On Birth Control..but Thinking I Might Be Prego? Posted: 08-25-07 22:59pm
Ok so, here goes..
I'm currently on the birth control patch,
Ortho-Evra and have been since i had my
daughter. (she's 15 months)
My "patch change" day is Wednesday, and i
usually get my period on friday or
saturday morning...latest i've ever gotten
it was Sunday. Anyways.. last month i
never really got my period, i started
bleeding a little bit on the following
Monday night. I was having cramps and
figured it was coming and for whatever
reason was just a lil late. It wasn't
much, so i just wore a liner to bed. Woke
up the next morning and there was pretty
much nothing on it, i put in a tampon just
to be safe cause i was going out all day.
Went to change it later and nothing was
goin on down there.... it kept coming and
going all day tuesday & part of
wednesday but it wasn't like a full
period, wasn't heavy.. and was practically
only there when i wiped. Anyways so i put
another patch on on wednesday cause i
didn't know what was goin on.... and i
have one more patch left for this month.
Is it possible that i could be pregnant!?
If so, will my taking birth control affect
the baby!?... i did a test on the
wednesday i put on the patch but it was
negative. I haven't been stressing about
it, i'm just curious. anyways.. hope that
wasn't too confusing! lol sorry

Since no birth control is perfect, there
is a possibility of pregnancy.
Fortunately, birth control hormones will
not harm a fetus. I would say it does seem
to be time to test.

no form of birth control is 100% accurate.
i agreee, take a pregnancy test
