does anyone know if your cervix is normally hard and opened during ovulation?? That would be nice to know, since mine was. Thanks!


cervix is normally soft, swollen, and closed if the fertilisation succeded.



so, you are saying that if the sperm reached the egg and the women is pregnant then the cervix becomes soft, swollen, and closed right? Just want to get this straight:) thanks for posting this useful info!

I think it shuts tight so that nothing can reach or harm the baby.

wish I could help you but I don't know too much about bc. I do however know people like you who became pregnant while on birth control. I would say that it is a possibility but then again I think that maybe you're just stressing out....


what bothers me, is not knowing if my body just doesn't "take to the pill" or if I was just that 1 in 100 (or whatever it is) that just happend to get pregnant when I got pregnant on the pill before. So frustrating! I guess I will just have to see what happens closer to the end of the month.


i got preggers on the pill after taking it for 3 years and pregnant on the patch after taking it a year and a half


did you ask your doctor what the problem was after getting pregnant the second time? Weren't you curious to know why you just happend to be in that small precent of women who become pregnant on birth control twice?? If I am pregnant (god help me if I am) then I am diff going to have to get some answers as to why I became pregnant twicce while taking birth control.

I wasn't trying to attack you or anything and i'm sorry if I came across like that....I know I said I hate when people do that or I hate people that do it, and like you said..It's just .M.Y opinion.

i understand where you are coming from and I apologize if I sounded rude or hateful in my response to you. I'v never tried to get pregnant so I guess I just don't know what it feels like to get your hopes up and then have them shot down. My heart goes out to the people who try for years (even months) to get pregnant with no luck:( I truly wish that it was just as easy as closing your eyes and saying "i want to be pregnant" and it happen or as easy as saying "i don't want to be pregnant" and it not happen! Wouldn't that be great! Sometime though, sadly, we don't get to choose. Anyways, I just wanted to get back to you on this:)

if pregnancy/menstruation or other hormonal alterations occur its normally swollen and soft. Its shut during pregnancy to prevent any infection that might enter the womb

Wow!! I can't beleive that there are all these women here who are ttc and no one charts their cervical position or cm??? I also started charting my temp first thing in the morning.

Here's some links for those interested in knowing what different cervical positions and cm means so you'll know when you are ovulating or possibly preggo.

This link works as is:
http://w ww.Webwomb.Com/cervical_position_frame_pag e.Htm

these two will need to be copied and pasted into the address bar. Once there...Just change the 'h' in html to lower case for both.

i'm not mad, I was just saying. There are so many opinions and soo many different personalities here that at some point people aren't going to agree 100 percent. Ya know? All we can do is keep it civilized and not caddy. Which we're doing a good job of doing if you don't mind me saying!! Lol...It's all good girl...

Sunflower_pie, I noticed you said you got prego on the pill and then the patch. I was wondering, did you have early periods or anything on the pill before finding out you were pregnant? I've been on the pill (ortho tri-cyclen lo) since last june and my last two periods came early - I still had 2 to 3 hormonal pills to take when I got it. Not sure if this is normal or an indication that the pill might not be strong enough for me. I still have two hormonal pills left to take in my pack, so it's way too early to test... Sorry this is long and rambling! I'm a "perfect pill user," not on antibiotics, and not overweight. What pill were you on and did you have anthing like an early period in the months preceding your pregnancy?

actually I didn't notice a change in my cycle until I was 3 months pregnant, I took the pill the whole time, not knowing I was pregnant. So no there wasn't a change/early cycles. See I put my husband on the "pill" too because we didnt' really want kids but welcomed them if we got preggers. We love to travel. But anyway he was better at reminding me to take it than I was. He would bring it to me before he got in the shower everymorning. He made a little shelf on our vanaty mirror to slide the case on so you couldn't forget it while brushing your teeth.

So no, there was no change.

Thanks for replying. My boyfriend is freaking out about the possibility of me being pregnant, but it's a few days too early to test. However, by this time last month and the month before I already had my period... I'm nervous because we had sex a lot this month and one night after taking my pill I threw up in the middle of the night and am not sure if I had digested it fully... Ahh, guess we'll see. Other than that, i've just been feeling very dizzy lately.

Hello there! No one here can tell you if you are or are not pregnant, we are not drs. Your body goes through changes in your lifetime. Most pregnancy's are different. Heck, I pee alot and I am not pregnant and have pretty much always have and I do not have a uti and I do my exercises. You can get pregnant on the pill or practically any b/c device and I am definitely not saying not to use them. I got pregnant on the pill and the condom once, figure that one out, no, it is just that some females are more fertile than others. Their was a certain time in my life where I really wanted to get pregnant, we tried and tried and then quit trying and then I ended up pregnant.
Good luck to those that are not preg., are preg., and are trying to be preg.
It is still good to have a place to come here and talk about it.

I know no one can diagnose things, of course. I wasn't looking for a diagnosis, either - I was just curious as to whether or not other women on here have ever experienced what I am currently.

Typing messages is so hard isn't it? You can never truly tell how someone meant something. The tone doesn't always come through...
