The last time I had unprotected sex was the beginning of july. I saw the OB/GYN mid-august, she said all is well. I had two home pregnancy tests come back negative, and i began what i thought was a period (pretty light for me) so i began birth control pills in september. now my middle is getting thick, though I am not gaining weight, and my breasts are swollen and sore. I have been nauseous off and on every day for about a month. Two more home tests, two more negatives. Last month, got a "period" when i took the green pills in the pack, but again was light. now i have this gurgling and bubbling in my intestinal area, that comes and goes. and i feel like there's something pushing on the bottom of my lungs and it's hard to breathe. still, OB/GYN says if home tests are negative all is well. just want to hear from women that have had children, tell me if my instincts are correct or if i'm just overreacting. i have an appointment with the doc on the 16th.

You are absolutely not over reacting. Us women know our bodies and if u feel that something isnt right or not normal youve gotta get it checked out. That bleeding couldve been implatation bleeding.
If your home tests are negative the only thing you can do is discontinue your bc and wait for your appointment, your OB should do a blood test to check your HCG levels.
Good luck sweetie.
I actually have my appt on the 16 too- but its my ultrasound to see if my baby is a boy or a girl. Ull be in my thoughts and prayers

I seriously don't think that you are pregnant. Nonthing points to you being so. I think you might be overly thinking about it and are stressing yourself out. All the pregnancy tests you have done all coming back negative should be reassurance enough. The fact that even though light you have had your periods. Sometimes women go through times when they do have light periods, other times heavy and other times normal. I am sure when you go to the doctor you will be assured even more so. In the meantime stop worrying you are going to get yourself paranoid.
Those feelings you are having in your tummy are not pregnancy related. Even if you were pregnant you would not be feeling anything pushing up by your lungs at such an early stage. The thickening around your waist is due to you taking the birth control pills. It is the change in your hormone levels. It is a common thing when you are on the pill. The gurgling is probably because you are hungry. Good luck to you and please stop worrying.

Possible side effects of birth control pills are nausea, weight gain, headaches, dizziness, and breast tenderness. In addition, the Pill may cause changes in your menstrual flow. I am wondering if the problems with your stomach and lungs may be attributed to the stress you are feeling about not knowing if you are pregnant combined with your body getting used to the hormones that are in birth control pills. I would suggest taking one more home pregnancy test before seeing your doctor. If that is negative again, I would say you are probably not pregnant, and you can maybe relax a little until you see the doctor for a professional opinion. It is possible for it to take 3 months or so being on the Pill before your body gets used to it.

If you have taken all those tests and still gotten your period, most likely you are not. Its good that you have an appointment though, because your symptoms could mean something serious. They might not, but best to get checked. The doc can also draw blood for a test just to make sure. Good luck.

I believe you're overreacting, I'm 4 months pregnant , with your exact same symptoms, but I also had the same symptoms 6 months ago when I thought I was pregnant, its all in your head. Even if the last time you had unprotected sex was in September, you would have a harmone variant, that would show in the hpt. And trust doctors know what they're talking about. If she/he said all is well than all is well.

Side effects of the pill include nausea, weight gain, and swollen/tender breasts. These side effects should go away by the 3rd or 4th month. If this doesn't happen, see your doctor to be prescribed a different pill.

I would say no. Sounds like you are just bloated or maybe have gas pain. I get like that sometimes too. I have had two kids, but everyone has different symptoms. I would wait till you go to the doctor obviously but maybe the lighter periods are stress related. Good luck either way!

You could just be experiencing side effects from the pill.
If you are still worried about it have them check you out at your doctor appointment. I would be very rare to be pregnant and have negative tests.

it would be much less annoying to respond to if we knew if she had ignored a era, whilst she replaced into having intercourse as against whilst she had her final era, and he or she may be dealing with menopause formerly in existence. the two way, they are warning signs yet she ought to definitely have a bladder an infection, cysts on her stomache or intestinal tract, or somewhat some different digestive issues. Take a try or circulate to the rfile and have a blood draw taken.
