No AF after stopping Depo Provera - could I still get pregnant?!

After some advice from more contraceptively clued-up ladies! Started on Depo Provera after having DS, which stops my AF's. Last jab ran out in December, but AF's have not yet returned (I gather this can happen with Depo?). Today, I have had some bleeding, which is not like the start of AF, but reminds me more of what doc told me was implantation bleeding, which I had with DS... if I were ovulating (not a clue!) around the last time DH and I got down to it, the timing would make it plausible that this could be implantation... Help! I have no idea if it's really possible, or if I'm just jumping to mad conclusions!

Its possable as you dont need an af to get pregnant but saying that it also took me 6 month to get my af after stoping depo. i know thats not helping much as I am in a similar position as I have had an implant out and have all the signs of pregnancy but its still to early to test, Which is driving me mad (more mad than when i was tring for 2 years with my ds) as i feel pregnant and will not believe the bfn I am getting as as I said its to earrly to tell the only thing that will convince me im not is my af.
Good luck I hope you get the answer you want and you dont go to mad while waiting for the answer

Thanks emj, it's just so weird how these things work, fell pg almost immediately after having implanon removed, but body seems to be taking ages to sort itself after depo! While not actively TTC as such, my lack of normal cycle has made us a bit blase about contraception, hence my current pickle! Blush. Guess I should leave it a week or so, then test and see what happens... It is crap though isn't it, you find yourself making a mental note at any twinge of boob pain, bloating, vague nausea...! Hope you get some good news soon too!
