Does This Sound Like I Am Pregnant to You?

I have never been pregnant before, so I
don't know what it is like.....please
help! I have been on birth control
(desogen) since May, and still am. I have
not missed more than one pill at a time,
and when that happened took two the next
day as advised. About a week ago or so my
breasts began to hurt and feel vert tight
and firm...it is so bad now that I have to
lay on my back so that they don't hurt so
much. I have also been very dizzy the
past couple of days, and have had a
headache off and on for about a week. I
don't really feel sick, but have had
diarrhea, and about two weeks ago just did
not feel good in general. I have been so
exhausted the past 3 or 4 days that I
could sleep all day if I had the time!
Since I am the pill it is really hard to
tell if I had my period or if it was
spotting becuase all of my periods are
very light now. This time it was more of
a brownish color, and lasted only about 2
days, while usually it is about 4 or 5. I
am not sure whether these are symptoms, or
how long after conception that they would
take place if they are. I realize that it
is rare to become pregnant while on birth
control, however my mom conceived 2 of her
3 children while taking birht
control....so that has me sourt of
worried. I would really appreciate any
advice or comments.....thank you so much!
Thank you!

Did your period come (the
spotting/bleeding) when it was supposed to
come?
You should take a pregnancy test if you
ever suspect pregnancy.
Those can be pregnancy symptoms, but they
can be symptoms of the flu as well. So
take a test.

At first I thought that I may have just
been feeling under the wheather......but
then the flu like symptoms went away.....I
am a DD and often times get pretty sore
before my period.....but this is much
worse.

Haven't done that yet....to be honest with
you the thought had never crossed my mind
that I may be pregnant until
yesterday....that is when my breasts
really started hurting badly....and I am
not sure when it may have happened....or
if it has been long enough yet.

If you have enough pregnancy hormones in
your body to create symptoms such as sore
breasts, you have enough pregnancy
hormones in your body to create an
accurate test.

I have no idea how long ago this may have
happened...if it did. It is hard to tell
when you are on birth control.

Test if you are worried! There is no use
worrying and holding off to test (unless
if its too early of course, which it
doesn't seem like it is in your
situation). It just causes tons of extra
anxiety and worrying. Good luck!

You are right... I know that! We have had
this scare before I was on birth control.
And I don't want to get him all worried
and upset, so I was just not sure if it
has been long enough for an accurate test
otherwise there is no point in both of us
being worried!

I have been reading what other people have
said about their early pregnancy
signs...and it sounds like I may be...and
pretty far along too...if I am in fact
pregnant....one bad thing about being on
the pill!

Yet if you have been experiencing your
'period'... you would not be pregnant.
Just test. No sense in needlessly worrying
over something that might not be.
Good luck.
