I was actually going to ask the same question. Anyone else know of someone? How long were they taking the pill?

Brideinapril: How long did it take you to realize that you were pregnant? Had you had any breakthrough bleeding during that time? What were your symptoms?

Sorry for all the quesitons. I am probably just being paranoid.

I realized it about 3 weeks in when my boobs got swollen and sore, no breathrough bleeding. I just all of a sudden got really tired, I could not keep my eyes open. I remember it so clearly!!! I took a HPT and it immediately said I was preggo.

Re: Has anyone themselves or know anyone who has gotten pregnant while on the pill? (and actually been taking it correctly)

Thanks for the info. I should have gotten my period either yesterday or today. I am feeling cramps, so maybe it is just a little late. I had skipped my period twice with my pills for the wedding and also for another event, and then I had some breakthrough bleeding a few weeks ago. I don't think it will come to this, but when should you take a pregnancy test (how many days after your missed period?)?

Thanks! I need some reassurance. DH and I have kind of decided that we don't want children (We have other plans in life) so this would throw everything off.

Yay! I got my period last night. I hate this worrying stuff each month when I'm only a day late. Thanks for the support!

Re: Has anyone themselves or know anyone who has gotten pregnant while on the pill? (and actually been taking it correctly)

I guess that's my question - if taking it 100% consistenetly every single day - no antibiotics, etc. - it can still happen???

Isn't the pill something like 98% effective...so I guess there's always that 2% chance...or whatever the percent is.
