Birth Control, Pregnancy and Stomach Flu
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.
