OK I am worried a little.... Maybe overreacting

Question

Ok so I am getting a little worried and it may be way to early to start, but as most of you know I had my son almost excally 6 months ago and have been on birthcontrol since I was aprox 7 weeks postpartum. Any ways I have missed a pill or two before but they were always end pills (after ovulation would occur) Well back on December 5th I missed my pill ( Active pill #6) Dh and I have been using the pull out method and normally I would not worry too much about it but on Saturday evening I began getting very neauseas and lightheaded. My breasts have been itchy and I have been (the last few hours or so) having a tightning and pulling sensation in my abdomen. My concern is that I may be pregnant agian. I have 6 days left until AF is due. It is too early to test but am very intrested to see what you ladies think. Thanks!

I am on the pill. I dont trust the IUD. My DH and I use the pull out method as well as the birth control!!! The latex free condoms irratate me. Hmmm I am so confused. My father in law is going to watch Julian while I go run a few errands ( We got a lot of ice on the ground) and I am going to stop by the $ store and pick up a test! Will let yall know what I find out! I think I am close enough to AF being due that I can take one!

What about an IUD or pill?

The pull out "method" doesnt work! =)  

There are tons of other options.. I have a mild latex allergy as well and there are latex free condoms you can use. Just ideas. If you dont want to fall pregnant, the pull out "method" isn't birth control and I dont want to see you all stressed out all the time! =D  

Good luck!

Thanks. My DH and I cant use condoms because I am allergic but he has been using the pull out method. We really dont have any other options! Thanks for your input ladies.

Maybe if you test you'll be less stressed out.

I think you need to wait a few days to test.. 

Are you using protection if you don;t want to get preggers again so soon? Just curious...

Linzola1 · Answer

I am a little more nervous because I am having chunkier CM now and I had that about 2-3 days befor I found out I was preggers with Julian! I have 4 days until AF is due should I go ahead and test tomorrow???? Hmmmm (BTW I think I said yesterday that I only had 6 days until AF I was wrong! Hmmm I am nervous) Any takes on this

Thanks everyone I think I may be getting a bug. I just have not been feeling well. I think I will wait and see if AF arrives

I agree with Laura, missing one pill will probably not do anything.  I cant say about your symptoms because when I took pills (long time ago) I had every single side effect that you could imagine well after the first 3 months. I had hot flashes, my bbs got HUGE and they hurt constantly, my hair fell out...everything and I switched pills and still bad side effects until I stopped them and got a copper IUD.
I hate BC pills.
You could be pregnant but I think that the chances are very very very low.  If I'm wrong then congratulations! :)

Ohhh.. I am not sure.. You are at that point where it is too early to test, and it must be driving you crazy. I would be inclined to guess that if you only missed ONE active pill, you are probably not pregnant, but you know your body, and it IS possible.. I would just say unlikely.. Good luck and keep us posted!
