ok i have often posted smug, hey take prozac you don't need to be anxious ever again, type things and now my own bizarre irrational scarypannts fear is back. despite the prozac. but i have been forgetting to take them a lot recently....

Today i will mostly be frightened that i am pregnant EVEN THOUGH 1) i haven't had actual procreational-style sex for about 5 years and 2) i have a coil. But my boobs feel funny, and last time i said - don't touch me there my boobs feel funny i wonder why? - it turned out i was pregnant. and one of my biggest phobias is of being pregnant. even though both my kids were planned.

i'm so pissed off. i know i'm can't be pg. the nearest any sperm has been to my cervix in the last few months is my navel. but i can't be happy, i feel sick, and i can't stop thinking about it. and i have stuff to do....exciting things to talk to my dh about, but i can't i'm just obsessing.

i know it is wrong to seek reassurance for your irrational fears but humour me...

Do a pregnancy test in the morning. You can do nothing about it then. And when you have done the pregnancy test, you have facts and can make a proper decision.

  1. I think the coil often makes boobs feel funny. Did that to me when I had it.
  1. Unless I misunderstood the whole of the Joy of Sex, you can't get pregnant with sperm in your navel
  1. DON'T tell me what the sperm was doing there
  1. No more missing prozac pills!

Totally irrational, but you are not alone. IME only a test will set your mind at rest.

I often panic that I'm pregnant when I can't be - DH just asks whose it is {hmm]

I had a panic I was pregnant before I came on. I can't be. I haven't had sex for so long I think I would have given birth by now - but it doesn't stop me panicking.

thank you all. i couldn't possibly dream of doing a test as that would feel like it more than just in my own daft head....

but i have just smiled AND had a bit of a conversation. so you've helped already!
