Q: Quitting Bcp Close to End of Pack... Chance of Preg?

I officially quit taking my pill two days ago. My husband and I were intimate the day before I went off it. I know I should finish the pack, but I couldn't stand taking it anymore, since we're talking about having a baby Smile

just wondering what the chances are of getting pregnant because I know sperm can live in there for awhile. Thanks for any replies Smile

It varies some women can get pregnant right away and some take time. The doctor normally tells you to wait for one complete cycle then start trying good luck
