I'm sure I'm not but.....

DS2 now 8 months and had gone back on pill but a couple of months missed a few days so decided as sex definitely wasn't on the agenda to forget about that month but then go back on the pill when my next period came.

So waited until period came and started taking the pill on first day of period. Miracle of miracle had sex, I thought seven days after restarting pill ( which is ok I seem to remember ) but to be honest should have read the instructions again and not even sure that it wasn't five or six days after going back on pill. First sex that I had wanted to have for about 4 months so obviously DP very keen.

Period due in a couple of days but for about a week or so I have had a discharge with small amounts of blood in it. This is not normal for me.
Moody, could easily be PMT. Also yesterday and today found it hard to stomach my lunch, always a sign of pregnancy with me.

Sure I am not and period will soon come. But what if I was and had been happily taking the pill for the last three weeks. Would that affect the foetus?

The thought of another one so soon after DS2 is aan interesting thought !!

Just wanted to tell someone really as I am going mad. Maybe it is my body psychologically telling me something....

Hmmm, have you thought of doing a test? The Boots ones are supposed to be good for detecting early HCG(?) levels.

You don't sound like you think it would be too much of a disaster...?

Did a Clearblue one yesterday - it was negative, but maybe I'll try a Boots one or I can save 7.99 and wait two days

This is ridiculous I can count on one hand the amount of times I have had sex in the last 8 months.

No it wouldn't be a total disaster but it would be tough - three under the age of 5, newborn, 17 months and 3 and a half. Hey I could almost fit another one in and make it 4 under the age of 5

Crikey kaz33, how do you find time to post on Mumsnet??? Wait and save youself eight quid. I had the same symptoms a couple of months ago, and barring an immaculate conception could not possible have been pregnant.

I'm at work so loads of time to post on mumsnet
Also loads of time to think up scenarios, logically I'm sure I'm not - because as you say it would a little against the odds.

PS; Just two at the moment - 8 months and 2 and a half and a great nanny. But just starting to emerge from the last 8 months which has battered DP and I, but thats another story.

Wow fame and fortune, that would be whinging about how I couldn't do it. Gosh, it was rather painful as I recall.... that seems like a million aeons ago.

Coddy, your one must be about a year now ? Can't remember sex.

If you take the pill on the first day of your period then you should be as protected as you can be. I strongly suspect you aren't pregnant. But even if you are, lots and lots and lots of studies of the pill show it doesn't have harmful effects on a foetus.

Good luck. Good luck!

Thanks for the reassurance.

Gosh it has made me realise that I rather fancy another one, not yet though. What about you motherinferior ? Fancy a rematch ?

Its terrible I'm sitting here and its all I can think of.

Sure I'm not but very odd bleeds - about 10 days ago or so it started. Had fresh blood and old brown blood with slight clotting. Been reading all the stuff on implmantation bleeding on Mumsnet.

It would force us to move.

I have done three tests. First ( Boots own) negative and then when looked at it later in the day was feintly positive. But I know that doesn't mean anything. The other two ( Clearblue and boots own ) - both negative.

I told DP and he laughed and said I knew this would happen, give it a few months and you would want another one.

Well today is the last day of the pill so I should know soon enough. Think I should do some work....

Kaz33 - I'm sure you are not pg... and I don't want to scare you...... but......

I did a boots own test 5 days before my AF was due. It was negative, but faintly positive when I fished it out of the bin an hour later!

Gosh, I'm not even scared though I should be - DS2 is only 8 months. I'll probably be disappointed when it starts. What does AF mean ??

Kaz33 - If you are then there would be about 15/16 months between them? That's about the same as my big sis and me. Sounds like hard work, but when you've got 3 already, you won't even notice a 4th!

I prevented myself from doing another test this morning - told myself not to be so silly. But i now have this desire to rush out to Boots and try again.

Thankgod for Mumsnet - if I told any of my friends this, they would tell me off for being so silly. But here I can witter on to my hearts content. Well do tell me to shut up.

Its strange and totally suprising considering my past but I love babies and being a mum. There is something about the smell and the innocence and all that potential that makes me so incredibly soppy.
