Reply Contact  Wow, this post has been around a while!  I went off my bc 4 years before I managed to get pregnant.  Note that we weren't "trying" until a year ago, but that means 3 years of no protection, no bc, and no pregnancy :(   We were actually starting to get worried!  haha

I went to the doctor the end of  May and got pregnant the last week of June. I was on BC for 15 years without a break. My doctor had me tracking my cycle and my dh was dead set on doing the deed every day from 12-16 during my cycle. It paid off for us.

  Re: After you got off birthcontrol, how long did it take? Reply Contact I was on BC for about 2 years but every pill, shot, patch, etc. they put me on made me gain to much weight (even though I was on an excercise routine and eating healthy) or they made me so sick I couldnt operate normally. I stopped taking them but never got pregers. I lived with my boyfriend for 5 years and nothing (he got tested and nothing is wrong with him) then we broke up and I met another guy (one night stand) got back together with my BF and boom ..... I was prego. I really believe it's really whenever God wants you to have kids.

  Re: After you got off birthcontrol, how long did it take? Reply Contact I've been on many different kinds of birth control (Depo shot, Ortho pill, Necon pill) since I was about 16. The last form of birth control I was on was the Necon pill for about a year (from early February 2007 to mid February 2008). I just stopped taking it one day in February and we didn't get pregnant until the beginning of August. So it took about 6 months.

First baby took 6 months to conceive, I started to worry but I just had to time it right, Second baby took 5 months to conceive. I have learnt that for me timing is everything. Don't stress about it? It will happen eventually but it isn't instant for everyone!

  Re: After you got off birthcontrol, how long did it take? Reply Contact It is really hard to say how it will be for you. When I got pregnant the first time I was on the pill for years and it only took me ONE month to get pregnant... but when we decided to have a second baby it took me 13 months to get pregnant (so frustrating) and I had a miscarriage... very sad... then I got pregnant the second month trying after the miscarriage! The most you try and think in getting pregnant, the harder it gets! Enjoy and don't think about it, I know is hard but trust me, the more relaxed you are, the faster you get!
