Pregnancy ..birth control,etc

Nurses Stress 101

Published

I have been taking birth control pills for 3+ years. I have a question about birth control and pregnancy.

What happens if you were pregnant and continued to take your birth control?

I have been working night shift for about 5-6 months and I have noticed that my belly looks "more bloated" and fuller. Now either I am getting fat or pregnant. I have not missed any periods. I bought a pregnancy test today but to scared to use it..b/c I am concerned that I might be. Also, I have been having mood swings (more than usual..hehe). It is like one minute I get sorta depressed.the next minute I am on top of the world. I can't even explain it. One of my husband's friends even said I looked pregnant to him.

So, again what happens if you are pregnant and continued to take your birth control?

Also, do these signs sound like pregnancy?
