Getting pregnant on BCP?

jade0514 · February 2009

We're slightly freaking out. Last Wed. I took a pregnancy test first thing in the morning because my (TMI) nipples were sensative, I was peeing like never before and I thought "let me just take one to rule it out so I'll feel better". I saw a SUPER faint line. I mean, faint as faint can be. It was a week before my period (which will be here this coming Wed. - hopefully). My nipples are now on and off sensative, still peeing a lot though and last night after sex I had some pink blood, which only happened the last time I was pg. I've been on BCP for 7 months now, but this past month there was a week span where I would forget to take it at night at my normal time, and would take it the next morning.

I'm praying my period comes on Wed. as we're just not ready for a new baby. How does it work when you're on BCP and you don't take your pill at the same time... does it force your body to ovulate? Or would your body still ovulate at the normal time, around day 14 (average of course)? If it would still ovulate at my normal time when not on BCP, then I should be safe... but if it forces your body to ovulate due to hormone changes, then I may be in trouble.

Ack... I'm sick of waiting until Wed!!!

Ok STOP FREAKING OUT! That can make your body do some crazy ***! BELIEVE ME! I have thought I was pregant at least 6 times out of the last 12 months! IT IS CRAZY! When you worry about it your body just does weird stuff. I don't think a HPT would show if you are pregnant or not a week before your period - IMO! If it DID then you should be able to take another and it show a faint line - do you still have the test?! If so PIP! ....lol.

On another note - we got pregnant the first month off of BCP with Paige - I am thinking we are super fertile or something and this does scare me. I NEVER take my pill at the same time. We go to bed at all different hours and I take it when we go to bed. And if I forget I take it the next morning and sometimes the next afternoon or night. So I would stop freaking till you can test and be sure! GL! I hope it is what you want!

haha no I don't still have the test. It was so faint that I doubt it would even show up on camera. I took a digital one the next day and it said not pregnant, but I feel like it was way too early for the digital.

I'm trying not to freak, but AGH! haha... one is enough for two more years!! I have thought I've been pregnant a lot since he was born.. what is the deal with us?? haha!
