Hi there, I am in the same situation, but I've only been on the pill for 3 months not 2yrs. I had no bad side effects until this past month.

On the 3rd week, I realized I had forgotten to take 3 pills in a row. My dumb butt didn't think too much of it at the time. I had doubled up for the following three days and completed the month out.

But during that 3rd week I had really bad cramps and I had gotten really bloated the day after the 3 pills were missed. I thought it was just cuz my period was tryin to come early due to not taken them correctly.

Cramps only lasted a day or so. I stopped the active pill and usually I would get my period within a day. This time it was 5days late and when it did come I expected it to pick up a little more than it was but it didn't. (It was brownish-red on the pad, and when I wiped it was pink. Absolutely no clots at all-I always have clots on my period) Well that lasted for about 4 days.

I was suppose to start my next set of pills this past thursday(9th of July), but I didn't, due to the possibility that I am pregnant. The spotting has stopped pretty much but I still feel bloated like Im about to get my period.

Breasts are heavier, somewhat tender(not more than usual when I'm on my period though) migraines almost 24/7 for a week now, just purely exhausted the past week and a half, back has been killing me! lol

ohh and the weridest of all of these is 4 days after I was suppose to start my period, I had these werid cramps going on in my lower left abd. Me and my boyfriend were laying there and put our hands on it, and we could both feel a lot of moving going on. It didn't really hurt at all, just a very uncomfortable bloated feeling. That moving has subsided a lot since but not completely stopped.

I took a test this morning test was negative. How many days after finishing your active pill did it take for the pregnacy test to show up positive?(I know everyone is different)I don't even know what week I am in if I am pregnant. Ahhhhh anything you could tell me would be much appreciated. Including if my sypmtoms don't seem to be pregnancy symptoms. I am so scared of havin an ectopic pregnancy...so if you think my symptoms match that in your opinion, considering you've had 3 children already and on your 4th baby. Thank you so much for all your support! ;-)
