Okaay, this is going to sound slightly paranoid but bear with me please...
I've been worrying that i'm pregnant for a several weeks now. I think it's partly to do with a magazine article i read in Glamour magazine..but basically i'm on the pill (microgynon 30) and i havent missed one or anything, nor have i missed a period. Which you might think, is fine. Not pregnant, duhhh.
But i've been feeling sick and dizzy in the mornings, been having mood swings and have put on weight. The main point of worry for me is that i can feel a constant heartbeat in down in my belly, far lower than where my own heart should be. I'm very worried this is a baby.
I know i'm on contraception and have been taking it as i should but, it is possible to get pregnant on the pill right? Its not 100% effective. The article in the magazine i read was of a woman who was on the pill and kept having periods, but was nonetheless pregnant without knowing it. She didnt develop a bump because the baby was in a strange position. Admittedly she thought that antibitotics she had taken had interefered with the pill to make her pregnant. This isnt the case with me as i havent taken anything that could interfere with the pill. But i cant help thinking i am pregnant.
What else could this heartbeat feeling be? Is it just my heart i'm feeling but strangley lower down?
I have done four home pregnancy tests which were all negative. But perhaps if i'm still having periods, my body hasnt realised im pregnant?
I have a doctors appointment on monday to get more pills, so i'm going to try and tell him these worries aswell, without sounding too crazy. I'm just worried he wont take me seriously....
Gahhh sorry to sound so insanely stupid, but i'm really worried.
Thanks for reading.

the symptoms could be many other things....and the chances of getting pregnant while on the pill and using it correctly is 1%
I didn't know you couldnt feel a baby's heartbeat, so that's put my mind at rest a bit.
Cheers guys x
To make sure, just do a test.
As for the weight loss and some dizzy spells, that could be anything. Microgynon 30 has a habit of making you put on weight, and if you've been on it a while it can make you feel strange. I know my lass came back off microgynon 30 because she was starting to feel odd on it, and had put on weight because of it.
If she's done 4 tests then the fifth is hardly going to make a difference.
Stop following me around with the moronic comments, do you fancy my hot body or something?
Quite.
It might put her mind to rest, though, might it not?
A lot of women put weight on on the pill so don't worry about that. It doesn't sound like you're pregnant. Do have a chat with your doctor about your worries though if it'll give you peace of mind.
Its hard to feel a babies heart beat while its still inside ya apparently! i wudnt know...!
Im on that pill. Think that sumtimes people get sick or dizzy randomly with it. Just see your doc/nurse to change to different type!
Those symptoms could all be linked to worrying. aniexty/stress/worry can make you feel your heart beat more obviously.
hope its nothing too serious.
