This might seem dumb, but how/where can you get birth control pills? Also, is being bloated a sign of pregnancy? I'm really thin and it seems like my stomach has been expanding since I had sex a couple weeks ago (on the 12th) is this a sure sign of pregnancy or is this a symptom of paranoia?

You can see your doctor or gyno about birth control pills. They will talk with you and decide which method is best for you. If you are forgetful then maybe the patch instead of the pill. Being bloated is a sign of a period not pregnancy. You usually do not begin to show until about 2-4 months of being pregnant. Its not dumb questions, you just dont know and its not your fault. I believe there is a website itsuptome.Com or something and they can help you find a clinic or help you find a birth control method. Hope that helps.

Bloating is a menstrual symptom more than a pregnancy one. And if u have bad cramps all the time, or bloted all the time, no matter u got ur period or not, u might have a common illness, but forgot what it's called..

Yes like nikki said, ask ur gyno or just any family doctor, they will find one that suits you
