To ask you to guess whether or not I’m pregnant

Back in February I stupidly had sex with a friend and then the next day had a big night out, came home and took the pill as usual but was sick straight away afterwards.
After that for about a month I felt really really sick after drinking, even just a few glasses of wine. I am however severely emetophobic so it may have been a fear of being sick again. But after about a month that totally stopped.
The only other symptoms I have are really really bad constipation which I’ve not experienced before and I’ve put on weight. The weight gain has been all over my body though and may well be just that I’ve been eating and drinking more than usual lately and my thyroid is all over the place. Oh and I’ve also been getting some brown discharge when I wee for a few weeks now.
My periods have been totally normal but I’m aware they’re not real periods on the pill.
It’s been about 14 weeks since the sex and the possibility of being pregnant has been in the back of my mind since so I’m going to take a test tomorrow morning but any guesses before that?

I think it's a 50/50 chance,

Unlikely if you only threw up after taking the pill after you had sex

Lifeover · 17/05/2019 15:31

Pressure you had unprotected sex so sounds more likely you’ve caught an Sti

AlaskanOilBaron · 17/05/2019 15:33

How are your boobs?

AlaskanOilBaron · 17/05/2019 15:35

I worked out that I was pregnant in about 5 seconds when I stepped into a lift in a department store and - whoosh- the smell of lift overwhelmed me. I hardly needed a test.

FizzyPink · 17/05/2019 15:37

Boobs are totally normal, not smelling anymore than I usually can. Hadn’t considered an STI, have just ordered a testing kit

Hm. I'd say 15% chance you're pregnant.

Is the reason you're worried because you threw up after taking the pill, like you think it's about the same as missing one?

FizzyPink · 17/05/2019 15:41

I’m most concerned because I’ve been putting on weight and also having a month of being unable to stomach alcohol whereas normally I can drink like a fish.
My friend is a scientist in female reproduction and she said it’s very unlikely to be pregnant if you miss a pill after having sex rather than the other way around. I guess I’ll just have to wait and see tomorrow

AlaskanOilBaron · 17/05/2019 15:50

I see. Weird that you're gaining weight while presumably cutting back on alcohol.

Do you want to be pregnant?

FizzyPink · 17/05/2019 15:56

No absolutely not hence why worrying about it now, I will 100% be having an abortion if I am

Sounds more like an STI to me, but see you've already thought about that. I hope I'm wrong.

Pigpogtastic · 17/05/2019 16:19

If you are potentially as far along as 14 weeks you could just take a test now.

FizzyPink · 17/05/2019 16:51

Would that work considering a drink a lot of water so my wee is potentially very dilute by now?

Sex 14 weeks ago would put you around 12 weeks (assuming you had sex around ovulation). The test will work now, doesn't need to be FMU.

kimlo · 17/05/2019 16:56

at 14 weeks it wouldn't matter how much water you had drank.

I don't think you are.

outvoid · 17/05/2019 16:56

Yeah, at 14 weeks you really wouldn’t need to wait for the first morning pee at all. I doubt you’re pregnant though fwiw.

Iamnotagoddess · 17/05/2019 16:57

Just take a test ffs?

gamerchick · 17/05/2019 16:58

If you think you're that far along, you don't need to wait until morning to take a test OP.

gamerchick · 17/05/2019 16:59

Or WTS ^ Grin

Good luck OP.

FizzyPink · 17/05/2019 17:00

Okay off to Tesco after work, will update when I’m home

Why would you post this rather than just take a test?!? I don’t get it.

FFSeverynameisused · 17/05/2019 17:05

I hate threads like this.

ALemonyPea · 17/05/2019 17:07

I'd you're not pregnant, please get tested for STI, not sure how a home test for those works, maybe go to your GP instead.

MissBPotter · 17/05/2019 17:14

You honestly hadn’t considered an STI either?!? Honestly I’m not trying to have a go at you but that’s strange. Maybe you need to consider being more assertive and insisting on condoms.

redspider1 · 17/05/2019 17:23

My nipples went very large the day after conception!!
