Well, with my ex hubby I had been on the
pill for 11 years. We decided to not
prevent pregnancy so I stopped the pill.
I was off the pill that whole year we were
married and never got pregnant. Due to
fighting all the time I told him I wasn't
happy, and next thing I know that weekend
he moved out and filed for divorce on
valentine's day.
Well then I had decided I would remain
single the rest of my life with a few
partners here and there to fill my needs.
I went back on the pill again in march. I
guess god had other plans for me. I will
be married again in october to a wonderful
man.
Since I turned 30 in august we discussed
children. I told him I am not getting any
younger. My fiance also decided he would
like a child, and said that I could quit
taking my pills whenever I was ready to.
I quit taking my pills in july. I should
have started them again july 16th, after
my period. The first day of my last
period was july 12. I am now pregnant,
due around april 23rd. From my
calculations, if I am like the average
woman, I must have ovulated and conceived
around july 26th. I was suprised that
before in my other marriage I went a year
with nothing, andthen here with my new
fiance it was instantly. We thought it
would take a while to happen.
I used a free on-line program to calculate
my most fertile days. We had sex every
night that week. One thing we did
differently is that when finished he
stayed inside me for as long as we could
stand it. Also, instead of getting up
right away to clean up like usual I would
lay in bed for a bit, usually on my side
to help keep everything in. I have also
read where it is good to prop your rear up
on a pillow to help keep everything in,
although we never did this.
Just keep trying, and hopefully it will
happen. Good luck!
