregnant on the pill...did you just get pregnant or did you miss some along the way?   And if you missed some along the way...how many? and far between?  Just so I can get a picture of all of this for my issues.  Thanks girls.  I am confused.

Yeah...you are probably right. :(  I just thought that since I messed up it wouldnt be hard to get pregnant this time..cause i did it once before. Oh well. Thanks. Good luck to you!!

The bleed is prob. from coming off the pills. Implantation bleeding is not a common preg. symptom. If you didn't have it with your other kids, you are less likely to have it. So my guess would be because of the pill.

Wow..alot of replies! I like it! haha  Anyways....hopefulmommy...yeah I might be spotting from that..but I have cramps..like not huge cramps I am just crampy. Ya know?  Did you get that way?

Jame...yeah see and thats exactly what I wanna know! lol I wish there was a way to tell.  And I know that with my daughter..I got pregnant on the pill.  I only missed one by like 6 hours and had my period.. BAM PREGO!  And I continued to take them cause well I obviously dint know. And then I dint get my period the next month.  Its a really weird story.  So idk.

Bluesky...I am glad we are in the same boat! Least I aint the only odd one. haha ...we need to figure this C Rap out!

It sounds to me like you are spotting from starting your cycle from missing more than a day. When I take BC, if I miss them for two days I spot and actually will start my cycle if I dont take the missed pills. My doc just told me to take the ones I missed to catch up and then the spotting usually stops by the next day or so. I wouldnt stress though, I used to miss them often for two days at a time. I would just take the missed pills and go on about things like normal.

My mom got pregnant on bc and she didnt miss any pills. And I really dont think there is a way you can tell the difference between breakthrough bleeding and implantation. Good luck!

Hey, Its me again girl.

Once again I have the same question.  Posted one my own on here.  you think you could be starting your period early because you stopped taking the BC all together?  I stopped all together too and I am wondering the same thing myself.  I did some reading and found out that spotting/implantation bleeding happens about 5-7 days after conception and can last a few days, make you think its just an early period.  So I guess what we need to know here is if you stop taking BC then will your period come early, right?  Does anyone have an answer for that?

Thanks! I only missed like 2 right in a row.  And now I am spotting with cramps.  Did you spot when you missed and did you cramp at all?
