No Red Tape

My period is now 2 days late and I am starting to panic. I am on the pill so am regular as clockwork. My heart is in my mouth. I'm going to do a test at lunchtime but WTF am I going to do if I'm up the pole? I don't want kids, we don't want kids. My life is only coming together, I don't want this. Sweet jebus what the fook will I do?

Don't see how either, had no sickness or diarrhoea or antibiotics so don't see how...

Well then you'll get an abortion.

You'll be fine tho. Plenty of reasons (like shock exercise/diet) why it could be late.

Atkins style diets cause period delays, which is kinda what u were on for a while?

Do they? Hopefully that's it. I was on that for 12 days.....

Don't know about abortion. Know I don't want kids but don't know about that.

Am after getting sick now, think it's just worry though as opposed to anything else. Roll on lunchtime and I'll know one way or the other and can start making decisions. Can't tell him, am too afraid he'll want it.

well when i had the scare in dec i felt queasy as well- sure you can talk your way into that!!

fingers crossed for u hun.

Thanks wonka

Goldi you've a lot going on at the minute... so it could be that. and the diet can easily knock it off course.

Do a test and see how you go. Even if you've done EVERYTHING right though the pill isn't 100% effective, we use condoms too - himself doesn't want kids.

theres no point in driving yourself demented, wait until you take a test and weigh up your options then!
don't panic like the girls said, diet can throw off your period especialy since you have made drastic changes.

That's a good idea pixie, let's just hope it's not shutting the door after the horse has bolted

I didn't think of the diet bit til wonka said it so just hope that's it fc. Fookin slowest morning ever am clock watching like a good thing just want to know. Can't deal with this stress.

well stress could be stopping your period too, wedding stress too?
can you make an excuse to go out now? for headache tablets or something?

Wish I could, am stuck til lunch. Only an hour and ten now anyway.

goldi, its probably the diet - I'd say your body is in shock at the huge turnaround in the last few weeks.

Thats a worrying statement a few months before you get married. Is he just going along with your decison not to have kids but secretly hoping you'll change your mind ... or that a contraception accident will happen ??

2days with all the dietary and exercises changes you have made is not completely unreasonable... also worse comes to worst bear in mind it might not stick.

But if you both deffo don't want kids the pill is a lame option. have you discussed more permanent options with your doc? injection, coil,implant etc?

More stream of consciousness and panic than anything AJ. He doesn't want them either. I'm just in a state of panic.

Have tried implant and injection lainey, neither suit me. He's getting the snip after we're hitched. How's the travels going?

I have every confidence that you'll be fine. Honestly. It's definitely the diet/exercise combo. The increase in protein in your diet coupled with the shock to your system of doing weights etc is to blame. Anyone that gets pregnant on teh pill is careless about taking it or has been sick/had diarrhoea etc.. keep us posted, feel sick for you myself

cmere did you have ur weigh in today?
