I've been off my birth control since May 6th. Had my first period in three years, July 6th and it only lasted till the 12th. We have unprotected sex and I worry that I will get pregnant and not know it. At this point, we're not really trying to have a baby, but we ain't trying to stop it either- we're gonna let it happen in it's own without getting stressed and disappointed. I'm worried I won't know when I get pregnant because at the moment, I smoke cigarettes and drink every now and then. I'm not gonna smoke when I'm pregnant but it worries me. I feel like a worry wart and that I shouldn't be worried about it.
@babymama85, that's what I'm really worried about and have been trying to stop. I'm making it a goal to stop by September, I know that's a while away but I feel like I can quit by then
I've been using ovia love that app , well if there irregular one way to know is if you go a whole month without a period @kayla23
@Kayla23, if you're off birth control, I would be very careful about smoking and drinking.....personally I wouldn't do it. Some women don't know they're pregnant until 8 weeks or so and by then a lot of development has occurred.... And smoking snd drinking during that time wouldn't be very good for baby.
thank you @countrymama121 but before I got birth control, my periods were irregular. I'm using the Ovia app to try and keep up with them
@Kayla23, well that's better than later! Good luck! When I stopped birth control trying to get pregnant with my daughter, I got pregnant the next week lol. This go around, it was 3 months before I got pregnant.
