Just this January 2, 2o14 my partner and i were having sex contact but I worried a lot if I'll get pregnant since january 1 is the sched of injecting some DMPA but i take the next day which is on last january 3, 2014. could i be pregnant? i had a 9 months old baby girl that's why I would like to be protected. I was suspecting because my abdomen was cramping, and my tummy's like something's moving and can feel somewhat like a "heartbeat" and then something kicking my tummy also looks bigger. pls. help me.... I need your info's. thank you....

Since you have been taking Dimpa inj. Chances of your getting pregnant are very remote.If you are still in doubt you could get a pregnancy test done.besides certain symptoms like bloating and cramping can be due 2 injection itself
