Q: Early Signs of Pregnancy?
asked by: mandaroonie on February 8th, 2005

Okay, i'm new to the boards. My name is amanda, and i'm in college right now. I've been on the pill (ortho-cyclin) for almost 5 months now. My boyfriend and I don't use condoms at all really. Sometime's just to make sex last longer, but then he takes it off after a while. I'm fine with that. I have never missed a pill, I take them perfectly. My period isn't due until next week and i'm having bad cramping, maybe pms related, I don't know... But when I went to the bathroom just a little while ago I noticed some light brown spotting maybe? What exactly does spotting look like? Is this a possible sign of early pregnancy? Please help! :o

That could be a sign of your body still getting use to the pill. Personally I would wait and see if you get a full out period or not yet. If it's a lite period and different from the others, that could mean inplantation bleeding, then I would get a test and test to see if you're pregnant. But don't stress over it, cause that can cause a missed period too!!

Princess385 is right don't stress over it. But to give a little advice. If you are worrying that you pregnant right now. And you are only useing one form of bc. Then maybe you should start useing two forms of bc. So that way you what have this worry again. Unless you want to have a baby. Yes I know condoms is comfortable. But if you are not wanting a baby ask yourself this . Do I want to be uncomfortable or do I want a baby.

Well, if you usually have your period every 4 weeks, then you are late for your period now. Take a pregnancy test, it will tell you if you are pregnant or not. The sooner you know, the sooner you can make your decision on what you'll do and get the best treatment.

Your boyfriend has to have some kind of idea that pregnancy is a possibility, he had UNPROTECTED sex with you. Unprotected sex = pregnancy.

There is a chance of pregnancy. You had sex without birth control. He should understand that as much as you. That is how babies are made. Sex. No birth control. If you don't want to get pregnant, you need to use condoms and birth control pills. Both of which you can get for free at planned parenthood. Accidental pregnancies aren't really true 'accidents' if you aren't doing anything to prevent them. Which you are not.

This isn't meant to sound harsh, although I know it does. But if you are pregnant, you and your boyfriend had to have known this was a possibility.

You aren't ready for a baby either at 16 - you shouldn't feel you need to protect your boyfriend.

The answer will be the same - take a pregnancy test. That is the only way to know if you are pregnant or not.

I am 16 and ive been on the pill for almost a year now. About 2 months ago I didnt take my brown iron pill until after my boyfriend and I had sex so that I was still on the white, I had that same thing going on and freaked out. I soon started my period. My body was adjusting and preparing itself for my period (what I was told by my doctor)

If you are late for your period then i would suggest taking a pregnancy test. It is the only way to tell if you are pregnant or not, there is no other way. go to the drugstore, they arent that expensive and test. then you can go from there. those could be signs of pregnancy or of stress from thinking you are pregnant.
