I’m so confused! 🤨
So this is most likely going to be long, so please bear with me.
I have a son, currently 11 months. I decided to take the mini pill when my 6 week appointment rolled along because I didn’t want to have another one so soon.
Fast forwards to this month.
So I was taking my pills like I always have. Thinking about it, I’ve been taking them incorrectly (at different times at night. Between 10-1am).
I also haven’t been checking my fertile window. I didn’t think I needed to because I was on the pill. Well... me and my Fiancé done the dirty deed at least 3 times that week and I know once when I was at the highest. Around the end of the week, I got a cold. I was taking medication that interferes with the birth control so I stopped taking it for about 5 days. I wasn’t thinking apparently. But I thought I feel like total crap. There’s no way I would want to do anything.
Last Saturday, I’m fairly certain I had implantation bleeding. I’ve been pregnant before, so I know the little tell-tale signs. I’ve taken 2 tests and they’ve both been negative. I’ve been nauseated, extremely tired, my mood changes in a snap, constantly wound up, and I can hardly hold my son because my breasts are to tender! And the mild cramps I’ve been experiencing send more speculation that I’m pregnant. I’ve been bloated (wearing two to three sizes up from what I normally wear), and basically living in the bathroom because I CANT STOPP PEEING! (My bladder is larger than normal so I don’t have to go but maybe 3 times during the day and I still drink 8-10 bottles of water a day). And lord, let’s just say this indigestion is making me want to breathe fire! I swear I feel pregnant, more that I did with my son. But at the same time, I feel like I’m humoring myself.
Sooo...... I suppose my question would be, should I be thinking I’m pregnant, or try to forget about it and see if AF shows in 3 days? AHHHH I DONT KNOW WHAT TO THINK!
By the way, after I started feeling better, I stopped taking my medication. If I start and stop mid cycle I’m a completely different person. I would’ve just started back up after my period and held off on sex until after the 3 days when I started back up.
Sorry for the long post. I just need some reassurance.
Achieve your health goals from period to parenting.
