Ok, Starting to Worry.... Posted: 08-09-06 15:02pm
Well monday I took my patch off. The
weeks before we'd been having unprotected
sex and the night I took it off we did
too. Yesterday we also had sex. Oh and
about an hour ago.
Anyways, my period was due late monday
night, or at it's latest, last night.
Well so far, nothing.
After we had sex, when I wiped myself
immedietly after, before pottying, I saw a
tiny spec of blood, in clot form. So I
figured it was here and went to potty and
nothing. No streaks, nothing.
In all honesty it reminded me of when I
passed the implantation clot when I
conceived with .Kayoni.
I don't know how this could've happened as
i'm on the patch and have been since
.Kayoni's birth.
If it does not come by tonight, or
tomorrow during the day, i'm gonna have to
get a test. This is just what I need. I
swear i'm gonna sue the corporation that
makes the patch if I am indeed pregnant
again!!!
Any words of advise/wisdom?!?

Get a different form of birth control?
Lol the patch sounds like it sucks!!!
Good luck hun, you'll be fine if you are
but I understand your concern and not
wanting to be right away. I don't have
any knowledge on the situation with the
clot but pleeeeease let us know what you
find out :)

No words of advice but I think a few girls
here got pregnant on the patch. I'm
pretty sure dalicia did. This probably
isn't helping...
I hope you get your period! Is it that
you don't want any more kids or you just
didn't want another so soon?
Good luck!

Haha I did the patch and I hated
it....There are too many risk that come
along with it so I finally decided to
throw that crap away..It pulled my skin
off and I have a huge square scar from
it..--although the thing that made me
completely stop the patch was a incident
that happened in the town that I use to
live in...A girl was airlifted from brain
bleeds..She had them because she was on
the patch and smoking cigarettes...--she
ended up dying..So considering that I
smoke ...I totally dropped that crap..
But anyways...I hope that you end up
starting girl...--that would suck to be
pregnant so soon after kayoni
good luck!

I know!! Lol....It's not that being preg.
Would ruin my life, but I just wanted
.Oni to have her quality time...Ya know?
I was on the patch for about a year before
I got preg (6 months after I got off). So
I mean it's not like it's foreign to my
body or anything.
They've got commercials talking about the
patch killing people down here...But I
don't smoke. I'm sure it still has it's
bad effects though. It's just the lazy
woman birth control! Lol!!
I just wanted to start working soon to
bring extra funds in and I had to quit
when I was 5 months because .Oni was
pinching nerves in my back.
I'll test if it doesn't come tonight or
tomorrow. I'll keep yall updated!!

Good luck sweetie. I'm glad you're not
looking at it as a disaster if you are.
Have you thought about getting the coil?
My friend is on the mirena and she loves
it. It's apparently just as effective as
sterilsation. It lasts 5 years and once
you take it out your fertility returns to
normal...

I hope i'm not, but i'm not gonna stress
for the simple fact that that in itself
could cause late pregnancy.
I told my man and he just stared off into
space. Lol...
The only thing that concerns me is I don't
know if I could stand the pain of birth
again so soon. Ya know how after a while
you forget how bad something hurt?? Well,
I still can vividly remember every second
of pain I endured during her birth.
I would of course go drug free again, but
man, it would be like having a flashback!!
Hahaha....Crazy.
Normally after I remove the patch to start
my period I start cramping and getting the
normal pms shortly after. This time,
there's nothing. It kinda bugs me out.

The pain is bad no matter how long you
leave it. I had a really short labour 2nd
time around and they said be prepared for
it to be around an hour this time! Lol
Yep I got pregnant on the patch, using it
right and everything. I was even on it
for over a year until I got pregnant with
brayden. I wouldn't use the patch ever
again.
For real though, get a new birth control.
If your not pregnant get on the ring. I'm
on it and it's comfortable and is kinda
like the patch. You leave it in your
coochie for 3 weeks then take it out for a
week. I am pleased with it.
Goodluck

Man, shlts crazy! How is it incredibly
possible!? Lol...I know it's happened.
One of my closest fridn had her 2 children
on the pill.
Another friend of mine got pregnant on the
patch as well.
But the crazy thing is...I always have a
glitch of doubt when I hear " I got
pregnant on the patch/pill" but then it
hits someone close to you and you're
shocked!
If it were to happen to me...I think i'd
have a heart attack!
Ok, dalicia, since you were on the patch
before...I have a question about it. What
day did you start it after your menstal
cycle? Sunday or monday?
Well I started mine on a sunday. And
continued to do the "sunday start" for the
1st 2 months. Well this 3rd month the
pharmacy closed earlier than expected so I
was left to do a "monday start".
According to the patches book, that is
fine as long as it's the 1st sunday or
monday after your period.
Do you think that would have something to
do with it maybe being defective this
month?
How am I going to explain this to the
family?? Hey, I have a 15 week old and
i'm pregnant again and I swear I was on
birth conrtol! I don't think that people
are going to believe what I say.
I think your fine, mainly because how long
did you have the patch off? The patch
remains in your body when you take it off,
for instance your supposed to remove it
for a week and etc. Well you could still
have sex that week if you wanted and you
shouldn't get pregnant because the hormone
stays in your system.
I would seriously recommend getting on
another type of birth control.
