Backgroud: I have been off birth control for a little over a year and my husband and have either used the pull out method or no method at all - we weren't trying to have babies but also not trying to NOT have babies either. I also only have 1 ovary and figured that I could only get pregnant half of the year when the 1 ovary is ovulating. When I told my OBGYN this he said that's not true but never got to explain why.
There have been plenty of times that my husband and I have had sex on every day of my fertile week and he has "finished" in me but no pregos. (I was pregnant once before my husband but I have no kids).

Current Situation:
Today is Sept 6
Yesterday I had some brown (with a little pink) discharge but no other signs. It stopped at night and then started up again today.
My last pd was 8/12-8/19
My fertile week was 8/25-9/30
We had sex on the 27th, 29th and September 1st
I took my temp with a regular themometer and it was 97.7 yesterday and 97.9 today.

What do you think?

A regular thermometer isn't accurate enough to do a basal Temp chart with, there is a special high precision one for that... and you would have to do that every day at the same time for it to mean anything. Unless you do you really aren't sure when you ovulate.

SO in effect you were trying ot get pregnant, because no protection signifies that... and the pull out method really isn't going to stop much, more like compairing splashing water on the floor vs pouring the entire cup on the floor. The floor still gets wet. Just not as wet.

You can get away with it for years, or it might happen the first time you do it.

If you need to know if you are pregnant... take a HPT first thing in the moring with the first pee.

I know pull-out is not BC... that's why I said we weren't really trying to "control birth" - lol or pregnancy really. The fact is that sometimes we would use no BC at all and nothing for year. Even while having sex literally every day for months.

New question - If I am only in the implantation stages would a pregos test give accurate results? I figured I should wait a few days - that's why my impatience brought me here.

Waiting a few days or even a week or so would be a good idea as you suspected... to be more sure the result is accurate.

Doesn't help for the anxiety of wanting to know... but as they say, good things come to those who wait.
