Does anyone know someone who got preg
within 2 months of stopping birth control
pills??? My fiance and I are trying to
get preg asap. I have been off bc for one
cycle now and still have not gotten my af.
The 1st weekend of feb I think I was
ovualting. I used the test strips and the
line almost matched the other. So im not
sure if I really did ovulate or not. This
past week was when I was due to start my
af and sis not. But my check did get
really sore, I got tired alot, I started
cramping alot. I have taken a few hpt and
they were all neg. My questions are
these:
could I be preg and its just not showing
up for some reason?
If not preg could I still ovulate even
though I did not have my af this month??
We want to try and concieve in the next
few months if possible. Is there anything
that I could do to help the process along.
Please give me any advise you can. Thank
you in advance.

I have not known anyone really just heard
of people that conceived within 2 months.
Most people I know took them about 3
months or more. When I first came of bc
my period was 5 days late and I took 2
tests and then it came. It has been 6
months now and we are still ttc. Go to
your doctors if you are worried and get a
blood test done. People say that if
doesnt matter what birht control you are
on. Just relax and have fun. Try not
to make it a chore as my husband thought
it was. That made me upset until we
talked.

Thanks for your replies. I had my last af
on jan 24th I stopped taking my pills
after that. I still have not had my af
yet. Is it possible to miss your first af
coming off bc and still ovulate the 2nd
month????

Hi all,
i had stopped taking birth control when I
got pregnant, I was off them for like 4
months but I lost the pregnancy. To be
honest with all of you I want to get
pregnant but i'm not going to tell my
husband b/c he'll stress about it and if
he stresses I stress worse

Beccaliz,
so he'll stress about it because he'll
make it into a chore? Or?
Good gracious... I need to pull myself
together and get off the darn pill!! Lol
want a little bundle of joy myself. I
hope my bf won't stress about it! :-o

Hi there! Do not stress, it will not
help! Relax, enjoy, because when that
bundle of joy comes and the hormones are
jumping around and you feel like a cow and
your feet hurt and are swollen and you are
unable to be comfortable and you cannot
see your feet, their will not be no more
real sleep wishing you the best and it
will happen, we are all different.

Hey Blue Posted: 08-29-05 19:22pm
He'll just worry about me. I lost the
pregnancy and he'll worry about my
emotions. He's told me he'd be thrilled
if I got pregnant soon. We are going to
college right now, to be honest, i'm kinda
looking forward to being pregnant while in
classes. I want that attention damn it.
But that's not the reason that'll just be
a cool side effect. I'm kinda worried
about another miscarriage, i'm scared to
death of having a still born, and i'm not
all that sure I can get pregnant. When
we tried a while ago we both drank alot so
I think that's why I didn't get pregnant.
But low fertility runs in my family.

Well I can understand that tho.
Pregnancies can get tough on the guys
aswell.
You got me curious tho, of course you can
be in college while being pregnant, but
what will happen when the baby is born?
And I understand that you don't wanna
stress out your boyfriend and stress out
yourself, but you are gonna tell him when
you are pregnant right? Lol
i think youre right that the drinking may
have had something to do with the low
fertility, but if you aren't drinking now
why not just give it a shot? There is
always a risk of miscarriages and
stillborns. But then again, you won't
have a kid if you don't take the chance,
right? :)
i wish you both the best of luck - and not
too much stress! :d

Hey girls,
as for the question about college:
my origional plan was to tke 18 units/
semester and when the baby is born my mom
would watch the baby for my last semester,
I know she'd be happy to watch him/her.
Well, if i'm a sick pregnant lady I will
drop down to 16 or 12 units/semester and
then 18 units for my last semester.
Either way I will need to have my baby
taken care of by a family member at one
point or another. I'm personally not
into day care, my mom didn't believe in it
so she raised me never to use day care...
I had some bad things happen to me
actually (don't worry, nothing
horrendous), so I know my mom will do it.
And yes i'm going to tell my hubby when
the test comes back positive and i'll tell
my best friend (and you guys), but I don't
think I want to put our family through
another miscarriage. They didn't do to
well for the first one, his mom has 4 kids
and didn't have any complications and my
mom had a lot of problems w/ fertility so
my miscarriage brought back a lot of hurt
feelings I don't think she ever faced.
My miscarriage was at 9 weeks, the baby
had no heart beat. So I want to wait
until I hear a heart beat and see some
movement on that ultrasound before we say
anything.

Its good beccaliz! You sound very
confident in this, so i'm sure you will
make it all out just fine.
About those units, I have no idea lol!
I'm from denmark we don't have the same
school system you guys do! ;)
i think i'd be a nice surprise for your
family. "hey listen everyone i'm 12 weeks
pregnant!" they'd be out of their mind
with happiness! :d
of course you could also rent of those
little machines that you can stick to your
belly (have no idea what the name, all I
remember is mom had one with my youngest
sister) - stick to your belly and call
for your husband to listen to the most
beautiful sound ever. Lol! :d
good luck with it all! :)

Yeah! Posted: 09-02-05 12:45pm
I'm excited and I finally broke down and
told my hubby! He said we can go on
natural family planning and start really
trying in december. He was upset for a
couple of minutes b/c i'd kept something
from him, but forgave me, he's so awsome
