Trying to Conceive Forum

i didn't really know where to post this but here will do.

i havent been trying to get preg but i havent had a period for at least 3 months maybe 4 or 5.

I came off the pill cerizette (sp?) about 2 months ago.

I got signs like tiredness, hunger, headaches, very little sickness a few wks ago. The lower part of my stomache is really bloated and i can hardly fasten my jeans. i get slight period cramps but their more like those streatching pains. My boobs seem bigger too. Oh yes i've also so been having that white/clear discharge you get whilst preg on and off. And i feel like there could be a life there but not totally conviced as i've felt that before.

I was wondering if anyone else has had these symtoms after comeing off the pill?

I did a preg test a few days ago, it was £1.50 but said 99 % accurate. it was negative

I have just gone through exactly the same thing. It was just wind the movment i had. Also the the white/clear discharge was thrush but really high up thats why my tummy was bloated. Go to your gp as this could be something similar.

I also came off the pill but we have used protection.

Well i went to the docs and she thought i was pregnant but when she felt my tummy she said she couldn't feel the womb. althought she said i was bloated. She did a preg test and it was negative. She took a water sample and she said my white blood cell count was quite high but there was no evidence of a water infection or anthing else wrong which she thought seemed a little strange. I have to take another sample in today and tommorow i have to go for a blood test. I also said do you know why i haven't had a period in 5 months andshe said i don't know but it's something we are going to have to find out.

Now im wondering what it is their looking for in my blood and urine. Any ideas?

I had all similar signs for the last couple of months - and I was on Cerazette. I did a pg test in November, which was negative - although I didn't know where I was on my cycle as I hadn't had af for a few months. I did another test on 31 December - purely because I felt so bad - and planned to go to the docs in the New Year to change pills - and it was positive!

It seems that I was pg when I did the first test in November, but it must have been too early to show in the result.

I also know someone else who has a 10 month old baby girl, who fell pg on Cerazette too.

I hope they get to the bottom of this for you with the blood tests. It's no fun feeling like this and not knowing what's happening!

UPDATE. i have finally come on, and i am making up for lost time!

As for the phantom preg im sure i've had that a few times when everything feels so right and you are near 100% sure your preg but then the tests say negative. I have never got to the scan stage though.

Still awaing the test results. It will be a week on tuesday i think since i had the tests done. Can anyone tell me is it one or two wks for results to come back as i can't recall, thanks
