It's Me Again With More Freak-outs Concering Ortho-lo Posted: 10-25-05 22:31pm
Okay, so, when my cycle started, I took
the first 2 pills fine. My cycle starts
on monday. Then wednesday I accidentally
didn't take the pill till 5 pm (i normally
take them between 10-12 am) on accident,
then thursday I took it fine, then friday
again I was late, took it at around 5 pm
again. I had sex, unprotected, friday
night. Then, later in this month, I was
late on taking the pill and it didn't get
taken until 2 pm. This was this last
saturday. I didn't have sex until sunday
night.
All other times I have taken the pill when
I should, between 10-12 am. I am on the
last week of active pills before the
placebos. I started this last week of
active pills on monday.
However, I felt what I normally classify
as "pre-cramps" '(monday. Pre-cramps
kinda feel like cramps, but there isn't
any real pain, it's just a tightness in my
lower abdomen. They often happen a day or
two before my actual period. However, it
might just be that it's gotten colder in
the past few days, and when I shiver and
curl up in chairs I can sometimes cause
myself pain that is similar to
pre-cramps... I'm still worried...
What do you all think? I'm obviously
wondering if there's a high chance i'm
pregnant. As I type this, i'd reply to my
own query with "no, but go get checked if
you're worried!" if I weren't already the
one asking!!

Theres always a chance that you are
pregnant if you don't take your pills
right, but I do the same thing and I
haven't got pregnant like that. If you
are having a hard time taking your pills
at the normal time maybe you should start
taking them either when you brush your
teeth in the morning or at some other
scheduled time. I find that if I take
them at bed I take them within 2 hours of
each other everynight. However I am a mom
and I have a family so my life and
schedule are pretty set. If you go out a
lot you may find that taking them in
morning is best for you. Once I started
taking my pills so irregular that I even
had 2 to 3 periods a month. Or I may
feel like I am about to start but never
do. When your body is with out the normal
routine sometimes you can fool yourself
into thinking your period is about to
start. That could of happened with you.
However, if you get anymore symptoms take
a pregnancy test.
