Anyone pregnant straight away after stopping pill?

Hi everyone,

after some much needed MN advice - i stopped taking cerazette 4 weeks ago today after being on it for 8 years. I have no idea what my cycle was before as i was fairly young when started the pill to help with PMS symptoms.

For 10 days i have had sore boobs/ nipples, a 'full' sensation in my lower stomach, i havent really had any cramping - more just a sense its there if that makes sense? Ive been super tired, feeling sick, headaches the lot. Essentially every PMS/pregnancy symptom you can think of.
My CM has been ery inconsistent, varying from lotiony and white, to feeling 'damp' with no visable CM.

AF due today if i have a 28 day cycle but who knows if i do?! No signs of AF yet, symptoms havent subsided but had a BFN when i took a test at lunch (now wish i hadnt as i am very hydrated and dont think it would pick up even if i was) I know your going to tell me to wait - but i guess im asking if anyone has got pregnant straight away after coming off contraception an not knowing your cycle, and did anything stand out to you?!

I got pregnant with my second the same month I stopped the pill. It can happen.

I got pregnant twice on the first month after stopping my pill (first time was microgynon and second was cerazette)

It can definitely happen and I’ve read more likely when stopping a progesterone only pill, which Cerazette is.

part of my fear i guess is a few years ago i had a MMC after geting pregnant 2 weeks after coming off the pill, in my head i associate getting pregnant straight away as bad news

Pregnant with twins about 2 weeks after stopping Cerazette. Apparently it’s common to conceive multiples straight after coming off the pill, particularly if you’re a little older..

DH and I have 3 kids (4 pregnancies).
Each one was within the first month of trying. Well, it took about 3 months after losing No2 but I assume my body was a bit messed up for a while.

Other than my miscarriage, all my instant pregnancies were run of the mill, easy and healthy. I don't think my MC had anything to do with just coming off the pill.

I got pregnant within a month of coming off Cerelle. I'm now 30 weeks! It's totally possible. X

Ds1 was conceived the first month when I stopped the pill. I was... surprised. Grin

Took me 8 months but anything from straight away to 18 months is considered normal.

I don’t know what pill I was on but I do know after 7 years of not conceiving and not using protection (not pulling out or keeping tabs on ovulation dates either) I decided to take the pill for acne. I took for 5 months and conceived the same week
