hi i would like if someone could help me out if i was to be pregnant and i stop taking birthcontrol beacuse im suspicious of a viable pregnancy could i still bleed because of the stopping of the pills? because when u miss pills and stop taking the pills you experience breakthrough bleeding could i still experience this?even if i was to be pregnant?

I havent missed my period, its due tomorrow but i was abit curious as to if i am pregnant, i have been having these weird symptoms, such as sore breasts i usually get them up until a week before, but as im due to get my period tomorrow, and my boobs are still sore - very unusual.. 3 days ago, i thought i got my period but it only lasted for 1 hr..(of course, very odd) It started as a pink color when i wiped, and then when i returned to the toilet i was bleeding lightly for only for 1 hr, if that.. ive been feeling very full, and fat as i like to put it, cause my stomach just feels like its gonna pop, and i also have been urinating a fair more then usual, ive done pregnancy tests, all have come back negative but i think thats because i havent waited for my period to miss.. how early can an ultrasound pick up a pregnancy?


L34nn3 - March 14th, 2009 7:51 AM

Hi Kayabooz, i totally understand what you going thro. sadly Af showed her ugly face once agn for me! i really want a baby 5years now!!! I was totally convinced this time around, i had all signs, sore bbs, lower back pain, bloating, mild stomach cramps feeling sick, feeling tired goin toilet, all 2 weeks before AF....
i hav one child of 8 yrs old but didn't have many symp with him other than going toilet and a metal taste in my mouth!!! I guess when you want to be preg you will find the symptoms..but in your cases u could poss be as for the light bleed, it may be implantation bleed as i read for the 2 weeks of my symptoms this can happen!its diffent from af, light, and diff colour.. Im not 100% on ultrasound, but if you do not want to w8 for AF to show tomoz, go to your local chemist and buy a very sensitive Pregnancy test one of the ones that can detect the preg hormone days b4 AF is due. im 25 nx month when i was trying for my son 8-9 yrs ago i had 3 neg preg test i didnt find out until i was 6 weeks preg 4 days b4 my positive test.. i would have been almost 6 weeks gone and it didnt show at all, everyone is different. Have you been TTC? Hope this may help a little Lea

Hi Lilly jus wondered if AF showed on the 9th?


kayabooz - March 15th, 2009 8:09 PM

Hey Leanne,
I got my period - thank the lord :) But im still feeling as icky if not worse.. i actually feel sick now, and headaches.. its weird, my body is retarded.. Maybe im the unlucky girl, who goes and sits on the toilet, and has a baby cause my body does produce enough of the pregnancy hormone, that would be interesting.. ive heard of cases that the lady got her period.. all preg tests were negative, got a blood test negative, then had an Ultra sound, and found out she was 11 weeks pregnant..! Insane.. I currently broke up with the ex.. so this pregnany would have been an interesting one.. :p i wish there was an easier way to find out.. :\ i hate all this complicated body yada yada.. would be easier if u could stand infront of like a scanner, and it tell u ROFL.. technology needs to hurry up :p

this is my first time posting on this forum, im not a negative person but after reading some of these posts i feel that i need to comment.

Ok ladies please dont take this the wrong way but ..........
most of you are asking the same question "how do i know if i am pregnant?" the simple answer is to take a pregnancy test!

those who are trying and wanting to know what their ovulation date is there are a few sites on the internet which can tell you your most fertile days by using a ovulation calculatior, hope that helps.

the comment about pills and missing one, if you miss a pill take it as soon as you remember and continue as normal, but DO NOT have unprotected sex for 7 days, if you do use other methods of contraception. this should be clearly stated in the leaflet you get with your pills, pluss the doctor should explain this to you when you get you pills.

i hope i dont sound nasty and if i do i apologise but most of it is just common sense or looking into things :) the internet has a wide range of things to search for and most are helpfull

The best pregnancy test is the First Response Early result test - I used it 3 days before the day my period was due and it was positive. If the result is negative and you still think you might be pregnant, test again 2 days later and the pregnancy hormone doubles every two days.
