Trying to get pregnant after brith control

Trying to get pregnant after brith control

Hi all I am new to this site. Well I have been TTC for 4 months now and I can't get pregnant. I was on birth control for 3 years. Do you think I can get pregnant again? If so can you tell me if I can or should I take some vitamins I am trying for baby number three Thanks

When i got pregnant with my first son, i went off the pill after being on it for almost 10 yrs and was concerned also that i would have some trouble trying to conceive but got pregnant with him on the 2nd or 3rd month. So there is definitely some hope...some ppl just take longer to conceive than others. I wish u the best! Take care.

I was on the pill for 11 years... stopped taking it in May and got pregnant in October.  (between May and October we used condoms for a few months since I had gotten a vaccination and was advised not to get pregnant right away)  The pill shouldnt affect your fertility.  Some people get pregnant right away after stopping and some people need a little longer.  dont get discouraged...!

Well, I would always start with the prenatal vitamins when trying....build up your system with all the nutrients you will need....I wouldn't discourage yet....it takes your body a while to get the normal flow of things again after having the chemicals in your body for so long.....better even that the time has gone by a bit...your body will be even better condition....just keep low on the caffeine too...I cut it out when trying...

I was on the pill for 17 years, it only took me 5 months and that is because we tried. You will be fine!
