I have been taking Yasmin now for about 6 or 7 months, prior to that I was on Mircette for about 3 months, so I have been on bc for about 1 year. I forgot to take the last 3 pills in the 3rd week of my pack, which would have been thursday friday and saturday, well, I started my period on saturday when i shouldn't have started til tuesday, but because i wasnt' taking the pills is prob why i started early. My boyfriend and I had sex on Monday, I started a new pack of pills on tuesday. I took the whole first week, then monday tuesday wednesday of the 2nd week i have missed, and I haven't taken any to catch up on them. I am now spotting a little bit. Is it possible for me to be pregnant? Any ideas, suggestions???
Thanks!:)

Yes, it's possible. The spotting you describe could be implantation spotting. If you miss more than one pill in a pack, you need a backup bc method (such as condoms) for the remainder of that month. You also should take the pill you missed as soon as you remember. I suggest you take a home pregnancy test. You might want to take more than one just to make sure. If you test too early and are pregnant, you'll get a false negative.

I took a HPT a couple weeks ago and it was negative. Still no sign of AF, I have had some cramping like I'm going to start, but nothing as of yet. I think I should probably take another one. It has been about 4 weeks since I took my last BCP, I quit mid-pack. I haven't had a real period since probably May, because my pills have been so screwy. My b/f and I were wanting to have a baby and I wanted to be pregnant so bad, but there has been alot of stress going on here in the past week, I don't know if it would be the best thing right now. I guess time will tell! I will test again though, as soon as I can get to the store to buy a HPT :)
Thanks for the reply!
