Not sure where to post...

in Trying to Get Pregnant

I posted this in 1st tri, but I don't think its the right place, not really sure if this is. I apologize if not.

I don't really know if I should even be posting here yet (if at all), but I wondered if someone else has had similar experience.

I went on BCP in January to help w/ my PMS symptoms (moods), well along came May and I just didn't feel like it was helping, so I stopped taking it.

I had a regular cycle/period and then about a week or so later I started getting some major bloat that has not and will not subside, VERY sore/sensitive boobs, a tiny bit of spotting a week ago and not a drop since. I realize that these could be symptoms from stopping BCP, but I have talked to a few friends (I know that everyone is different) and none of them have had any pregnancy symptoms after stopping BCP.

That being said, I have now taken 4 home pg tests, all negative and I am few days from what should be my start date for my next period. Doc says to wait it out and see if my P shows up or I get a positive test...but  the suspense is killllling me.

I have a daughter and I got 3 negatives with her, but found out by blood test that I was in fact pregnant the week before my period was due.

I feel like I must be crazy, but I am feeling all the same symptoms I felt with my daughter.

Did any of you get pregnancy symptoms when stopping the pill?

    I know when I was on BC, I didn't have any of those PMS symptoms...however, since getting off BC, I've noticed those symptoms again. I think certain types of BC help prevent those symptoms, if not all BC....so all in all, it could be because you are no longer on BC or it could be pregnancy symptoms.

    Could it just be PMS symptoms?

    A lot of people ask this and the answer is YES! It may just be your body regulating itself or maybe just pms since pms symptoms are very similar pregnancy symptoms.

    Have you read the newbie link at the top? It is very helpful and answers many questions. Hope everything works out for you. GL!

    You have a smart doctor. Keep that one around.

     

    This. There is nothing you can do to hurry up a BFP. Be patient and test again in a week.

    Thanks ladies... I appreciate your responses. I'm just being impatient... Sucks not knowing. 

    I just wondered because these aren't normal pms symptoms for me and didn't know if going off bc causes them for others.

    If you were having "symptoms" one week after your last period then I'm gonna go with it just being your body adjusting.
