Two Under 2

I might be joining you... help please!

CryingSo I need some advice.

My boyfriend and I are finally doing better. I've just decided that I have to trust him and I'm trying. It's really hard though.

Well we've had sex 3 times since the baby was born in October. Twice we used condoms and one time we didn't. I'm stupid for not saying anything but I figured I was fine because I've been taking my birth control religiously. Well the night after our 3rd time, I woke up SUPER late and hadn't taken my birth control. I'm on that mini pill that requires you to take it at the same time and if you are 3 hours late, you've "missed" a dose. Well I take mine at 9 AM and I didn't wake up until 1 PM. So I REALLY missed a dose. This was  the day after and it was really close to when I started taking the pills.

I had one period around 6 weeks postpartum but now I'm 13 weeks postpartum and I've had nothing else. One of the nurses at my doctor's office says that between my mini-pill and breastfeeding that I may not have a period. But now I'm paranoid that I might be pregnant again. I ABSOLUTELY CAN'T HAVE ANOTHER BABY! I don't even have money until the 15th to pay for a p-test.

 please help me ladies.

  • I'm sorry you're scared.  It's definitely possible your cycles are just out of whack, it does take some time to get regular again.

    Could you go to a Planned Parenthood for a pregnancy test to find out for sure?  Or if you have a Dollar Tree near you, they sell tests for $1.

  • I feel for you! I am sorry you are scared, too! If it's any consolation, I thought I was PG last month too because I have been soo bad about my pills. I took a couple tests and they were negative. I think your body can just be out of whack after having a baby. My little one is almost 4 and half months, I don't BF and still haven't gotten my cycle.. You are prolly OK. I didn't know about the $1 tests, but that is a good option. Free clinics and Planned Parenthood cold also put your mind at ease.

     

    Take care!

  • With my first I had my first pp period at 10 weeks and didn't get my second pp period until 17 weeks.

    With my second I had my first pp period at 14 weeks and didn't get my second pp period until 20 weeks. 

    So, it's likely that your periods are just out of wack.
