VERY IMPORTANT !! (kinda tmi)?

Question

I had my first postpartum appointment today & my dr gave me birth control pills but Ive been havin s*x with no protection for like the last 5 day, but I told the doctor I did it once so she prescribed me the plan b pill & said I couldn't take the bc until I got my period. if I hadn't have, had s*x I would have been able to take the pill today.

SO my question is what would happen if I didn't take the plan b pill & just started the pill?? if I am preg will it hurt the fetus?? & how would I know im pregnant if im on bc??

I don't think im pregnant but obviously its too ealier to tell we used the pull out method (I know that's not 100% effective) & it took me 3 yrs to get pregnant & we used no type of bc. he used to *** in me all the time & we'd have s*x like 5x a day everyday. so I don't think I am pregnant.

my fiance doesn't want me to take the plan b pill. I think he secrectly wants me to get pregnant again. my son will be 4 weeks tomorrow & i am not in a rush to have more.

Answer 1

If your new son is only 4 weeks old you should really still be abstaining from s*x for another two weeks, just to give yourself a break from giving birth! But everyone is different anyway so congrats =]

The pull out method really is not contraception or birth control at all.

He may as well do his thing inside you for what good pulling out does.

You can either start the birthcontrol from when your doctor prescribed or you can wait  for you period to see if it comes.

The plan B pill, I think you mean the morning after pill? Well if that is it then you need to take that 72 hrs after unprotected s*x else it becomes void and wont work to its full affect, it is to stop you getting pregnant at all.

I would wait for my period and then start birthcontrol after it arrived.

Answer 2

The plan b will only work for the last 48-72 hours. so if you have had s*x for 5 days I dont think the pill is going to help.

And starting birth control would be pointless if you are pregnant.

I would suggest wait a couple of weeks to see if things are happening (like pregnancy signs)

Use condoms until then and be careful. It did take you 3 years to conceive the first time but that in no way means it will take that long this time.  Your body know how to get pregnant now! :)

good luck

Answer 3

Its a strange thing but you are actually extremely fertile right after you have had a baby, its like your body is in baby mode with all the hormones floating about so its very possible you could be pregnant regardless of your past difficulties conceiving so I would wait till you get your period before you start the BC pill and I think it may be too late for plan b pill to work, use condoms from now until you get your period and dont take any more chances and keep  your fingers crossed that you arent pregnant already!

Answer 4

birth control caused me to get pregnant.

id say stop taking the pills.

wait till you get your period, and then take a pregnancy test.

if it comes out negative go get another perscription of birth control pills and take them the right way and use a condom for the 1st 2 weeks.

hope i helped :)

Answer 5

I seriously doubt your pregnant, but why dont you wait it out and take a pregnancy test before starting the bc pills.  Also, maybe you should use a condom until then.  

Answer 6

if i were you i'd just wait until you start your period.

there is probably a reason why your doctor told you to wait.

i know people who have got pregnant while using birth control and their baby is fine, but you shouldnt risk it.  it wont change anything if you just wait.

Answer 7

Use another method of birth control until you have your next period and are sure you are not pregnant.  Then you can take the pill.  You should not take it if there is any possibility you are pregnant.  The hormones are not good for the developing embryo.  

Yes, your "fiance" might just want you to have another baby--or 12 more-- but you don't want to right now, so don't allow it to happen.  Take care of yourself and your baby first.  Your body needs at least one year to recover from the work it did to produce a baby.  Give it the time it needs.

"On demand" breastfeeding tends to delay the return of fertility, but should never be relied upon as a sole method of birth control.
