How Can U Tell If Ur Preggy While Taking the Mini Pill? Posted: 04-05-06 12:24pm
I started on the errin brand mini pill
last month after years of taking a combo
pill. Since starting the pill I still
have the bloating I was getting on the
combo pill :? And I have spotted a few
times also (old blood) but I was wondering
how to tell if you became pregnant while
on the mini pill since u dont get a period
when u take it continuously? I am just
wondering cause my husband and I have had
sex several times since starting the pill
and I am just always overthinging
everything I feel with my body.. The
bloating, frequent urination,
nausea,heartburn.... But I wouldnt even
know when to try and test cause I don't
have a period to "miss" or know when I
would get a period if I was supposed to.
I also was wondering what the chances of
getting pg on the mini pill cause last
night we had sex and I dropped and lost
todays pill in the bathroom (clumsy me)
and I know sperm can live up to 4 or 5
days, so if I miss todays pill, would that
increase my chances of getting pg.. I bet
this is probably confusing, but if you can
try to answer me that would be awesome.
Thanks, kelly.

Ok well im on the mini pill too... I am
majorly bloated...And I was over analysing
all the pregnancy signs..... All the
female hormones in your body me
tinkers.... Anyway.. I was wondering
bout the whole no periods thing... And I
just think.. U have got to take tests...
Theres no other way.... Or be extra
careful like using a condom.. And like me
and my boyfriend.. Washing ur hands after
foreplay... Im dreading no periods...
Coz thats my like relief signal... Lol...
Good luck xx

Ok I am glad I am not the only one (not
that I am happy anyone is feeling bloated
or anything) but it is nice to know I am
not alone. I just would hate to waste
money on tests everytime I need one. But
unless I had every possiable sign or
symptom at once I probably would try to
hold off on buying a test.. I wouldnt
mind if I became pregnant, it is in our
near future anyway, so I wouldnt go out of
my way for extra protection. But I dont
like the fact that I cant use a missing
or light period as an indicator of being
preggy or not. Cause right now I am
questioning if I am but I am just going to
try to wait it out for more symptoms befor
I make any Dr. Appointments. Or buy any
tests..... Well I hope our bloating
goes away soon, thanks for answering....
Anyone else with any input on this
situation??? Kelly
