All the time I have been on birth control
I have never really been hungry and what
not im having a period and all and a very
long one at that. Here the past couple
weeks I have been hungry like all the time
and having cravings and all. My question
is could I get pregnant or could I be
pregnant and just assume im not because im
still having myh period and all. I dont
know whats. I got a little tummy(im
chubby) and when im like laying down and
run my hand over my lower stomach feels
like a little pouch or sumfin could I be
pregnant or could that mean that one of my
ovaries are swelled or somthing? And how
long does it normally take to get a pouch
(start showing if your pregnant?)

I am on the same birth control that you
are (depo) and I have been feeling and
wondering the same thing you have been
wondering. Does anyone know why we are
feeling this way? Is it just the hormones
or what?

I am not nor have I ever been on depo.
However, a lot of the time birth control
makes your body believe that it is
pregnant and does give you pregnancy
symptoms. Also, it is possible to get
pregnant on depo. My best friend
conceived both her children on depo.

If your having a long heavy period, your
most likely not pregnant. Light periods
or spotting can occur after fertilization.
If you think you might be, you have to go
see your doctor because a heavy period and
pregnancy can mean something is wrong.

I am on depo and have been more hungry
than normal.. I've heard that lots of
people gain weight on depo.. Maybe it's
just a side effect. I know i'm not
pregnant but I get the cravings and
"bloated" feeling like my stomach is
sticking out farther than it used to.
