My doctors always said to use other forms of birth control for the first 3 months after going off the pill to allow your hormones to get back to normal and avoid harm to the baby.
I got pregnant on the pill. I ovulate twice every month and was put on one of those pills that changed the amount of hormone (the tri-whatever pills) throughout the cycle. It's not designed for two per month. Unfortunately, I miscarried that time.
My daughter is a condom and foam child. SURPRISE, but very wanted and very loved!
My son was just a happy surprise... the one and only time I had unprotected relations! I was planning on trying to have another one in 6 months.. so he was just a bit earlier than expected.
Some are just more fertile than others.
I am on depo now to stop my periods completely because I'm anemic from other medical conditions and the doc feels I'd be a mess if I was having periods. I don't care if it wrecks my reproductive system because I'm not having any more kids. My primary care doc won't approve me having my tubes tied either. She says "You know how many women turn 40, get remarried and want a baby with their new husband?". Well, I tell you, I wouldn't be one of those! I won't remarry, I don't want more kids and the other medications I'm on are seriously dangerous to embryos so it's out of the question. She still refuses though.
