Question

Pregnant immediately after stopping birth control

I took my last active pill on March 3rd. Had my withdrawl bleeding from March 6th until March 10th. The 10th suppose to be the first day I started a new pack, but I obviously didn't. Haha
I started using OPKs on March 10th. Got a positive on March 24th. Counted March 25th as O-day. As of today, I'm roughly 5dpo. Trying not to get my hopes up.. But I want other people's stories! I've read that many people conceived the first month off the pill- even before a real period. I'm hoping to be that lucky!
But preparing to expect to wait a while until getting pregnant. When did you get your BFP after stopping the pill?! I want to hear all stories :)

I stopped BC last Nov and am still ttc. Everyone is different but my cycles were regular immediately stopping them. Hope we get some good news soon!

I stopped my pill on 11/26/15 and my cycles regulated immediately to 31 days with ovulation on CD17-19. Still not pregnant. Every woman is different. I didn't think it would take this long to get pregnant because I had an accidental pregnancy against SEVERAL odds (I was sporadically taking birth control pills, we only had sex ONCE [because we weren't exactly dating but weren't seeing anyone else either], I was on top AND he pulled out right before "the big finish"), but sadly it ended in miscarriage. We had sex 15 days after the start of my period. Just happened to catch it. Now, my husband and I go at it like crazy around the time of my O because we use OPKs to pinpoint, and we're still not pregnant. It just takes time and patience, we're finding. Good luck and baby dust, friend!
