Thread: Help! I'm really worried about specific situation and can't sleep!?

I'm freaking out about being pregnant...
I started taking birth control on December 28, 2008. From what I was told, it takes like a full month for the pill to take full effect. So, my boyfriend and I didn't have sex until I started my second pack of pills. Here's what been going on and why I'm worried:

--It was around Jan 15, 2009 that I started to breakthrough bleed, yet I still had 3 more days to go until I got to the placebo week on my pills which started the week of Jan 18 - 24th. I think the bleeding stopped on Jan 22nd, if I remember. I started my second month of pills on Jan 25th. Because of the breakthrough bleeding I'm afraid that I still ovulated.

--I have never missed a dose on my pill before. I take it religiously, and always remember to take it around the same time everyday like I'm supposed to.

--The very first time we had sex was on January 31, 2009. We used a condom, and that night it was uncomfortable, so we gave it a try without the condom--He didn't ejaculate inside, maybe some precum, and was only in me for probably less than a minute without it. He said I shouldn't worry since I remember to take my pill correctly, hopefully he's right.

--We had sex a couple more times and a condom was used for the entire times.

--Yesterday, my breasts started feeling a little sore again and I'm more tired than usual and getting p*ssed off for no reason. I read that these are pregnancy symptoms and can start as early as one week after sex. I'm so scared that I got pregnant on that fateful night of Jan 31, 2009. So, after I left my boyfriends place earlier tonight, I bought a home pregnancy test. When I read the instructions, it said to wait a day before your expected missed period (mine is supposed to start on Feb 16th) and that testing too early can give a false negative. So that means I have to wait till then to take the test.

It's going to be the longest f**king week of my life!! Is there anyway I can find out sooner? I don't have insurance, since I'm only a seasonal employee that's been looking for a full time job, so I don't know what to do? Can I still be pregnant if I've been using my pill correctly?

I don't think that you can be preg if you're using the pill. But, if there was precum, then there's still the possibility that some sperm entered your vag and later your uterus. Go to a doctor and seek help immediately. Good luck.
