becoming pregnant right after coming off oral contraceptive

This is my first month without using oral contraceptives; my husband and I are using another form of birth control.
I would very much like to know what are the possible complications if I get pregnant during my first cycle off oral contraceptives.
I have read that it is advised to wait 2 or 3 months before becoming pregnant in order to improve gestational dating. Why is gestational dating so important?
Other than not being able to easily date a pregancy, are there other disadvantages to becoming pregnant so soon after coming off oral contraceptives?
Thank you.
