Pregnant or not?
Hi
I stopped taking my pill on the last day of my period which was on the 5 August. For about a week now, I've been feeling very nauseas as soon as I see food or even just drinking coffee. I get very dizzy when standing up and have been extremely exhaused (tired) over this week. Also, my nipples are very sensitive to the touch.
Is it possible that I could be pregnant?
Also, I have bought a home pregnancy test but very nervous, as my hubby and I want to have a baby.

It would be too soon for you to be pregnant. These are probably just signs of your body adjusting to being off the Pill.
