If anyone out there has any ideas,pls help. I'm driving myself crazy! I was on the pill until August 17. AF paid a visit August 21. All days of ovulation Sep.2-6, we TTC. AF was supposed to return September 18. Today, Sep.23, still no AF. BB are EXTREAMLY sore to the point wear I can't go without a bra. I am sick every morning after I take my vitamins,I feel bloated and have mild cramping. I have heard that it takes at least 2 months after getting off of the pill to be fertile again. Can the symptoms be in my head? Do you think I want to be pg too bad? Anybody ever get pg so soon off of the pill? Too eary to do HPT? Help!!!!

Ithink everyone is different. I got pregnant just by missing a pill. Ithink you should take an hpt. Do you have one around? Let us know

I asked my doctor about fertility and pills and he said the pills are out of your system the day after you stop taking them. However, the effects may take up to one month to wear off. So, even if you miss one pill, you could have a chance of becoming pregnant!

Hello all!!!!!! Thanks Jackie for encouraging me to take the test and the Clearblue says Yes!!!! I am PG!!!! I have never been so nervous in my life. I am going to my GYN to get the blood test so pray for me. I will let you guys know if I will be heading to the other club or not.
