Not Sure
Posted: 09-13-05 09:35am

I have been on the pill for 4 years now. Up until a few months ago my period was very normal. It came every wednesday morning right at the same time. Then, back in june I had surgery and that kind of threw my body out of whack! My period came on thursday, but lasted like my normal 3-5 days. Well, in the end to beginning of july, I missed a pill for the first time in my life! When I did this, my period started a week early, and lasted for a full week. My period just this last month in august was perfectly normal. It came wednesday morning, so I was happy because my body was going back to normal!

My period for this month, however, not the case!! My period came on a friday, which is two days late for my cycle, and only lasted a day and a half! This is totally not me! Then, I was thinking, as to what did I do? I didn't miss any pills at all. When I got to thinking, on august 12, to be exact, I had to start antibiotics for a sinus infection. I know antibiotics can mess the pill up, so we used extreme caution. I did have a concern though, becuase my fiance' and I had sex it seems like. I think we had sex within that week, like on a monday or tuesday, and august 12 was a friday. I know sperm can live up to a week in the body, so I am not wondering if this is what caused things to get messed up!

The thing is, I know the pill is 99% effective if used correctly, but for my body, this last period was weired. I don't want to sound to gross, but it was really dark, and light pink. I don't think I would classify it as a period. It wasn't heavy at all! I mean half of the time, I didn't even wear a tampon!!

I would be so happy if I was pregnant, but fiance' is getting ready to go through law school, and he just wants to make sure our finances are in order. I know he is just trying to be responsible.

I took a test yesterday after lunch, and it came back negative, so I don't know if it is still too early. And see yesterday was the 12, and remember a month ago yesterday is when I went on the antibiotic. I don't know if that has anything to do with it or not.

What do you guys think? Does my last period sound like I could be pregnant? I would be so excited!!

Sorry it was so long, but I appreciated your answers!!! I am going crazy!!!

It is possible--since you are on the pill mayybe you should go to dr soon and get a blood test it shows up faster and is much more accurate. We wouldnt want to take the pill any longer than you have to if your are pregnant.

I hope you are

Thank you so much for your reply! I just really hope I am! And yeah, that is the other thing! I really don't want to continue taking my pill if I am.
Thanks again for your reply!

Well, I took another test on friday morning, and it was negative :( . Anyway, I have been having lower back pain. I don't know if it is just coincidental that I am having that or not! It is really strange. Who knows, I may just need a new mattress! Lol! Did anyone on here experience lower back pain this early? I am just curious? I am not under any stress, so I know it is not that my muscles are tense, it is just in my lower and sometimes middle back. This all started happening last week. Not sure, again!! Please help, I don't go to my doctor until the first of this next month.

Yes I did. I had pretty much every symptom known to man, and right away with very very many of them.

Well, I just keep feeling nausious after I eat. It just feels like anything I eat, sits in my throat, then I get a waive of nausea that comes over me! I just hope I can figure out what is going on! Fatfamily, I know that you and your daughter couldn't get the urine tests to come out positive until a couple of months passed. If I am pregnant, maybe I am like you guys! I just want to get this blood test done, so I know for sure. I would be so happy if I was :) .

Well, in the meantime, I have taken another hpt, and it came out negative. I took it mid afternoon yesterday! The weired thing is, I just feel so different. Everything from my eating habits, to my attitude---my poor fiance' gets the raw end of the deal on my mood swings! Poor thing! Anyway, he has noticed how my moods have been incredibly different. I too, have noticed. One minute I will be mad and yelling at him over not putting up his dirty dishes, then the next thing I know I am crying, and then want to go have sex!! I don't know it is so crazy!

Last night after I ate spaghetti, I went and sat down, and got a huge waive of nausia over me that would come and go for about 30 minutes, I had to take a tums to help! I have never had that problem up until a few weeks ago! I just feel bloated all of the time!

I am seriously at my witts end! I hate having to wait to get into the doctor, I don't know what I am going to do!! Does anyone have any advice? I still have one hpt left.
