I might be pregnant ?
Posted: 05-06-08 15:11pm

I do take birth control but ive only been taking it since March, and i hate to admit it but i suck at remembering to take it at the same time each day or i might miss one to two days sometimes. My boyfrined doesnt use condoms and hes let go inside me 5 times in the last month. Ive been feeling kinda sick to my stomach, very lazy and tired lately, and having some stomach pains, and constipation. When do i get a pregnancy test or should i go to my doctors? help im really scared and confused

Wait until your period is due before taking a pregnancy test. Use condoms when you forget your pills. Maybe talk to your doctor about the shot or something else that would be more suitable to your lifestyle.

You could put your pills with your toothbrush - so every morning when you brush your teeth you'll think, "AHA! I need to take my pill." Or put them on your alarm clock - something you do at the same/similar time each day to jog your memory. It will get easier. Use back up protection when you forget though.

You can take the sugar pills but if you don't have a period in that time take a test. Good luck

Continue taking your birth control pills - unless you get a positive test.

It could be the pill that is makinf you feel preg. I was on a pill which made me feel like that so i went to the doctor and switched to another.

not all pills are the same. wait until your 4th sugar pill and go get a test if u are - then go to the doctor and try another pill. i am on yaz aka yazmin lol
