My boyfriend and I are NOT trying to conceive, and I am on Lutera birth control. We had sex on a "safe" day (July 31..one week & 2 days ago..about 2-3 days after last day of period) by means of my birth control as protection only..no condom. Because I am ovulating this week, we have had no had sex, but I noticed when I wiped yesterday (during a fertile day), there was slight brown spotting (mucus-like, but not a lot..sorry for being graphic!) on the toilet paper..This happened again today too several times.
Now I'm freaking out because I think I may be pregnant. I bought a home pregnancy test, but I'm afraid it may be too soon to take it for accurate results. Is this a sure sign of pregnancy? Is it too early to experience spotting and/or symptoms?
I would like real answers, please. I am a mature, 29 year old female who has been in a very long-term relationship, and I am very in-tune with my body and fertile/unfertile days..Please spare me the "no condom" lecture..Thanks in advance!!

If you are on birth control and you are still ovulating then you need to get on a stronger pill. The pill works by stopping ovulation and thickening the cervical mucus. Very very rarely a woman will have breakthrough ovulation. So, if you are indeed ovulating while taking the pill then call your OB/Gyn immediately. Also, when taking the pill you are protected every day--even the week of the placebo pills.
