Thread: Just want to make sure...

Well to start out, I'm 19 years old, and I've been on birth control pills since April 2009. My boyfriend was coming out at the end of December to visit me for New Years. I saw that with the schedule my pills were on at the time I noticed that my period lined directly up with his visit. So with my pack of pills that I was on (November 9-December 7), I skipped week 3 pills to induce my period to come a week earlier (started on Thanksgiving). This was the only time I ever skipped pills the whole time I was taking them. I started a new pack on November 30th.

I had a surgery for a tooth implantation on December 3rd, and long story short, I was put on antibiotics for a week (December 3-December 10). I didn't miss any pills that whole pack, had a normal period for that cycle, then started my next pack on December 28th.

I lost my virginity to my boyfriend of one year (and still going ) on December 31st. We were both virgins and wore a condom (Trojan) each time we had intercourse. He didn't ejaculate at all. But when we tried again on January 4th, we wore a condom again (Durex) and he did ejaculate this time. He pulled out right after, and we checked to make sure the condom wasn't leaking and it wasn't.

After he went back home, I went under some stress because I wasn't employed at the time, and I had a couple canker sores (signs of stress I'm guessing). I started my period on time and had the normal cramps and everything that comes with it. But at first it was brownish (which I read was a sign of old blood), and last night when I came home from work, it was red again. But when I woke up this morning (after I had put on a new pad before I went to bed), there wasn't really any blood at all. I just check a little bit ago and there was a little more blood (still red).

So does all of this sound normal to any of you? Thanks for the help. [:

Thank you[: I'm glad I'm stressing out over nothing. I tried to make those two nights with my boyfriend as perfect and as safe as I could. Without getting pregnant of course.

I was just a little worried of the fact of how my period seemed different this time. And once I get into that type of mood, I get a whole bunch of thoughts in my head.

I'm gonna go take some medicine to get rid of the bloating and cramps, I hope. Thanks again.
