Getting Pregnant After Being On Birth Control For 7 Years

Hi there,
my husband and I are trying to get
pregnant. I have figured out when I
ovulate and we have sex every other day
from when my period ends to increase our
chances. This is the 4th month of being
off the pill. (tryphasil). Do you think
I could get pregnant this soon or will it
take a lot longer for it to get out of my
system?
Pls respond.
Thanks

I have heard that it takes about 3 months
for someone to get pregnant after they get
off the pill, but not in my case! I got
off the pill and had unprotected sex, then
fell pregnant w/in a month after getting
off of it! Everyone is different. It
helps though if your periods are regular

How did you know you were prgnant? Just
from having no period? Or did you have
symptoms>,,

Yea, I didnt have a period. I knew that
I had unprotected sex, and stupid stupid
me thought, "oh, I cant get pregnant, the
pill is probably still in my system"
haha...I learned the hard way. But I
felt like I was coming down with the
flu...And its almost like you just know
it, you just feel like you have never felt
before....

take a test..

wanting to because your afraid of what the
results are going to be? Thats kind of
what im going through.. Please dont yell

Hi dreaa, i'm in the same boat as you
hun. I've just come off the pill and
this is our first month ttc. I have 2
weeks to wait for af, but I know by this
time next week i'm going to be pulling my
hair out. I've often been told average
of falling is 3-6 months after coming off
bc, mum took 2 monhts where as my aunty
fell straight away....I guess it depends
on your body! Good luck!!!

I have to agree, you should really test.
Especially if it's from august!!! I dont
understand how you could have waited this
long, it would drive me nuts not
knowing.....
