  • is anyone still out there? :confused:
    I've just been thinking and now I've decided that I might be pregnant :eek: but I'm probably just being overly paranoid ... thing is, I'm on the pill, but I'm not brilliant at taking it :o and have had a stomach bug in the last couple of months ... and I've put on a lot of weight in the last few months - without eating more than usual. And I'm feeling funny/dizzy a lot and get hot really easily ... and (TMI ALERT!) my periods have been really light the last couple of months.

    Am I just being stoopid? Maybe tomorrow I should get a test? Or maybe it's just my overactive brain?! :o

    If I am then it's REALLY bad timing - me and boyf have just split up (ironically because he never wants kids) and I've only just started my dream job. So wouldn't be entitled to full maternity benefits ...

    ARGH!

    definitely get a test to put your mind at read DB. Apparently there are some for £1 in Poundland (I think - sure I've read that on here)

  • Thanks BB! I'm sure I'm just being stupid and that I've just put on weight because I'm lazy! but I've certainly got myself worked up about it now!

    best to know really rather than worrying. Worrying about it could be making you more stressed and it goes round in a circle.
