Q: I Have a Question

Hey girls I know I haven't been on in a long time, but with school and the baby it's just been hard to keep up. Well my question is how did you guys feel in the beginning of your pregnancy. I've been really depressed the past few days. I haven't gotten my period since october and i've been on the pill and used condoms since I had the baby. I haven't tested because i'm in denial, or just too scared o know the results. Besides my urine test always come out negative, and before I do blood I want to wait it out a little longer. I don't know if some of you remember but I have an irregular cycle, so i'm hoping that it's just late. But for two days i've been feeling a little nuacious, and now today i've been feeling mild tenderness in my abdomen. It doesn't feel like cramps, and I don't know how else to explain it. Anyway what chances do you think I have of coming out pregnant again , when i've been so careful condoms and the pill. I love kids, but i'm really worry. Jeremiah is only 4 months old and I don't think that sheldon would be very happy. I'm not sure if I would be happy, I really want to finish school, and I don't believe in abortion. What do I do wait it out a little longer or what. I don't want to do the blood test yet because I don't have the money for it right now, with christmas and all. I really don't know what to think or do.

Depression and nausea etc are symptoms of both pregnancy and periods - they're caused by hormones going wibbly. Negative preggo tests are a good sign that you're not preggo, plus you've been careful with b/c. Try visitng your local family planning to see if they'll do a blood test for free or at least cheaply. Oh and try not to worry - that's just going to make your period later.

All the best hun.

Honestly, I think the sooner you test the better, birth control pills are not good for the baby, and studies show that it reduces the sperm count if it's a boy!!! You seriously need to test asap! I know you don't want another child, but a healthy one is better than one with medical complications, I don't know all the way b.C. Affects the baby, but I wouldn't want to take the cahnces!
