Hi all, I'm new to these foums so I'm not sure if im posting in the right place.

I have a few questions about the early signs of pregnancy. I had my last period on the 16th June, although this is not when it should have been, im on the pill and it was supposed to arrive about a week later. Whilst still on the pill the bleeding continued for 2 days, so i decided to stop taking the pill and 'have my period', with the aim of starting over. I was off the pill, or in the inactive phase for 7 days after this, commencing them again on the 8th day. Over the last two weeks I have just been feeling off, whenever I eat i feel sick (initally i though this may be due to food poisioning or somthing), i then got a yeast infection (never had one before) and my breast have become all sore in the nipple, kinda like they are bruised and ultra sensitive, a towel brusing over them hurts. I thought that this may all be due to the pill, though in the two years i have been on this brand of pill i have never had any side effets like these. Last night i had a mild case of heart burn (never ever had this before) and then got all queesy and threw up...very unexpected.

So I am wonding if I could be pregnant, even though I am on the pill... oh i should add in here that I have been on antibiotics as well, for my skin, although i have been on them for about a year now (dioxycycline) Is it possible that the pill I have been on for the past two years may suddenly become ineffective and that sometime between my last period and now I have concieved and implanted? I know i wouldn't have implanted yet if my cycle was on track, but is it possible that ovulation and implantaion have already occoured? How long do you think before i can test and get a true result?
Replies would be greatly appeciated!

hi i just read Zarae your comments. I dont know much about all this but darkening and sore nipples is one of the early signs and can happen very quickly after conception. I have the same thing - really sore and hard nipples that are ultra sensitive, no sickness though. I have done a pregancy test that was negitive but i would only be 2-3weeks and i haven't missed my period yet. I had a pregancy about 6 years ago and i remeber doing a pregancy test at this stage for the same reason and it was negitive. I am not convinced i am not pregnant but dont want to get my hope up. Is sickness a side effect of you antibiotics and isn't getting thrush?? just a thought. good luck if your trying any thoughts on my comments would be appreciated

Hi smudge24, thaks so much for your reply!

I did a pregnancy test myself today, and got a negative, but I think that I may be in the same place as you.... too early to tell. Frustrating isnt it!!

It's the same way here, i want to get all excited and stuff too, but I don't want to get my hopes up only to have them dashed... talk about the pits. Waiting is the worst!

I wouldn't think so, ive been on the same antibiotics for almost a year and they have never made me sick or given me thrush before... but hey you never know. I hope im not reading too much into my symptoms, i know its early and I should have them if I am pregnant, but im trying to be objective!

Keep me posted and i do so hope that you get your wish!!!!!

I doubt that you are pregnant, birth control can make changes in your period and your boobs...

I got a question. My girlfriend is on the pill and I ejaculated in her 3 times this month. She was not late or missed a pill all month. On wednesday she started spotting and her placebo pills start friday (today). She usually gets her period on Sundays, so she spoted 3-4 days early. Could that be a sign of pregnancy or is this normal? She said its never happened before.

sometimes it just happens. I sometimes have a bit of spotting a day or two before my period is due. Especially if I'm a little off with taking the pill. (as in, my an hour or two) I wouldn't be worried at this point.
