Hello everybody! I'm 24, my partner is 25. I was a bit careless at taking the pill 3 weeks ago so me and partner were a bit silly caught in the moment!
I have irregular periods anyway so i'm hoping this is just another irregularity. But my period usually starts around 25th-28th of every month. However, i did have 2 periods last month. I had one from the 24th-29th June and then another 2nd-8th July. (So i'm praying my period has just messed up and it'll come soon since they have a history of being irregular).
So i dont know when to class it as a missed period. Do i class it as my usual monthly period or a month from when my last period was (the 2 in 1 month one?)

Also, (this could just be paranoia) but i feel my boobs are looking rounder; stitch like cramps on my left side (i dont usually get period pains); white, thick,creamy discharge (almost pasty)which has no smell (i dont usually get much discharge and none really around my period, if i do get it, it's usually clear). I'm guessing it's too early to have the typical symptoms but any suggestions? Hopefully period will start this week!

Hi, can you take a pregnancy test? Was your second bleed like a normal period or was it lighter and more pink/brown tinged?

I thought it might be too soon to take a pregnancy test, I was going to wait until Sunday and if it hasnt come, take one!
The period was quite heavy both times, so i'm pretty sure it wasnt implantation bleeding :/
But i'm not being crude but the week after, I was constantly on the go and i've never done it before but I kept forgetting to take my pill and i forgot to take it about 3 days during that week. I told my partner and we said we wouldnt do anything for a week or so but human nature took okay twice that week (I know, we were so silly) and now i'm panicking Blush

If you were last careless three weeks ago, a test should show if you're pregnant or not.

As PP said, it should show on an early detection test such as first response or clear blue early detection alreadySmile

Thanks everyone!! I might wait until sunday because that's what ive agreed with my partner,
Does anybody know if the white, creamy, past discharge is a symptom?

It's ambiguous - it can go either way.

All pregnancy symptoms before 6 weeks are exactly the same as potential pms symptoms.

There is no definitive way to find out except by taking a home pregnancy test (or a blood test at the gp). All symptoms are ambiguous.
