Hi, I had been on bc for about 8 months straight & was consistently on a 28 day cycle. I have occasionally forgotten a pill or even two along the way, but have always made up for it per my prescribed instructions. I wasn't due for my period til Tues. Dec. 30th, but as of Tues. Dec. 23rd I woke up & found blood when I went to the bathroom. I thought it was odd because I knew it wasn't due for another week. It seemed even more odd to me because I didn't feel anything & I usually have bad cramping all day the first & second day of my period. I felt nothing & the blood was brighter than it usually is. I bled somewhat consistently for a few days & then I was done. I've had nothing since. I've noticed I have to go to the bathroom a lot more than usual. I always seem to have that sensation, that tingling flutter when you feel like you really have to go to the bathroom. I know it's not a urinary tract infection because I do actually have to go to the restroom & it doesn't burn or anything. I've been getting headaches more regularly & I'm not usually one to suffer from frequent headaches. Other than that I'm just feeling extremely exhausted all the time. I just have been chalking it up to the fact that I just moved & have had a lot going on. I've had trouble falling asleep, but again, I was just thinking that was the new home & whatnot. I'm starting to wonder now... could this be more than merely a string of curious circ_mstances? Of course, trying to research possibilities online only leaves me thinking more & more this has to be pregnancy... but I haven't taken a home pregnancy test yet. I'm just curious if these symptoms I'm describing in any way shape or form indicate to anyone out there that I should be taking a test. Since my period was earliy, I'm not even sure how long I would need to wait to take it & have it be accurate. Please shed some light on the situation if you can. Thanks! :o)

Go ahead and test, you can probably get one from a dollar store and they are just as good. It can't hurt to test.
If I were you, I'd go to the "Signs of Pregnancy" forum, someone there may be able to help more.
