To actually consider I could be pregnant 8 weeks after having baby?

[b0bb1n]

Baby born April 2nd. 22nd May got what seemed to be first period, but it didn't last as long as normal (I read it's normal for them to change pp though).

About a week (give or take) beforehand, dtd twice and he pulled out, and once dtd no pulling out. The day after the suspected period had finished (26th May) also dtd no pulling out (sorry for details).

Tuesday night I felt sick when I woke up, like I was going to be sick (I sleep evenings so night is my morning). This morning (now) I feel nausea again.

I am probably just overly paranoid because with my first pregnancy nausea was the first symptom and it started pretty much immediately after conception. Also I noticed a 'difference' in the smell of dh's tobacco (which was just increased sense of smell) and lately I can smell his tobacco when it's in the pouch a couple of feet away.

If it wasn't for the suspected period I would feel a lot more sure I was pregnant. I feel too sick to proof read this I hope it makes sense!

I don't think people are taking issue at the fact that op may be pregnant so soon after giving birth. I think it's more the fact that pulling out clearly meant they didn't want another child, and deciding to have a child is usually something to be discussed beforehand. It is irresponsible to be having unprotected sex without actually knowing If you want a baby!

RTFT @Kittykat93, op has already said they do want another child!

What kind of man are you married to Napssavelives? If blood is difficult or gross? What is wrong with you?

Um, I don't think that finding blood off-putting during ssex is unusual ™myfoolishboatisleaning™
She's talking about lochia. I bled heavily for three weeks and noticably for another 3 post birth.

It’s blood, what’s gross about blood?

During sex, I find it gross. And messy.

It’s blood, what a highly strung person you must be. Wow.

Maybe because it is irrelevant and none of your business?

OP comes along stating she had repeated unprotected sex and acts all surprised she might be pregnant and you think the fact she is ignoring people mentioning contraception is irrelevant. OK then.

Oh, I forgot, on mumsnet you can't express normal boundaries.
Some people have sex on their period, or directly after giving birth, while still bleeding. Most people don't. They find it unpleasant and/or uncomfortable. Not to mention more likely to cause injury due to insufficient lubrication.
That other people do it, is none of my business whatsoever, their choice, but I and clearly a PP are surprised by it.
That you think I'm highly strung, or unusual says more about you, than me.

@Myfoolishboatisleaning

Don’t think there is anything wrong with me.
I bled heavily and couldbt think of anything worse

But you are judging others on this thread. It is not gross, maybe you don’t like it. But how is blood gross? (And I would say that most people do have sex on their period, it is totally normal)

Nope nothing wrong with you naps, well except having boundaries and not being sex ready at all times, obvs.

@Napssavelives that's fine but you started judging PPs for having sex, saying it was gross. She may not of bled like you or it may not be an issue for her and her DH.

Certainly I remember having sex around four or five weeks after both my births. So by eight weeks three occasions would not have been extreme.

Nope nothing wrong with you naps, well except having boundaries and not being sex ready at all times, obv

FFS some of us live in happy relationships!

I've not got boundary issues and if I want sex with my husband I will.

Get over your hang ups and stop this "only men wan't sex" shit. Women do and 10000s enjoy it!some of us know our own minds and decide what we want.

Wow, way to read your own version of what has been said. 🤔

@Putyourdamnshoeson don't think so! Your uptight about women liking sex or "always being sex ready"

Get over it? Accept that others are t.

PG or not?

I read it like that too. I think it was you referring to blood as gross. It does say a lot about your hang ups about normal bodily functions.

@Myfoolishboatisleaning that's because that's exactly what she was getting at.

I personally think there is a difference between period blood and Lochia and I wouldn’t be comfortable to have sex. Pretty sure I’m allowed to not be comfortable!

Yes, but should you be questioning other people’s choices and suggesting it’s gross? It does makes you sound a bit uptight.

Uptight?! Classic Mumsnet 😂😂😂

@Napssavelives that's fine for you as I said previously but others feel differently and saying it's gross and not expecting people to say no it's not and it's your being uptight the issue is ridiculous.

Don't express such strong views and expect people to just bow down to you!

I never expected anyone to bow down to me, I’m not the one making a fuss.

Good luck at the doctors
