My husband and I were married on dec 4 04.
We decided to stop my depo shot in april
of 04 so that it wouldn't take us as long
to get pregnant.
Here it is oct. 05 and still nothing.
I am new to this site and might of posted
this twice.... Sorry, but if there is
anyone out there to help please respond.

Sometimes, women can get pregnant right
when they quit birth control. Others
take a lot longer. I've heard that it
can take about a year before the body can
rid the birth control completely from your
body and straighten itself out.
It took me 2 years before I conceived my
second child (after quitting birth control
pills) - so, just relax, don't think about
it too much and it will come naturally.
Good luck! :-)

hi,
yes jennifer is correct it is quite common
for birth control to cause delays in
conception. Depoprovera can delay the
resumption of fertility, especially in
women over 35 and so it can take upto 18
months to conceive after using this form
of contraception.
