I don’t need this stress right now

im panicking - we had sex and the condom broke. I’m within the ovulation window, will go and get MAP tomorrow but that is a few hours from now. Also since I’m within the fertile window I know it’ll be useless. I’m panicking as I really don’t want another baby - not sure why I’m posting it here but want to get it off my chest as I’ll be on tenterhooks until my next period.

I’m on day -5 from my usual period day and did a test- the clear blue early response one. It came out as ‘not pregnant’ which has helped with the anxiety a little.

I struggle with menstrual migraine and periods are not fun- however I think this month I’ll be really happy to have my period.

Not sure what I’m trying to achieve by posting- possibly calming my anxiety but my period is a day late. We are away so not tested but will do tomorrow when I get home. I’ve never wanted my period to start this bad!!!!

Fingers crossed your period arrives before you need to do the test. How regular are they normally, i.e. is a day late common for you?

@LittleRedYoshi fingers crossed- not common usually its pretty spot on, however I have been stressed so not sure if that has an effect this month.

How are you?

@MadeForThis thank you for asking- means a lot. No period but have all the symptoms- went for a walk to calm myself. I’ll do another test tomorrow. It’s just that I’m 100% sure I don’t want a baby so it will be a termination- however it is not a easy process emotionally

The stress alone is enough to make you late.

my Period started today. 7 days late but finally I’m out of misery. Thank you for all the kind and understanding messages again.

Oh wow, that must have been a stressful week for you! Relieved it was eventually the result you'd been hoping for though.

Phew, what a relief for you.

@LittleRedYoshi @ISeeARedDoorAndIWantToBreakIn yes such a relief. Although I tried my best not to get stressed as that was contributing to the delay as well it was so difficult to put that little voice in my head to bed. I must have spent a fortune on pregnancy tests!!
