Ok, my last question ever, I hope. Is it usual to not have tender breasts a week before your period while on birth control? I have 2 days worth of active pills left and then the week of inactive. So, is this strange or does it just happen with some women?

It isn't strange. It is also a pms symptom, as well as a 'pregnancy' symptom.

If you have been taking your pills as prescribed, you have nothing to worry about and it is probably just a side effect of your birth control.

Ok, well, reading that and then looking at the fact that the last time I had sex was over a week ago and i've had no pregnancy symptoms, I can assume i'll be fine?

If you are taking your pill as prescribed, you are fine. That is what the pill is for - preventing pregnancy ;)

Greetings .Kaitlynn we are .Oregonian's also and we might be moving to .Washington state soon. My irish wolfhounds name is also .Kaitlynn.
Birth control is not always 100% safe but it definitey helps. B/c pills along with just about any other prescription and some non-prescription meds has a lot of side effects unfortunately!
I wish you the best!

Ok, thanks guys. I'm just a little nervous since this is the first time i've had sex while actually on the pill. So its kinda like...Im hoping it'll prove itself and next time I wont really worry at all.

Sandy: I love irish wolfhounds, a friend of my mom's use to own like 3 of them. She'd always bring them into work with her (one of them anyway) and she worked at a state office building! But they're lovely dogs, i'd like to own one some day. Just wished they lived longer. I heard they only live about 5 years or so.
