My breasts have being hurting alot for 4 days now and I feel so uncomfortable. There is no way I want anymore children. I already have 3 beautiful children dd 14, dd 9 and ds 2. About 6 months ago my dh had a vasectomy and also went back for both checks having the first one not clear of sperm and the second one clear. Also in February last year I had an endometrial ablation because of suffering for years with very painful and heavy periods. Since then I haven't seen a period. Now I'm starting to worry about my sore breasts and cant understand whats going on.....can anyone maybe pleassssssseeeee give me some advice??? Am I losing my mind??? I'm not brewdy at all so howcome do I now think I might be pregnant when it can really be true or can it???? I'm sooooo worried.

How old are you? Maybe the start of the change?

gr8kids · 11/01/2010 14:23

I'm 34. Do you think so?

could it be the return of your periods? They can return btw also you still have your ovaries so it could be purely a change in your hormone levels.

I often have breast pain before I'm due on - sometimes a whole week other times just a day or so.

Yeah maybe that. Actually right now if I could see a period I'd be ever so happy. After all the years of wishing them away to now wish I had one just to prove I'm not pregnant.

I'm considering being sterilised (dh won't) and having endometrial ablation at the same time.

I really hope you're not pregnant otherwise I'm not sure it's worth me going through it all.

I think do the test or going to make yourself ill with the stress of worrying about it.

It feels like I'm in a bad dream and cant wake up. I just cant be. I know I should just do a test and see. But seriously it just cant be possible now.

it's very very very very very very unlikely isn't it, both for his snip to fail after the all clear and for you to conceive after ablation. It's probably just hormonal changes, you haven't just stopped breast feeding recently or something? I think sometimes we just have blips like I only get period pains every now and then not every month.

gr8kids · 11/01/2010 18:14

phew....how good it is to have read that you think it very very very unlikely. makes me feel a bit better. no stopped feeding in dec 2008. i suppose also coz i don't get a period now my body will have a hormone merry go round at some point. i'm just going to wait a few more days and if it gets any worse then maybe get it checked out. at the mo they feel hot as well so who knows. thank you all for your advice.

You've not been sterlised though just had ablation so all the hormones are still there surely????

I will be if you are pregnant, honestly it's a tiny percentage of chance I should think.

gr8kids · 11/01/2010 18:24

no haven't been sterilised only ablation. well i tell you if i am then its got to be a wonder baby and surely meant to be. but just dont want to even consider it at all. silly going on about it but when something, no matter how small or big gets you down its not so easy to just forget it. i suppose no-one is protected by that small chance of things not working. would just be my luck to be that person

I finally got my head around sterilsation and then discovered the failure rate is really high for women!!!! Dh refuses to have the snip, I want ablation but because of the dangers of being pregnant post ablationn then I feel pretty stuffed and still terrified of becoming pregnant post ablation.

Don't want anymore dc but terrified to do anything permanent about it......

I reckon if it happened to anyone it would be!
