I am confused

[Thomas'mum]

Hi

I haven't been on this site for years but I need your opinion on this one. Last April, I had an ectopic pregnancy which resulted in losing one trunk.
I had my periods on the 4th of Jan and they lasted about 8 days. I am on the pill but as soon as my periods ended, my boobs started to feel sore and I am experiencing the same symptoms than when I got pregnant.
Could you still get pregnant? My OH has got super sperm lol Last time I ran out of pill for 4 days and got pregnant!!! I know I haven't forgotten it once this time but I am worried that if I am pregnant, it will end up as another ectopic as I am still taking the pill just in case I am not pregnant. The doctors reckon my last pregnancy was lost due to the fact I was taking the pill for the first 5 weeks.
What do you think?
How early can you test?
Thank you

I think that the blood tests by the doctors are the most sensitive. The clear blue digi says it can test 4 days b4 your period due date but it is less reliable then. If it's stressing you out ask your doctor - at least you'll know one way or the other hx

hey hunny, from what ur saying id say u can test now, id stay away from any digi unless its frer digi for now as CB digi are not as sensitive as they claim to be hun, take a test soon if its positive then u know u can stop the pills and yes its defo possible to get preg on the pill i didnt miss one and got preg with my son

You can still get pregnant on the pill - sometimes there is an obvious reason like taking another medication or maybe having the flu, sometimes you can do everything right and it still happens.
With both of my pregnancies I got BFPs a week or so before my expected period using non-digital tests. First Response got me a BFP a week early, and a cheap store brand test got me a positive this time around about 10 days early. I do not believe that the more expensive tests work better.
I hope you get the answer you are looking for. Best of luck!
