Hi all, I've posted about this before and I know I am being irrational but I can't help myself. I constantly worry about being pregnant even though I am on the pill and a strong pill at that, I make sure I take it at the exact time of day, every day without fail. If I even suspect anything could have interfered with it at all whether it be a "bad belly" that most people would consider normal or something else completely obsessive. The last few pills in each pack I count down the minutes until I'm due on my period and then fret uncontrollably if I have any symptoms of pregnancy such as feeling sick/dizzy/stomach pains etc (I also have bad IBS so you can see how bad things get).
This month I did my usual freak out over passing a relatively normal stool that was slightly softer than the norm, even though the pill instructions say only extreme diahorrea can knock protection and you can miss upto 2 pills before youre at risk I went straight down to the pharmacy demanding the morning after pill for peace of mind (this is about the 4th time I've taken it possibly not needing it but worrying in advance about the worry I would have all month if I hadn't taken it.
Anyway so its been 2 weeks since I took the MA pill and I'm due on my period in 5 days, I have all of a sudden developed very tender boobs that are sore to touch and I have CONVINCED myself I am pregnant even though a) nothing else has interfered with my pills b) I dont really think looking at it rationally I needed to take the ma pill in the first place and c) I took the MA pill 24hours afterwards so it would still be classed as 95% effective.
Other times that I have taken levonelle I have had different side effects upto 4 weeks after so the only thing keeping me sane is that the tenderness is an after effect as it has only been 2 weeks or that it has triggered my pmt to come early as it states in the instructions it may do this to some people.
I can't take a test because I would only be two weeks if i was pregnant and I don't think I can cope with the thought until the weekend when I'm due my period. Can someone give me some help as my boyfriend thinks I'm being ridiculous and I can't talk to him about it!?
