AIBU to consider taking morning after pill

[StoopidOldMe]

Long story cut short - I am posting here for your wisdom

At the end of a very protracted divorce and last night had unprotected sex with STBXH - I know I know I know - please don't slate me - some gentle words of wisdom needed


5 days b4 my period is due - and (tmi) he didn't cum inside me (sorry) but did so quite a while after exit if you see what I mean.

God I'm stupid - what was I thinking.

Even before the actual event the odd sperm can make it's merry little way. Take it to be on the safe side!

[MammaTJ]

Oh and period is irrelevant too. I fell preg the day mine ended and got told there was now way that could have happened. I had been having a break from TTC, finished period, had sex, worked a few night shifts, then found I was preg.

[ErikNorseman]

Yes of course you should.

[whois]

Yeah you def need to take it to be sure, get yourself down to a chemist.

[ripsishere]

Yes.

[ripsishere]

, yes you should take the MAP, not yes YABU.

[simperingsally]

Yanbu. Go take it.

[OneOfMyTurnsComingOn]

Take it.

[mellen]

There isnt really a downside to taking it is there, not compared to the alternative.

[CecilyP]

It would be a very good idea to take it.

[samandi]

Unless you're strongly religious, I can't see why you wouldn't. "Considering taking the morning after pill" is hardly unreasonable to most sane people.

[DialsMavis]

Yes take it, DD is a result of DP pulling out

[Trills]

Why would it be unreasonable?

[MeconiumHappens]

yes, and hurry up- the sooner the more effective.

[picnicbasketcase]

Take it, and make sure the both of you don't have any more mindless moments around each other.

[TheBigJessie]

Get thyself to the chemist now.

[CecilyP]

Yes, and buy some condoms while you are there!

[JugglingWithTangentialOranges]

Thinking you might be OK without it as 5 days before period ? Depends a bit on how you feel about any side effects from taking it - I think it can make you feel a little sick ?? I can see everyone else has said to go ahead and have it, and I'm sure that would be a sensible precaution. Best wishes to you

[Wearsuncream]

Take it and still keep your fingers crossed -

[Mrsjay]

take it today even if he wasnt inside they are strong swimmers and dont have sex with him again

[FluffyJawsOfDoom]

You may think you're 5 days pre-period but you could have unexpectedly ovulated late iyswim - take it to be on the safe side!

[theboutiquemummy]

Take it hes an ex for a reason
