Well Your horomones never got the proper amount of time to adjust to the horomones, so it's no wonder your bleeding is all messed up. Give yourself two months to readjust now. I think you should have given the pill more of a chance to adjust your body.

A hard stomach does not always mean pregnancy. And normally it is a few weeks into pregnancy before your uterus has grown enough to be felt past the pubic cavity. You could be constipated. That would cause your stomache to be hard. Have you taken a pregnancy test yet? If not you need to.

That is because you started and stopped the pill!

Even if you are bleeding, you are supposed to keep using the pill.

almost all women will have strange bleeding during their first month on bc pills, and you were supposed to try and weather it out.

Are you trying to get pregnant? it sounds like you need to either decide to concieve, or to prevent it. If you decide to prevent it then you need to dedicate yourself to the pills or whatever form you're on, and stick with it.

If you decide to concieve, then don't get on the pills again, and let your body relax for a few months.

Did they say why they thought you were pregnant and lost it. Because, I've never heard of this before. Unless, they were told that you got a positive. Especially because you started and stopped your bc, they would have told you exactly what we have been saying. The b/c is messing with your hormones and it can take a while for it to get sorted out.

And birth control will not make you lose a pregnancy.

This doesn't really make sense. Birth control doesn't make you lose a pregnancy unless it's an iud, and birth control can't really be bad for your body because it's the same hormones that are already in your body....

But if this is your second miscarriage in four months, then I would bet that your body is just all mixed up and that is what caused the weird bleeding and stuff. Most people feel weird for the first month or so that they are on birth control, you have to just stick with it because it usually goes away, and your body takes a little time to get used to it, so bleeding is common as well. If you were only on the pills for a few days then they weren't working, and you could've gotten pregnant. You need to be on them for a week straight before they are effective, and stay on them religiously or they are less effective.
