Hello, I’m writing to give reassurance for anyone who is in the same boat as me! I’ve been lurking here because I was anxious. I lost my login for my account (@medengconfused-low3097) but as you can see my posts have been absolutely crazy. Basically I’ve been thinking that I’ve been pregnant since October 2021 even though I’ve had more than 20 negative urine tests. Because I’m still young and under my parents insurance I couldn’t do a blood test or ultrasound, but when I visited the hospital last month for another reason they ran a pregnancy test (!!) and it was negative. Spent so much money for nothing!!
But I still was worried that I was pregnant. Because of all those stories about cryptic pregnancy on TikTok. I never told anyone about my crazy anxiety episode, even my boyfriend. Even worse, my period in October was only 2 days long and light, November I had 2 periods (because I took plan b, but I heard bleeding due to plan b didn’t cancel out pregnant so I was still freaking out.) December I had a period that was late, January I also had period but I kept having indigestion this whole time, including burping all the time and weird stomach pain. February my period was lighter than normal.. and my stomach was getting bigger. Well no wonder why it was getting bigger. Before this panic, I worked out almost every day, didn’t eat junk food. Since this panic, I’ve been bedridden, not going to class, just sleeping all day and not keeping track of my eating habits. It got so bad though to the point I got panic attacks when I looked at my bloated stomach.
March was weird because I had a period that was on time (but light), and I started birth control pills for the first time. I took it for 2 days and it made me feel absolutely terrible.. I even threw up, which is a very rare occurrence for me. I never vomit even when I’m sick!!!! So of course I believe I’m pregnant. And then a few days after my period ended, my period started again!
In conclusion I think every irregularity was due to change in hormones from plan b, birth control and stress. Since it was my first time in October, I was worried I didn’t use the condom properly. I also have strict parents who would absolutely disown me if I got pregnant. I think all these fears combined caused my spiral. I still observe my stomach every day and been watching if it’s growing, but I realized it only gets big when I eat a lot and flattens back down on an empty stomach. Not to mention that I would always suck in a bit when I look in the mirror before this scare, but since this scare I’ve been letting my stomach hang all the way. It makes a big difference. Well now that I would be more than 8 months pregnant if I actually had a cr*ptic pregnancy, I think I can finally believe that I’m not pregnant. It’s been a crazy ride, I was looking up abortion appointments and was trying to save money in case I get an abortion. Even went to planned parenthood to get free urine tests, they are super friendly you guys should check them out.
Anyways thanks for reading this post and I hope that anyone who’s suffering from this kind of pregnancy anxiety can stay strong. It will be over soon for sure!
