Could it be ? Here is an interesting question

[Endurer11]

I ran out of birth control pills last month and I seriously thought I reordered them with priority shipping, because i needed to start a new pack on Nov 27, so I was hoping I would get them on the 28th and I could just double up. Well they didnt come until the 30th and my doctor said we should 'be careful' and start the next pack the sunday after my period starts. So, we havent been 'careful' (on purpose) and I actually have been hoping and trying to concieve.

For the last 5 days or so I have been experiencing a burning sensation in my boobs, I also get sharp pains in my breasts as well. I have had lower back aches, constipation, cramping, tired and I feel bloated too. I am expecting my period on the 19th.

I have to consider that I have been on BC pills for 7 years and this is the first time I havent taken them. So I dont know if my body is adapting to that, or if I really am pregnant! I have never been pregnant before so I dont know if all this I am feeling is pregnancy or not - but I can say with 100% certainty that I have never felt all this stuff at the same time before, not have I ever felt "burning" in my boobs!??!?!?

I have tests at home that I am waiting to take. But I dont think I should take them until sunday or monday.

Can anyone relate to any of these symptoms?

First of all, welcome! You'll love it here.

These all look like good signs for pg, but I have to say that last month for about a week before AF (aunt flo/period) showed up I had cramps and tender breasts. It was my second month off bcp.

Now, third month off, I am feeling tired, nauseous, bloated, little tugs in my lower abs, and headache. my fingers are crossed. AF is due Sunday, and I am thinking of testing early...

The unfortunate thing is that PMS and early pg symptoms can often be the same. And, while on bcp you get 28 day cycles, my cycles off have both been 32 days. I'd say wait and test on the weekend with fmu (first morning urine) and see what happens.

GL and hope it's a bfp! And if it's not, wait a few more days and see if AF shows up or test again.
