Pregnancy chances

[medquest48]

My boyfriend and I have recently decided to start trying to have a baby.  I was taking Yaz and had my period 30Jun-1July.  I continued with the pill until the 9th of July and decided to quit mid cycle (was going to finish out the pack but forgot 2 and a row and said to heck with it).  We had sex two separate times after quitting the pill, then on the 11th I got my period again and it lasted until the 13th.  We've had sex several times since then and I know it's only been a week since I got my "pill quiting" induced period, but could I be pregnant.  I've been ridiculously tired, headaches, nauseous and have this weird almost crampy feeling in my lower abdoman. I've been pregnant before (we did not have the baby tho), and I had many of the same feelings.  Even when I went to the doctors they were surprised at how soon I was able to "just know."  I'm just not sure b/c I got a period within days of quiting the pill.  What is the likelihood that I could be pregnant.  Should I be going off my period at the end of June to determine if I'm late, or the period in mid July?

Well, my suspicions were right!  I had 2 positive tests last night.  I'm scheduled to see the doctor tomorrow.  My boyfriend and sister thought I was being crazy when I told them I thought I was... guess I know my body!  Weird!

Thanks for the input/advice!

Most likely the symptoms you are experience are your body adjusting to not having the extra hormones from the BCP pills. Based on the dates of your bleeding and timing of intercourse it's not likely that you would have gotten pregnant (but not impossible either).  It may take your body several months to readjust and get your cycle back on track.  The best way to determine if you are pregnant is to wait 2 weeks from the last time you had intercourse and take a test.  If you want to be certain wait 2 1/2 to 3 weeks.

Quitting the pill early and irregulated your periods, I am not sure if you would be due on end of June or mid July to be honest, I'd presume it'd be nearer the mid July date. Either way I doubt you'd get a accurate result if you took a test, if I were you I'd wait til the end of July to take a test, then if you get a negative result and dont come on take another one mid Aug. However, like you I knew two weeks after conception that I was pregnant, I just knew I was, can't explain why..I just felt different, I had another week til I was due on and I didn't even use first morning urine when I tested, but it came up positive, although I wouldn't recommend it, you could always do a test now if you think you are, just don't take the results too seriously if it's a negative!! Best of luck xx
