Just In My Head??
Posted: 03-13-06 17:24pm

Hey everyone:) okay, I wasn't sure if I should post this here or on the birth control forum, so I just decided to give it a shot here first. I am kind of freaking out at the moment and need a little re insurance from you guys. First let me tell you that I am 19 years old and have a 7 month old little boy so, as you can imagine, I have no desire to have another child any time soon. Okay, here is my situation... And please don't flip out on me and tell me that i'm crazy:) I am currently taking the oral contraceptive camila. I started these pills the sunday before this past sunday (the sunday of my period). My husband and I were a little nervous about starting a birth control and not using condoms because I was on the pill ovcon 35 when I became pregnant with my son. So, I read .A.L.L of the instructions and we began having unprotected sex 48 hours after I took the first pill. After we had sex that night, I went to take a bath and noticed a "sticking" feeling inside my vagina. Out of curiousity, I felt around inside of there and noticed that my cervix was hard and very opened. The thought that maybe I was ovulating and had just became pregnant jumped right into my mind. I finally talked myself out of that until the day before yesterday when I started to have diarreah without cramping and the urge to pee all of the time. I know it sounds crazy (and i'm sure you all will say it is) but this is exactly what happened when I got pregnant with my son. I got diarreah around the first week or so that I was pregnant and I had to pee alot for some reason (i guess it was just my body changing or something).Also, I have that feeling, ya know that "i know that I pregant" feeling, just like with my first one. I thought that maybe these were just side effects of the birth control pills but I read and found nothing about dirreah or the urge to pee. My heart is beating out of my chest just thinking about it because we can't have another baby right now! I just need someone to talk to about this and like I said before, a little re insurance. What should I do? Is it just in my head because I became pregnant on the pill before or is it possible that I am pregnant agian? Thanks so much guys!

you said you can't have another kid now, so I was trying to cover all the bases. I think it's probably too late for the morning-after pill, so it's crossing your fingers and hoping, I suppose.

Good luck on the not being knocked up. :)

Hi candykissedmoma

i haven't taken the pill for a few years so my information might be out of date, but I thought you had to wait at least a week before the pill was safe? Probably different with different brands too.

Did you take it on the first day of your period....? If not, then maybe you were too close to ovaulation to stop it.

I hope it all works out ok for you. Maybe you are worrying about nothing.

Best wishes, sandy

I'm glad you think it's funny! It's so not! This is scary stuff! Thanks for the "good luck"! You didn't help at all... Maybe made things a little worse. I'm not tryin to health forum at you, I just think that maybe you should pick your words a little more carefully!

hey! The instructions say (and i'm reading it right now) "it is best to take your first pill on the first day of your menstrual period. If you decide to take your first pill on another day, use a backup method everytime you have sex for the next 48 hours." that means it was okay to have sex un protected sex 48 hours later right?
Okay, now to answer your other question, my doctor told me to start the pills on the sunday of my period so that is what I did, which was the sunday b4 this past. Thanks so much for replying and being so nice:)

I would think the information on the pack would be right. Maybe the discharge is a side effect from the pill. For me, pregnancy symptoms were just the same as being pre-menstural- so I couldn't really tell.


I guess the other thing i'm wondering is do you think you really ovulated 48 hours after your period ended? ( you said you took your pill on the sunday of your period). I know some women have irregular cycles like that.

Regards, sandy

i'v read that you ovulate something like 2 weeks after your period but the thing that worries me is, this is how it happended with my last pregnancy... I had just eneded my period and began my pills. But, one of the reasons for me starting my pills (not the current pills but the ones I became pregnant on) was beause my period was irregular and the doc said that the pills would help fix that. My period have been normal ever since my son was born so, maybe you are right... Maybe it wasn't possible for me to be ovulating so soon after period. I hope you are right! Thanks for the encouragement!:)

Does anyone know if your cervix is normally hard and opened during ovulation?? That would be nice to know, since mine was. Thanks!

For most, if not all birth control pills, you must take them for a week before having unprotected sex, so there's a chance.

Posted: 03-14-06 12:30pm

I was going though reading everything everyone said and no one meanted the whole diarreah thing and the pee thing is that really possiable sign? Im really sorry I dont have any idea about the birth control i've never taken any. Now that im try'n to have a baby its so hard but im having alot of strange things happening to me like diarreah and I pee bout every 20 mins. I cant remember my last normal period I was irruglar to start with but now all I do is spot, sometimes its everytime I pee. But I havent had to use a tampon or pad in months. I got steatch marks on my abs.. I get strange pains on my sides down their im in a mystery mood daily I dont want my boyfriend to touch me my boobs have goss bumps and they feel like there hanging.I took 1 test it said no baby. So now that everything is happening I wont take another test I get really emotional when it says negtive. Any of this happen to you?? Help! Im going crazy g2g I have to pee! Lol

Wish I could help you but I don't know too much about bc. I do however know people like you who became pregnant while on birth control. I would say that it is a possibility but then again I think that maybe you're just stressing out....

Just because you have dirreah have to pee a lot doesn't mean that your preggers. I would hate having to pee every 20 mins or so. But if you had those during your first pregnancy you may be pregnant. I didnt' start peeing a lot until I started getting big. You may have an infection like a uti or some thing like that.

As far as knowing what my cervix is like when I am ovulating....Ummm I don't really think that I have touched it. Never really tried. You may need to ask your doctor about that one.
