Hey everyone. So this is going to be a bit of a strange question because well it's a bit of a strange situation... I had a son in 2012 and have been taking birth control non-stop since (as in...no 7 day break, no period for 4 years)... well about a year and a half ago I had weight loss surgery, a malabsorptive kind that means I don't absorb nutrients, medication, etc, as well as I used too.. or there is the potential that I don't and since then I've had my period, while on the pill 3 times in the last year and a half.. a month ago I went off the pill and my last period started on July 8th, 2016. Ended on the 13th. By all accounts it's not due yet for another week but I'm now sitting here wondering if I'm pregnant. I've never had a regular period anyways, before I went on BC non-stop I'd sometimes go 6+ months without one... I was told I'd likely never have kids because I don't ovulate properly because of my weight.. well I've lost almost 150lbs.. weight is gone and I got my son the first time that I dropped 60lbs.. anyhow my symptoms are this... for 3 days straight I've felt EXTREMELY tired, like I got 8-9 hrs of sleep each night but still felt like I hadn't slept a wink, my dreams are more vivid (but this can be ascribed to the nortripyline medication I take as it causes vivid dreams). Also my lower back has been killing me, I felt some mild cramps/pressure in my uterus almost like a "full" feeling in my uterus the same days I was exhausted, I have NO appetite and the thought of putting food in my mouth just makes me feel ugh.. I'm not nauseous or anything just irk I really don't want to eat and when I do everything tastes funny.. either has no taste at all or its like everything has been dipped in sugar and it's WAY too sweet... no metallic taste that I've really noticed though... also my sense of smell is stronger but not super strong like it was with my son, and somedays I pee like a freight train and others I don't... Also I felt really hot and flushed, like I had a fever or something but I didnt...and yesterdya my heart rate was elevated by about 10 beast per minute....all of these symptoms were there for the past 3 days and then today I don't feel any of that at all (except the no appetite thing.. still got that one)! Today what I'm dealing with is irritability, I'm getting pissed off and annoyed at things that don't usually bug me and my face feels like I haven't washed it for a week and I've got TWO pimples on my chin... I haven't had acne since I was a teenager! (I'm 29 btw...) also no my breasts don't hurt but they never hurt at all with my son either... and even when I did get my periods before, and this last one I've never had any PMS symptoms ever except a little moodiness... took a test yesterday and it said negative but I wont be "late" for another week! I don't know if I want to be or if I don't want to be... ACK! whatcha think? Is it just PMS or did my hubby with the super sperm knock me up? (I say that because 2 of his 4 children were born to mothers on the pill and one to me who was told she'd never be able to have kids)
