Birth Control, Pregnancy and Stomach Flu

**jenavieves** · 06-10-2011 04:36 PM

On and off for the last 3 weeks everyone in the house has had the stomach flu. I have had it at least once a week ( We have 4 kids and I take Humira). The first 2 weeks I was vomiting and had diarrhea for about 3 days. The 3rd week it only lasted for 1 day but was the 1st day of my 2nd week in the pack. The 1st week of the stomach flu was the last week of the pack. Week 2 was the 1st week of the pack and so forth. I hope that makes since... My husbend and I had unprotected sex twice during that time and we never even thought twice about it. Now I am worried that I might be preg. What are the chances?

Have you missed your period?

If your period is at least a week late, then go ahead and take a home pregnancy test.

It could be possible that your protection has been lowered during this time with constant vomiting and diarrhea... but doesn't necessarily mean you're now pregnant.

Like I said, wait til you miss your period, then take a pregnancy test, and don't think too much about it in the meantime.

No, I should start in 2 weeks. Just freaking out... We have 4 kids they are 11yr, 8yr, 4yr, and 2yr. The last thing we need right now is another one on the way.

Well it is 10days until my last pill and 13 day until I should start. I started spotting yesterday. Is it break though bleeding? Since I am bleeding now could I be pregnant?
