Extremely anxious - need reassurance

Hello,

I’m just looking for some non judgemental reassurance.

I’ve been with my partner for over two years and we already have our own children from separate relationships. I had my last contraceptive injection around 20 months ago and started to relax a bit with trying to conceive as I know it takes a while for your body to get back to normal.

I am now pregnant, I got two very clear positive tests on Wednesday.

I have a big worry that is probably very irrational but I keep obsessing over it.

My partner and I broke up for around a month in February. During this time I met up with a guy that I’m friends with because as far as I was concerned at that point, me and my partner were completely over. This was on the 21st of feb. I slept with him but it didn’t last very long as he has issues with ejaculating due to being on very strong antidepressants and also I didn’t feel comfortable whilst not being protected. He didn’t ejaculate and we only had sex for about 3 minutes before giving up. I kindly told him about a week later that I’d rather just be friends. Since then me and my partner have got back together and I had my period on the 5th of march. My periods are between 28 - 35 day cycles usually but I took a test just before I came on as my last period before that was the 30th of Jan. It was negative. I have had a lot of sex with my partner since around the start of march and I think it’s very likely we conceived mid march sort of time.

I just keep thinking what if somehow the other guy has got me pregnant? My period was normal, not like implantation bleeding, and he didn’t cum plus he finds it very difficult so it would have taken him ages. I know there’s a very very small chance that he has got me pregnant, but I cannot get the thought out of my head. Logically what can I do? I’m just looking for honest opinions I guess. Surely a normal period 2 weeks after it happened and him not ejaculating would eliminate him making me pregnant?

Sorry for the long message, just very very worried

Hi @Xxxx123456 honestly don’t worry at all, you had your period as normal after so I think you’re in the clear!

Try to relax and enjoy your good news! Xx

Thank you! I know I’m probably being really silly, I just keep thinking what if it was implantation bleeding instead. But I’ve looked at all my dates and I wasn’t ovulating at the time I saw him either so the chances are so small! Xx

I would think you have no reason to worry OP. I know (especially in pregnancy!) we love to worry! I hope you have a lovely pregnancy 💖
