Pregnancy scare
Ok so I have been on birth control for the past two months . I started my period on either the 13th or 10th of June I can't remember. But I know I was done by that Sunday BC I had unprotected sex June the 19th . He didn't finish in me we are worried about what was in the pre ejaculate. I had been keeping up with my pill well that was until that Thursday June the 23rd that I woke up extra early way before the usual time I take my pill to get ready to leave for orientation . I usually take my pill at 8:30 am. I left my house for orientation that morning about 5:30 and forgot to take my pill. I came back home about 7pm and immediately took my pill. But on the way home I was experiencing some dizziness and nausea. I figured it was because I didn't take my pill until 11-12 hours later . So after I took my pill I went swimming and everything was fine . And got back on track with my normal pill schedule . And then Sunday June 26th I begin feeling weird again . Dizzy and a little car sick I immediately began to panic at the thought of pregnancy. I got my boyfriend to purchase a test and they both came back negative . After I seen the negatives I guess I begin to feel better for a while until that Monday night. The nausea came back and I was feeling shaky and I felt like I couldn't breathe and I just was googling pregnancy symptoms and it seemed like I had everything that was listed I was super scared . So I took another pregnancy test six days later on Wednesday and it came back negative . I said I would save the other one for if I miss my period . I had been thinking about it all week I felt like I was getting the symptoms then on Saturday I went to schlitterbahn. Had the time of my life no symptoms whatsoever . Then the next day I was back to my normal dizziness depression and shakiness . Today is Monday Fourth of July and I was horribly cramping . According to my birth control pills I'm supposed to get my period on the 10th of this month. I wanted to hold the pregnancy test until then but I just couldn't wait so I took it and guess what ? Another negative . I still feel jittery and shaky and it feels like I have a lump in my throat or a piece of food and everything I swallow it down it comes back up . And it's making me rather nauseous. I haven't thrown up yet or nothing and idk if all of this stress about pregnancy the last two weeks has been wearing me down and making my PMS worse or if I actually have a bun in the oven. I don't want to be pregnant my mom would kill me . All my friends are telling me Imma hypochondriac but I can't ignore the way I feel . HELP ?!
