And Other Added Stress

Jason's job is precarious. They've lost a number of good accounts, laid off a bunch of people. Jason's job isnt necessarily subject to layoff.. he's been there a long time....but what if they go under? What if they sell out? We're not sure what we would do as we barely manage now and a job loss.. we'd likely lose the house.

I don't care that much about the house. I don't like it, I don't think we were ready. But if our credit gets mangled, we're screwed to rent as well. Sure, we could stay with my Mom, all four of us in one room, chillin... but I'd rather not.

Oh and.. back last month, when the shit with the car happened, I forgot to take my BC pill for four days that week. I take it for regularity and help with PMS symptoms, obviously Jason is snipped so no pregnancy worries.

SO after that week I decided to just wait until I got my period and start again. But.. I never got it..

As it stands now I am 3 weeks late. I was slightly freaking. I told Jason and said I wanted to get a pregnancy test. He's like "Why, you can't be pregnant??""

"Yes I can, it's happened..that stuff grows back sometimes."

"Well, how would I know if that happened??"

"..... when I got pregnant....."

*crickets*

So, against his better judgement (Thats $10 we can spend better elsewhere!!!!).. I got a pregnancy test. My idea??

It will tell me one way or the other. 3 weeks late, no way to be wrong... it either say NOT PREGNANT and I can relax or it says PREGNANT and we can start getting ready.

Thank God.. it was a big fat NOT PREGNANT.

So after that (crying tears of relief).. I called my Gynecologist. Explained the situation.. I know I am not pregnant, but I messed up with BC pills and would like to know what I can do to get back on track.

"Oh, hey, you are due for your annual"

"Shit.. I mean yeah.. ok.. let's schedule that"

So I will be going next Tuesday for my exam and to discuss this. If I have not yet started they can possibly give me something to get me going.

Anyone see why my stress levels are through the roof???

It's happened to me a few times over the years. Usually they'll give you in an office pregnancy test (because they never believe you) and then a pill to restart your cycle.

Wait, I thought you told us you had your tubes tied when Heather was born.
