Could I Be Pregnant?
Posted: 07-17-07 10:45am

I'm 19 and stopped taking the pill in late may/early june after being on it for 2 years. my last period was may 21 and didnt take the pill after that. we have used condoms every time exept once that we were not protected about 2 weeks ago. my breasts have grown and are sore, i feel fat, am emotional, am tired and sleepy. could i be pregnant?

well you did have unprotected sex, so yes. but as far as im concerned your breasts wouldn't have "grown" yet, but okay. take a test.

really my question is Is it possible to get pregnant so soon after coming off the pill (since i was on it for two years)? I know the only way i'll know is to take a test but i guess I'm just a little nervous. My boyfriend (23) wants a baby really bad but I'm kind of not so sure. The reason I came off the pill is because i had been on it for so long and I was afraid of the long term effects and because I was thinking it would take a while to get pg anyway.

thanks.

You can get pregnant right away - or it can take awhile. Everyone's experience is different. However, just for your future reference, there is no link between infertility and the use of birth control pills ~ meaning, you can take the pill for more than the 2 years you were on it and never have any difficulties getting pregnant.

Please be sure that YOU want a baby before getting pregnant. It is a big decision.

Good luck!

Yes, it is very possible to get pregnant that quickly. I was on the pill for 8 years. My husband and I decided to start trying to conceive and 2 weeks later, I was pregnant.
