Apologies if this is the wrong section...
Just sort of had to get my thoughts out in the air...going to the doctors today, for other reasons..have been off sick from work yesterday and today as well with a cold/flu type thing and want to nip it in the bud before it turns into a nasty chest/sinus infection like my poor DF!
But I think there is also the possibility I may be UTD.. AF was due, to my memory, on Monday (the one just gone), all week and nothing, but I may be out by a week, as I forgot to write down when my last one started Also, when I had the last one I had just stopped using the pill, so then again my cycle just may be all over the place. Haven't done a HPT yet, I hate buying pads/tampons so am to buy a HPT even though I know the checkout chick couldn't really care less! But it might be too early to test yet anyway... have been feeling a little nauseous lately and the last 2 mornings have felt a bit dizzy, breasts a little tender to the touch, but that could also be due to impending AF..
Don't know if I should be excited about the possibility or not, as I dont want to be disappointed if I'm not, and I know DF would be as he's wanted little kiddies for a while now. Just a few months ago I was like, nope not until at least next year, but we've talked a lot and I said I'd use up the couple of months I had left on the script I had for the pill and we'd just let nature take it's course. Didn't think it would have happened quite so quickly though (if it even has happened). So yeah that's about it...lol. not really much to the post... but do you think I should mention it to the doctor today that there is a possibility of it? In case I have to go on antibiotics or she gives me other drugs to take?
hey there,
it can be all so confusing cant it!! i hate that af signs are the same as preg signs drives me batty!! re just coming off the pill i do know someone else who fell preg first cycle off the pill so it is in theory possible but also possible that its just ur cycle changing due to not having the pill..
a home test whould be accurate now if u are a week late.. some say you can test as early as the day of your missed period or even before than (tho many women find they dont get a result at that time it depends alot on your body and how much hcg is in ur urine)
id mention it to the dr as a blood test is the only really conclusive way you can find out for sure and as u said it might affetc what medication he gives you..
your signs all sound possitive so my fingers are crossed for you
FYI most doctors will make you do a wee test if there is a possibility of pregnancy as they want an answer straight away if they are going to prescribe you something. They will charge between $10-$15 for the test usually (even if it is a bulk billing clinic). It's best to test yourself with a supermarket brand first as it's cheaper and less awkward. I personally hate having to do a wee test at the docs for any reason. Where I go the loo is in the waiting room and you have to walk past everyone with your jar, then back again.
For buying HPTs (or tampons, pads or condoms for that matter) without embarassment check out any newly refurbished Safeway store. They have the self check outs and no one has to know what you are buying. It's great.
I agree with the when buying HPTs - what makes it worse is my sister works at the local supermarket so I have to go out of my local area as I don't want any of her colleagues to mention it to her!!
Think I may be....
