Birth Control Issues and Bad Timing
I was having issues with my birth control (nuvaring) so I took it out (it was only in for one day), called my doctor's office and got a prescription for something else. Due to some miscommunication between my doctor's office, the pharmacy, and me, it took three days to get the new prescription. The pharmacist told me to wait until Sunday to start taking it, since I usually start on Sundays. So at this point I've pretty much been off the b/c for two weeks.
I told DH we would need to be careful this month because I wasn't sure the b/c would be so effective this month. Well, Friday night, in the heat of the moment we didn't use a condom. I used to ovulate on day 12 of my cycle (Friday). I do realize that so many things could have changed with my body/cycle since I had DD and it was just one night, but part of me is freaking out. I kind of feel like I'm in a 2ww again, but the anticipation is completely different this time.

Re: Birth Control Issues and Bad Timing
The anticipation is the worst. I still make DH use a condom even though I'm on the mini pill because I'm paranoid.
Hope everything works out ok!
I think that's part of the problem too. I was kind of thinking it wouldn't be so bad to get pregnant again. But then again, can we really afford another child? I think I might actually be a little disappointed if I'm not pregnant.
