Hello ladies!
Apologies if this has already been asked, but I haven't been on here for a few days.
I am due a visit from AF between Xmas and New Year, but obviously there is much festive spirit around this time of year and alcohol is always on the cards! I have quite a big night out planned on Xmas eve, should I do a pregnancy test in the morning to check that I am not preggers and so don't run the risk of harming a little bean? It is a bit of a long shot as this is my first month off the pill.
Any opinions would be greatly appreciated! x x x
:\?

Hi ruthie,

Do you know how many dpo roughly you'll be on Xmas eve?, if it's not many then the likilyhood of a + is minimal even if you are pregnant. If you're 10 dpo+ I'd test, but remember not to get downheartend if it's a BFN as it may be too early.

Hi! I should be about 12 dpo, but that will be guess work as I am first month off the pill, but been having ovulation-type pains, so here's hoping my body is getting itself sorted out after so long on the pill.
I blame hubby, he was all for me coming off the pill and "seeing what happens", but now I have become really aware of all my unhealthy habits!

well, even at 12dpo a BFN can easily be false so I think the safest thing you can do is to only have very little alcohol.

I say test, if only for your own peace of mind, but like Shuck says take it easy on the alcohol, just in case. Good luck xx
