Emergency Contraception

[pixie_woo]

Took the morning after pill last monday and still no period. Hubby and I have discussed the issue and decided that if I am pregnant we will continue with the pregnancy. Now I've settled on the idea I've realised that I'm quite looking forward to it!
My question is that I could I have caused any harm to the embryo by taking all those hormones?

firstly you need to find out if you are pregnant. It is unknown whether it would effect a pregnancy should the pill fail.
The failure rate is about 10%.

My sister took the morning after pill also and just recently had a healthy baby boy,so try not to worry.

In case anyone is still looking at this thread (I seriously doubt it). I have taken a test and and was positive. There is a baby-woo on the way!

Awwww ~ congratulations (if you are happy with the news..LOL).

I have known four women take the morning after pill and have it fail..another 5 or 6 take it and it worked (including me..phew!).

I think it only works by luck and not by judgement ;o)

Dont forget just to mention it to your midwife at your booking in appointment.
Heres to a trouble free pregnancy for you xx
