stupid ? but i dont know who else to ask(little update!)

i dont post here cuz were not offically TTC and want to wait at least a year... heres my ?... is it possible to get pregnant on BCP? (i know i should know the answer im a nurse) i just havent been feeling "myself" crazy cravings.. but if i was.. it would have had to happen on the wedding night or on HM... and i DOuBT it would show up on any test? since it was only 17 days ago.... also i got AF.. but a friend of mine said she knew someone who was preggo on BCP and was still getting AF for 5 months.. and reading all these threads you ladies seem to be experts.. so please help.. What do you ladies think.. am i just a hot mess or is this a possibility?Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

UPDATE:

just thought id thank you girls again for being so kind also just to let you know i tested this morning and BFN (thank goodness we would love a baby but just not yet we're broke) Hopefully ill be back on this board in a year actively TTC!

good luck to all you TTC'ers Chat Icon

Did you ever "fix it" by taking extra pills to make up for the ones that you missed?

It is possible. The lady I used to sit for had two kids, one was conceived on BCP and the other was a condom baby.

I would POAS if you are still feeling funny in a few days.

yes, it can happen.

were you on an antibiotic or other prescription? they can often decrease the effectiveness of BCP.

i dont know if you are pregnant or not but you just changed your ENTIRE life in a single day. it is common to be emotional and just feel DIFFERENTLY.

I gained ten pounds in the three months after my wedding - it can be a big adjustment!!

Re: stupid ? but i dont know who else to ask

from what i understand, AF while on BCP is not a true AF. it's only withdrawal bleeding. if you feel like something is up, i would definitely test. it would put your mind at ease so what's the harm. 17 days is long enough.
