Q: Getting Pregnant
asked by: rorink on November 30th, 2005

After being on the pill for 17 years after my first child, I want to get pregnant again. Can I get pregnant right away or do I need to be off of the pill for a while?

The pill will only stay in your system and protect you for a week after, then they say that its very easy to get pregnant right after you come off birth control. It shouldnt take too long.
Good luck

It normally takes 2-3 cycles for ovulation to return. You may still get your period, but you might not ovulate.
Good luck!

Hmmmm???!?!
First of all, how come so many women I know, get knocked up if they forget to take a pill....And then people say it takes 2-3 mths before you can ovulate to get pregnant when you stop taking the pill?!?!? How can that be??!?!

Also, as far as your son, he is 12 yo and has a 21 & 22y.O.??? I don't get it, but good luck anyways!!
