birth control

[newmommy1217]

hey everyone,
i have a question i just switched from the depo shot to the pill. i received the shot the day after i had my daughter april 1 2013, and three months later i switched to the pill. i took the pill on a tuesday three or four days before i had too. so that i wouldnt have a break in birth control. im on the placebo part of the pack i actually have four days left and haven't received my period. meaning i have four days til i take a new pack. im a tuesday start, if that makes sense. im confused because i took the pill within the hour everyday of 5'oclock. i didn't take any antibiotics! so why havent i gotten my period. should i take a pregnancy test?
please help, i really cant afford to have another baby.

When I took depo it took me 1 year to get my period after I stopped.

I actually got pregnant while switching birth controls! I'm 10 weeks now! I went from pill to shot and got pregnant within that time frame which was a matter of weeks

I've never used the Pill so I could be wrong, but I was always told to use backup BC (condoms) for 7 days after switching BC. I would take a test to be safe, but I don't think you need to panic.

Yeah my friend got pregnant while switching. She was on both birthcontrols for like a week

They say it takes three months to start working properly.

I known that when you first start taking birth control you have to take it for a bit (not sure how long) before it actually starts working. I guess it needs to build up in you're system.. not sure if it would apply to you since you switched.. but I would def take a pregnancy test.
