Okay, wow.

So i've been on ortho-evra for about two months now, and i'm pretty scared right now .. As far as my chances of being prego.

For the past week and a half i've had some sympoms that concern me. These include extreme sleepiness, nausea, more discharge than normal, and breast tenderness ... Also, the area around my nipple is getting a bit darker.
Now, with the tenderness, I had that when I first started the patch, but it faded away, and I haven't had it since then, until now. I don't know if these symptoms are just because i'm on birtch control, or if it's something more serious.

My boyfriend and I waited the full month before we had sex without a condom. Since then, we stopped using one and he goes inside me regularily. I tried to be responsible by getting on birth control before I had sex. And now, if I am pregnant, i'm screwed. I'm far too young to have a child, and I wouldn't know what my boyfriend and I would do if I was.

I don't know exactly why i'm writing this, as I know there isn't anything that you guys can tell me, besides to go get a hpt. The problem with that is i'm not due until this coming wednesday (six days from now), so i'll have to wait atleast a couple more days.

I'm just so scared, and needed to get this out.

Thanks.
