Just need to tell someone I'm nervous..

[smilewinkandnod]

I feel like I should be more scared but for some reason I'm not.. I'm on the pill and had sex last Wednesday with a condom.. I'm always paranoid so safety has always been number 1.. I started the "sugar" pills on Sunday and normally get my period late Monday/Tuesday.. So now it's Saturday and I have no period.. I had some really really faint brown spotting and I thought I felt some craps but nothing normal.. Obviously I'm kinda paranoid I'm pregnant but wouldn't have expected having sex a week ago to affect my period this quickly.. My mind keeps playing tricks on me saying you had spotting your fine, youve had a crazy stressful week so it chased it off aaaand then the other side keeps saying you slept with him too close to your period, you probably didn't take your pill right blah blah blah...

I'm supposed to start my new pack of pills on Sunday but I'm going to put it off for a week and see if I get my period. If I don't I'll buy a test mid-next week (by doing self checkout in a grocery store so nooo one sees me!!)... I don't want to tell anyone, but still felt like it would be better to get it out I guess? I didn't want this to turn into a "aM I PrEgNanT??" sort of thing but I wanted to get it typed out.. The word support seems needed right now.. It's all I think about

Well, putting off starting a new pack may mess it up. It's unlikely that are if you used the condoms and pills correctly, but I would buy a test now instead of putting the pills off. It comes back negative, start the new pack of pills as the hormone levels should be high enough if it is stopping the period to test.

It's not always the case and it is important to practice safe sex every time because the body could ovulate at a weird time, but usually the closer it is to starting the period, the lower the chances of getting pregnant.

If you are very stressed, then that could very well affect your period.
