He knows!!! Is this guy even worth going back to? It's very frustrating - I have never had an issue such as this before.
Pregnancy can cause a change in refraction. Usually more myopic. I only change contacts (temporarily) if the patient needs the change to function. You need to see your doctor and let him know that you are pregnant.

I don't have any more contacts, but the prescription, I believe, was the same. I should also mention that I am 15 weeks pregnant with my 4th baby, so another reason I am reluctant to change my prescription so drastically. I am thinking maybe I should keep my "old" prescription until the baby is born and then get my eyes rechecked? I don't know...I am just very frustrated that I have to go back. I've never had this happen before.
Do I need to give these new contacts a full week or can I call him now? I have had a headache all day. Last night when I removed my contacts, I put on my old glasses to watch TV in bed and my vision was noticeably better (and more comfortable). I am not sure I want to wait a week - I have always had noticeable improvement after a new prescription, not an adjustment period!
You need to go back to the doctor with your old contact lens and have the vision compared.
