Could i be Pregant? Or is it the Birth Control?

Hi, i was wondering could i be pregnant if i take birth control (Loestrin24 Fe) When i first started taking birth control i threw up the first morning, and that was the only time i threw up while taking Loestrin. And during the first month i was spotting and i eventually got my period on normal timing. now its my 2nd month and i havent missed any days taking the pill, but i have been having unprotected sex, and my stomach looks a little bigger, and if am in heat for to long my stomach starts to hurt and i feel like i have to throw up, i havent been spotting like the first month but if i just put any pressure on my stomach it hurts, it hurts when i lay on my belly too. but today around 9:30 am i threw up. I feel like i have been more tired and if i sit down for a while and then stand up i feel dizzy, im not sure if this is all from the pill, but i am having very different symtoms now then the first month taking the pill

Thank you please let me know what you think about this

Jesus, why are all these teens going around having unprotected sex???
Birth control isn't 100% effective YOU NEED TO USE CONDOMS TOO!

It's gunna take a a while for the pill to take FULL EFFECT on you... and it will cause you to get sick, have weird/late/early periods... and you stomach wouldn't be getting "bigger" this early in the pregnancy ANYWAYS if we WERE pregnant.

I don't think you're pregnant.
All the signs you're talking about is from the pill.
I've seen my 15 year old sister go through the same exact stuff when she first started the pill earlier this year, and she regulated 3 months after taking the pill.

Everyone is different. Some people regulate sooner than others.

Specially if this is your first time taking birth control, it's gunna take a little longer.
My sister has been off and on different birth controls since she was 13. So her body's used to the pill, you on the other hand, if this is your first time on it, your body's gunna go a little whacky.

They have this new kind of birth control, I forget what it's called, but it's this little thing that they implant into your uterus.
It protects against pregnancy for up to 5 years, and it can be removed if you decide when you're 18, you don't wanna have it there anymore and want to try for a baby.

I know that's what I'm probably gunna be looking into after I have my baby.
Cuz it's gunna take about 4 years to get my degree in college, and by the time the thing is expired, I'll be ready for another.
And it's perfectly safe for breast feeding mothers.

Maybe you should look into that if you don't like the whole pill taking thing.
Ontop of that, you can never "Miss" a day... you'll always have it there and not have to worry.

But if you are worried that you're pregnant, go take a test.
I doubt you are, but that's my opinion.

NEXT TIME USE CONDOMS TOO.

well it sounds like you kinda are about this topic. if someones pregnant or thinks there pregnant it doenst make sense to take birth control till they figure it out.why would you do that to your baby.

you said you couldnt have an "unborn baby" becaus your mom would kill you. so i took it as if you are you would kill it.

ok well your the one who thinks your pregnant you said you were going to take another test to be sure.

so if you think your pregnant and your not sure then DONT TAKE BIRTH CONTROL until you figure it out!

yes if you dont take birth control and you decied to have unprotected sex you would run the risk of getting pregnant but its not like you cant go a week without having sex or if you do use a condom!

so you could either use bc and harm your unborn baby (if you are pregnant, becuase you still have a feeling you are) or you could go a week without having sex or use a condom.

actually when i was your ge my period was like that,,,,brown when i start and brown when i ended....its just old blood...i wouldnt worry about it..but if its not that much blood you shouldnt use tampons....havent you heard of toxic shock syndrome?? Its not saafe to use tampons unless your bleeding enough to use them and it doesnt sound like your bleeding enough....its more common is younger teens as well so please be careful when using them!! And its a good thing your using b.c but i was also on b.c and wasent using condoms and guess what...i at your age..got pregnant....went through the whole tenth grade with a big belly and everything....if you dont want a kid use protection and please take this seriouse...you cant even tell you mom about it..how would yopu be able to tell her your pregnant!! Girls your age have no ideahow hard it is to have babies and to have to grow up sooner...you seem like a mature younge girl and you know your conciquences which is why your on b.c but you need to be extra protected....i dont think your pregnant from what i read...but good luck and if you still dont come on in about a week go to your doc..and please dont take what i have said as an offence...i just want you to understand that it can happen soo quick and you may not even relize it!! Keep us posted! Good luck girlie!!

ok today when i woke up i bleed maybe a quarter size drop and i put a tampon in and i took it out 4hrs later and i had nothing just light brown sort of like when your ending your period. and so i put another tampon in and then went ice skating for about 5hrs and i  took the tampon out and it was sort of almost halfway full with brown and red blood so is this normal or should i still get it checked?

af=aunt flow....your period lol....but it's ok....somewhere on the right side of your screen, you'll see a link for the acronyms.....alot of them i'd never even heard of till i got on here!

hum.....as much as i know i probably shouldnt say this, i can't think of anything you could tell her to have her help you get it, as most people know what it is now!

ok i have one question what is af? and oh my god i cant tell my mom because she would think i am pregant like she doesnt listen to me and idk she just over exagerates, but yeah ill take another test if i still dont get my period, i havent gotten it yet, but i guess ill keep waiting, if i dont get it ill try talking to her, and ask, ill keep posting if anything happens or write back =]

Thanks for commenting

give yourself a few more days....i know waiting is a PITA, but you're stressing it could be delaying af.....if you still get a negative in 3 days, and your af hasn't started, you need to discuss this withyour mother/father and have them arrange for an appt with an ob.....there is the possibility that you're not pregnant, and your bc is just throwing you for a loop....the b/c pill is not for all women, and as young as you are, you may want to switch to something like orthotricyclen, or the patch.....i know i was only able to take the pill for 6 months b4 it made me sick and i always thought i was pregnnat....i switched pills from a generic to ortho, and was fine.....

id have to say at 15 maybe you should consider waiting for sex, i know i know another grown up giving me the wait story.  see how scared you are though? what if you were pg? is that something that you could handle?  people can and do fall pg every year because their birth control failed them. good luck!

well it seems like very common birth control symptoms.  if you do not get your period in 4 days, then you can take a test.  But i can not stress the importance of assuring even though you are on birth control, that you practice safe sex as well.
