  TMI... but period worry anyone?!

  sarahv75 Joined on 20-Dec-2009 Posts 372	Contact Sorry if it's TMI but i'm really panicking i'll be on my period when i get married in 6 weeks time! I thought I'd be ok but now it's not looking good at all. Is anyone else worried about it? I've just stopped breastfeeding so I'm considering going back on the pill so I can stop it happening!

He gave me some pills, and I didn't have to beg for them, and they held it off until I was back home. Why don't you try that? T x   Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Nutrition Facts For Foods

You might be best just to see what happens and if it does I guess its not the end of the world, wouldn't be ideal thats for sure but I suppose worse things could happen on your big day??

Ooh I don't know, but if it's the same pill I was on you could just take 2 packs back to back and not have a break. Would that not solve the problem?

  Contact I had so many problems with the pill and the contraceptive injection that I ended up coming off everything and h2b had the snip!!!! Sounds drastic but it was really driving a wede between us and that was the only answer. The doctors are quite quick to put people onto these things but half the time they don't actually suit people properly. What are you going to do? Has the doc suggested anything else?

  Contact *Tinkerbelle*: i have no idea when im due!! h2b is panicing and telling me to buy a test but its just wedding stress! I have the same problem!! I've only recently started my periods again and my old cycle was around 30 days, which means i should've started last weekend! I can't see how i can be pregnant again (hope not!!) as we've been very careful, so i'm putting it down to wedding stress too. Oooh didn't know about that 'magic pill'! Will get an appointment with the docs asap. Thanks for that!
