I'm going to be 30 years old. I'm
healthy. My fiance and I use condoms.
The first weekend in march, we had sex
while I was menstruating. We did it
several times but everytime he did
pull-out. Then after I finished
menstruating we returned to using condoms.
Well, about 10 days ago, I thought I was
getting my period again. I went to the
restroom, wiped and found a little blood
so I put in a tampon that night. The
next day, when I went to go take it out,
the tampon had a good size, normal amount
of red blood on it. I took it out and we
had sex unprotected, but he did pull out.
Well I still haven't gotten my period. I
doubt i"m pregnant, as i'm not exhibiting
any of the signs. No morning sickness, no
increased urination, no changes in my
breasts, no weird cravings. I've only
noticed that i've been eating a lot of
sugar, which I tend to do before my
period, but I still haven't gotten it. I
dont' want to waste the money on a
pregnancy test when I could have just
waited little longer. I'm really bad
because I don't keep track of my periods,
but I do know they typically come the 1st
week of the month. It's only the 11th.
But now it's buggin me enough to post on
here and after work we're going to get a
test. My concerns are that ....
A few days ago, I had x-rays done and I
said no when they asked if I had any
chance of being pregnant. I've also taken
a few thermogenics. I also take 300mg
wellbutrin and 20 mg celexa daily.I also
drank a few wine coolers last weekend.
If I am pregnant do I need to be concerned
now?
Also is feeling full and feeling like your
belly is sticking out normal for a 1-2
weeks pregnant? I don't know if i'm just
being extra sensitive out of worry. And
no i'm not mistaking bloating for it.
My other concern is that I bled as much as
I did and it wasn't a period...That's
never happened to me before. I have
normal pap smears. I've never bled after
he and I have had sex before. I think I
bled more then spotting.
I'm not freakin out, just full of
questions....
Any thoughts, advice, etc....Is
appreciated.
Thanks!

What's completely skipping a period? I'm
not worried, I mean I talked to my fiance
and he's supportive no matter what happens
cuz "he loves me" :) so that's what
matters.

As for your concerns about the x-rays and
wine coolers and whatnot.... You can't
change the past, so don't worry yourself
over it. It's not like you intentionally
did anything wrong.

I don't know if you are in the states or
not but you can get accurate pregnancy
tests at the dollar store. The walmart
brand pregnancy test is only approximately
$5 and less, I believe. Unless you get a
two-pack.
Planned parenthood gives pregnancy tests
for free. So if it is a concern over cost
for testing you shouldn't worry.
There are many reasons you could bloat. A
lot of premenstrual symptoms are also the
symptoms of early pregnancy. It doesn't
sound like you are pregnant, though there
is always that possibility.
My advice is to always use birth control
if you don't want to be pregnant. My best
friend got pregnant on her period - it is
possible. If you don't like condoms you
could look into other barrier methods or
the pill.
