Hi..
I'm very new to forums and I'm in need of advice, or at least a glimpse at other experiences
I was on the pill (cilest) for 4 years and stopped taking it a month ago. I usually head to the doctors about a month before my pill year is up, but I didnt get chance. But I decided then to give myself a break from it, due to some symptoms I've been experiencing.
About 2-3 months ago I was experiences extreme tiredness (worn off now) but I would be needing a nap for a bout 2-3 hours a day, but still sleeping pretty well at night.
In the last 2-3 months I have gone up a few sizes in clothes, but the weight gain is not like previous weight gain I've experienced. Usually if I gain weight it's very even ~ arms and legs become thicker, still keep waist etc. this time is completely different.
My bra size has gone from a 32C to a 32/34(depending on time of day) to a DD cup, (possibly E) I have never been bigger than a C cup no matter how much weight has been gain previously. My weight is located to my hips and lower abdomen (a little bit to the higher abdomen, depending on what I have eaten)
I feel nauseous in the mornings, but never sick. I have never been a break fast person, but have felt the need to eat cereal most mornings, I can no longer drink tea as it upsets my tum, I have developed a short regular burst of hiccups after most evening meals, not every day but most days.
I've had lower abdomenal twinges, like pulling or pinching of the skin, and increase in wind and my bowels have either been really loose or I've been constipated. (TMI, sorry) I get little flutters, but it's completely different to the feeling I get with gas etc, I can really tell the difference.
These symptoms started while I was still taking the pill, and it's the first time I'd had most of them, especially the boobs!!
I know that a few of these symptoms can be cause coming off the pill too, but as I was still taking it with a lot I know thats not the case.
I still had periods, and was due on yesterday and have a light pink discharge this morning, so it looks like I my get one. However, periods throughout pregnancy is not uncommon in my family, my nan had it with a few of hers, a long with some of my aunties.
I'm wondering what you guys think it could be... Sometimes I really think I am, and other times I think I'm not. I know that if I am, I will be around 10 weeks.
Thanks x
