Actually not trying to conceive but..

-sore breasts
-slight crampiness
-inability to loost any weight no matter how much I exercise and diet
-swollen feet
-moodiness

I am on the pill and have been for 2 months, before that I we were using condoms. So we are being very responsible. But I am terrified to take the test. What if it's positive? Ack!!!

Re: Actually not trying to conceive but..

When was your last period? When are you due?

You might want to take a test, stress can do a lot to the body. Isn't it better to know everything then to speculate.

I'd take a test to be sure too, but wouldn't JUST starting the pill give you crazy symptoms? I have a friend who went through 2-3 different brands before the docs found one that worked for her. It could be your body adjusting to the pill. BUT I'm no doctor NOR have I ever been on the pill.

Ok...I just took a test and it was negative (thank god). I guess its just the pills. I am taking them 3 weeks at a time (not taking the placebos vcause I don't want a period) so I guess its my body getting used to that.

me too! i thought i was preggo. This is bc the pill causes the body to 'believe' it is pregnant....or something along those lines. I forget the chemistry of it exactly.
