Diliberatly stopped pill early, want to get pregnant

Diliberatly stopped pill early, want to get pregnant

My last period was May 23 - 30 ( Wed to Wed )  I started taking my new pack of pills ( Marvelon 28 ) on Sunday May 27 as usual.  I am supposed to keep taking them until  Sat June 16  but i deliberatley stopped on Monday June 4 even though i still had 2 weeks of pills left because we want to have a baby.  Had sex Mon June 4( fertile day ) had sex Tuesday June 5 ( very fertile day ) and Wednesday June 6 (ovulating day). Later on Wednesday afternoon when i wiped after the washroom, there was light pinkish red with a texture like jelly with it. Also have backaches and cramps.  Is this my period because i stopped the pill early, or a sign of pregnancy.  It's doesn't seem as my normal period because i don't need to wear any napkins etc.

Its very normal to spot when stopping the pill midcycle.

It could take a few cycles to get back to normal after being on the pill especially if you took it for a long time.  I would just keep a watch on things and talk to my doctor if I had any more concerns.

if you stopped taking the pill on 6/4 you would not be having a "fertile" day on 6/4 - the pill prevents you from ovulating so even if that was 2 weeks into your cycle, you would not be fertile on that day if the pill was doing it's job correctly.  You have to start counting from the time you went off the pill - and probably more accurately from your first cycle after you stopped the pill so your body has time to adjust and start a new cycle.  Good luck

According to a 28 day cycle, if your last period was on May 23.  Then June 4 , 5 is a fertile day according to my resources

It took me a few cycles to get back to normal this time around..I went 38 days w/ no period the first cycle off...Could be break through bleeding from stopping the pill...I think it would be too early for implantation bleeding, because that usually takes a week after conception. Good luck, hope it happens soon for you!

the chances of being pregnant from sex you had on the same day as you stopped taking your pill is pretty low. birth control pills stop ovulation so there would not been anything to fertilize.

stranger things have happened before, it's just not likely

The spotting/cramping is most likely from stopping the pill mid cycle.  Many doctors will advise to finish a b/c cycle and then if you want to get pregnant just don't start again.  This is just what I've heard.  Also, June 4 and 5 are probably fertile days for a 28 day cycle but you were taking birth control until the 4th, if I read that correctly, which means your cycle was altered and those might not have been fertile days for you.  Who knows, you could be pregnant now or getting ready to ovulate or getting ready for your period.  You may have to just wait this one out.  Let us know what happens.

you are correct that if you had AF on 5/23 your fertile days would be roughly 6/4 & 6/5 - had you not been on the pill until 6/4.  The pill prevents ovulation, therefore your body does not know you are supposed to ovulate and won't know to ovulate the day you miss your first pill.  Good luck, but I would be very suprised if the spotting was anything other than breakthrough bleeding from stopping the pill.

just an aside... be aware that becoming pregnant very soon after stopping the pill often causes twins
