I plan on getting pregnant soon, but my maternity insurance won't go into effect until May 1st. Should I stop taking my birth control on May 2nd or wait until I'm through with it? I'm on NuvaRing.

Personally I'd probably wait until you would finish it for the month so you're sure about when you get your period.

After that you might have an irregular cycle or two, or more. It takes some women awhile to get back to a really consistent cycle and others go back right away.

Good luck! Don't stress if it doesn't happen the first month. :D

I agree--if you wait until you finish a ring cycle, you'll finish out one thing before you start the next.
