Early Pregnancy Symptoms?

So my boyfriend and I went on a vacation last month, and i was screwing up on my birthcontrol because of the time difference.
Now i’m scared i might be pregnant.
I’ve been nauseous since saturday, off and on. Today (wednesday) its constant nausea. My breasts are sore and swollen, i’ve got low back discomfort, i’ve been having major mood swings, my last period came, but only lasted 2 and a half days (compared to the normal 7), and i’ve been having minor headaches.
My period isnt supposed to come for another 2 weeks, so i cant take a home pregnancy test yet.. suggestions?

Sounds like its withdrawal from the pill.

Every symptom you’ve described is a side effect of screwing up times on your pill..

Only…it CAN catch you out. But its a little early to have all those.

Still…you should get a test. There not very expensive and its a safe thing to do :)

could still be a pill side effect. you can take an early detection pregnancy test. i mean, if your last period was only 2 days that may be indicative of pregnancy. (not to worry you- just saying if it WERE an indication, then it’s not too early for a test.)

I know…its happened to me too.

Even if you are late or early by a few hours on ONE day it can still happen.

Seen as its ovulation its even more likely that you have messed it up because its like the hormones shift.

From what you’ve said i’m about 80% sure that its your pill. But even so, when the first day of your period is due, take a test even if you do come on. Just to be safe.

It’s not too early to take the test. Go get one right away. Sounds like you are pregnant. You’re period being only 2 days! Has that ever happened before? That’s what happened to me when I was pregnant.
