Pregnancy/implant removal

So I came off the implant in September had no sign of a period until the 3rd December until the 5th then I missed my period which was late by one week and now it's arrived one week late. It started yesterday I've been feeling sick before it started and feeling faint and constantly tired. I'm not sure if I could be pregnant or not I would take a test but can't afford it right now and don't have anyone to help. I don't have a local service that offers free pregnancy testing and my doctors won't help until I've taken a test. My question is does anyone think I could be pregnant or have you been in a similar situation? Or am I just over thinking and it's my body getting back to normal? Also just to add I've not been using protection since as I'm ttc.

You could be pregnant, yes. It took me 5 cycles to ovulate after the implant came out. It takes some people a year. It sounds like your cycles are erratic, which makes me think you're probably not ovulating/pregnant yet. But as there's a risk, i think you should test if you can.

Is there a friend who could help you out? You can get very cheap tests on the internet now.

If not, try to take care of yourself and see how your body feels. My first symptom was painful boobs and light cramping. I didn't fee true nausea until I was nearly 7 weeks.

No I don't have any friends which doesn't help because I have no one to talk to about anything really I literally have 25p in my bank that's all 😂 but yeah I keep getting stomach cramps and feeling sick and I'm really exhausted too but I don't know until I test so it's just a waiting game really

Oh and I don't have painful boobs as such like they don't hurt me but when I press them they hurt if that makes sense so they're like tender I think is the word

I'm not one to judge, but if you can't get a pregnancy test, can you afford a baby? No need to answer!! I don't mean it to accuse or anything, just something for you to think about.

Sounds like normal coming off bc and cycles sorting out.
