Hello

I have completely convinced myself that I am pregnant, however I have had 4 negative tests. I know they can take a while to show but I am going mad in the mean time and could be putting my life on hold for nothing.

I came off the pill and then went back on it for a short while and came back off at the end of September. I had a "period" during the last week in Sept and then I didn't have another period until the beginning of Nov, however very light. We have been having unprotected sex since I came off the pill (withdrawal method) and pretty much within a week or so of having my period I started with bloating. I have now been permanently bloated for over a month, sometimes worse than others and this is unusual for me. During the second week I had some queasiness, headache and light headed. My boobs have been fuller for about a month and nipples changed and sometimes leak a small amount of clear/yellow liquid. My nails have grown and are really strong and this has never been the case. Over the last couple of days I have noticed veins on my legs, feet and chest. Some vaginal discharge. No period as yet. Ive booked to see the doctor on Monday but it is proper doing my nut. I am fine with being pregnant, I'm nearing 26 and me and my partner have been together 8 years, its just the not knowing.

Does anyone know what else this could be?:confused:

Cheers

This could be pregnancy, but it also could be your body adjusting to coming off the pill. It takes a while for your body to begin to make the natural hormones again after having been given hormones via the pill.

A doctor's appointment is a good idea.

J_9 makes a good point. I just came off the pill a few months ago and (besides the nipple discharge and bulging veins) I've experienced everything you described and I am not pregnant.

The nipple discharge concerns me a little. Make sure you mention that to your doctor. :)
