depending on your body, some people have to wait so long to get pregnant after depo:/ I got pregnant less than a month after being on it for 2 years !

Depo does take a while to get pregnant after taking it! I took it before both children and it took right at a year to conceive with both kiddos!

I got 2 rounds (so 6 months of bc) of the depo shot after I had my son and bf for a yr and made enough milk to put the Roberts dairy outta business. Im thinkin of trying something else this time though because we want 3 kids all together and I didnt like how long it took me to get preggo again no idea if it was from bfing or the shot (I didn't get my period back until I had weaned him for 2 weeks and then bled every week for 15 weeks went on pac of bc pills before I got preggo with #2 but have read the shot can make it difficult to get pregnant for 18 months or so)
