I go through Caremark which mails my prescriptions to me. There was some problem with the refill so I didn't get them in time to start a new pack since you are supposed to start on the first day of your period. Well, being the idiot that I am, my bf and I had sex on the 29th not even thinking about it (because I have been on b.c. for 6 years) and I ovulated on the 1st. Now I am freaking out because that is absolutely the prime time to get pregnant. He pulled out but my 15 year old niece is a perfect example of just how ineffective that is.
I am losing my mind now because I know I can't take a pregnancy test until 5 days before my period and even then they aren't that accurate. So I don't know if I am noticing things because I'm freaking out and they always happen or if these things really are new. I am having a lot more discharge than normal (but once again I could always have this much and am only noticing it now because I'm scared). I haven't had any breast tenderness or morning sickness but it has only been a couple days.
My sister was on b.c. for 7 years and her obgyn told her that after being on it for a while it's almost impossible to get pregnant the month after you stop but I'm still really scared. There really isn't anything I can do now but wait. I guess I just wanted to get that off my chest. I feel like such an idiot!
