And I had sex on the first day of my period. I didnt start a new pack or anything. Are my chances higher of being pregnant? I had a longer period this month too which is wierd. Anyway, I am having symptoms that I had with my first child but not all. Thanks for reading and I hope to get some replies! :wink:

Hi:) you were protected on your placebo week for the 7 days only, any sex you had after that would be risky for pregnancy.

Well, I took a test tonight (not morning urine but I was impatient) and I got a bfn. But what bothers me is I keep getting cramping pins like af is coming and it doesnt. Also, I am bloated, but only at night...Wierd. I wonder if the cramping is my body adjusting? I am so confused!

While off birth control, cramps can be quite painful. Your uterus has to contract to start the menstrual flow, hence the nasty cramps. Your body is adjusting to life without birth control and you may find your cycles to be longer naturally, while on the pill they were always set.
