-- Posted by Anonymous at 3:30 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 I'm a bit worried here. I'm on the contraceptive pill and have been since January, and me and my partner always use condoms just to be safe... just because that's my preference. But a couple of weeks ago, one thing led to another and we had sex without using a condom. I haven't thought of it or worried about it since until now. I've noticed my stomach has become really firm (and I'm like, never that way lol) and it's slightly larger than usual, only a little bit though. I'm worried I may be pregnant even though I'm on my bleed now... :/ I know it sounds stupid but my stomach has never been this way before and I'm a tad worried. Heh, any ideas as to what to do? -- Posted by greeneyedbeauty at 3:31 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 Just go buy a pregnancy test. Better safe than sorry. -- Posted by MusicX at 3:33 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 It's prob just hormones from your period. Or it could be constipation since those are the symptoms of it. Plus you wouldn't notice your stomach getting bigger till after a couple months. But take a test just to be sure -- Posted by NikkiMikki at 3:34 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 You could be bloated. -- Posted by Anonymous at 3:36 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 Quote: from NikkiMikki at 11:34 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 You could be bloated. That's what I thought at first, but when I suck in it really hurts... I've never been bloated before so I don't know if this is normal. -- Posted by 2kewl4u2know at 3:37 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 It's called constipation.  And don't say "well I've never had it before" because in case you haven't figured it out, periods don't always stay the same. -- Posted by Anonymous at 3:37 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 Quote: from musicxmaniac at 11:33 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 It's prob just hormones from your period.

For some reason, that came across as snotty. Thanks for your advice though... I think. :/ I know periods don't stay the same, I just needed some reassurance on this one little thing 'cause I was worried. Sorry. ¬_¬ -- Posted by Anonymous at 3:38 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 Quote: from greeneyedbeauty at 11:31 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 Just go buy a pregnancy test. Better safe than sorry.

Sorry. ¬_¬ Sorry, I'm being a little snappy today.  Really though, don't worry about it.  That's how my stomach gets right about the time I hit my period...btw, sex helps ease the pain.  Just thought I'd throw that out there. -- Posted by Enigma of Eternity at 3:43 pm on Oct. 9, 2008 Its probably gas.
