I am 24 and have been on BC for the past 13 months. This would be the first month that I have stopped taking them. I visited my boyfriend a couple weeks ago and was excited to see him that it didn't even occur to me that I might be ovulating during the time I would be with him. I started spotting last week on the 17th, lasting about 3 or 4 days. I thought it was just my period coming early. That was the point when I checked my dates. My last period started 11/28th. Regular cycle indicates that I ovulated the 12th which was the day that I made the trip and seen him. Less than a week later I started spotting. We are not trying to conceive, but we would both be happy to find out that we would be having a baby. My period is due this friday (26th) and I am pretty regular. Around the time I started spotting I also started cramping. The spotting has stopped now, but the cramping still persists. Since then I have had both clear and creamy CM, at times the first in great abundance. I've also experienced persistent headaches, constipation, bloating, frequent urination, lower back pain, some nausea at night, and faintness on one occasion. I usually have no pms symptoms except for craving chocolate. I have on more than one occasion thought I was pregnant, all with negative HPTs and I don't want to get my hopes up if this is just my body playing tricks on me. With all that said, what are the chances that I really am pregnant this time?

Thank you for your time!

P.S. I hate playing the waiting game... =(
