FEMALES ONLY PLEASE!!~How Long Did It Take For You To Get Pregnant???

1,029 73 May 20, 2007 at 02:13 PM
Hi Ladies...~


Well based on the many female mothers in the lounge..,,I thought this would be a good question to ask.,,and see what worked for you ladies..


I have been on the birth-control pill for about 2 1/2 years and I am not sure how long it would take to get pregnant if i stopped.

I asked my Gyno-doctor and she told me just to stop. However, I thought about just stopping right before I get to my green pills and letting nature take its course.


So I guess my question is:

HOW LONG DID IT TAKE AFTER YOU STOPPED TAKING BIRTH-CONTROL TO GET PREGNANT?

thanks in advance,..ladies for your commentshug

From what I understand, it is possible to get PG immediatley after going off of BC pills. While that was not the case for me, I have friends that did.

My sister got pregnant about 2 years after quitting birth control pills and then had 3 boys in a range of about 4 years.

OP, why females only? Just say NO OT for no off topic posts. It takes a dude to get women pregnant and some of them can answer how long it took for their wife to get preggo.

Then again, you could have problems like some of us. I was on the pill so long, that after going off we had to do the whole fertility thing. Doesn't sound like that will apply to you, but it's all about YOUR body. And yours isn't necessarily like anyone else's, as much as the advertisers would like to tell you it is.

Good luck when you're ready!

I always got pregnant at the very first month of trying (or not trying.....I get pregnant even when I don't try and/or don't want to).

But every one is different. There are so many factors that come into play....

Took me 1 and 1/2 weeks to get the job done after she went off the pills. Don't stop until you're ready.

Iagree


But really, it differs with each woman. Just stop taking them when you are ready to start trying, and you never know when you may hit the jackpot Wink

Took my wife and I 18 months the first time. Second time around it took 1 try. Guess we just had to break the seal.
