pregnancy signs or ...ending birth control signs. - Women's Health Message Board

My wife recently stopped taking birth control..on the day after her period she ran oout of pills. So we had intercourse as normal without a condom. This was about 7 days ago...she has been quesy and hot. She is normally very cold.
We are trying to figure out if these are early sign of pregnancy or if they are symptoms of her stopping the pill.

Thanks

Take a pregnancy test . . .

First it is too soon to take a test. Granted there is a chance she could be pregnant but you need to wait a bit longer to an accurate reading witha pregnancy test. It could also very easily just her body trying to adjust to not being on the pill currently.
For a pregnancy test wait at least until her next period is due. Though that coudl be iffy on when that starts since the pill isnt controlling that anymore. If you cant wait that long then give it about 17 to 20 days after the time you had unprotected sex and then she can take a HPT.
