Pregnant after coming off the pill

[indigo277]

Hey everyone,
I know no one knows how long it takes to get pregnant after stopping the pill but just wanted to hear some good stories of it not taking too long!
I stopped taking Rivegdon 3 weeks ago after being on it for 3 years since having our son and I have been having unprotected sex with my husband regularly for the last 3 weeks and so far no period or any signs of one which I'm trying not to get excited about but also know could be because i haven't got back into my cycle yet.
Just wanted some other peoples journeys to read as I'm 31 and starting to worry about whether I'll be able to give my son a sibling due to being on the pill for so long.
Please be kind, I have anxiety so also know I am overthinking the whole thing xx

I was on the pill from the age of about 16 and came off it in June 2020. We didn't try straight away but I fell pregnant on the first month actively trying in September 2020. Good luck 😊

I was on the combined pill for 10 years, came off at 29 to start trying, had my usual withdrawal bleed but never had a proper period as I fell pregnant within 3 weeks after that ending! So it definitely can happen quickly - I appreciate that’s not always the case, but I was on it for a very long time and had similar fears x

Thank you ladies!! I too had a withdrawal bleed like normal then just didn't take the pill
Anymore after that so if the app is right I should be due on in 3 days- then I'll be testing! Fingers crossed xx

I was taking the pill for around 8 years prior to having my first child. Then went back on it after him and was on it for 5 years then came off it to have my second child. I had a withdrawal bleed after stopping and conceived the first month of trying.

I was on the combined pill for a few years and got pregnant the first cycle after coming off. Unfortunately, that ended in miscarriage which did cause me a lot of anxiety at the time. I was able to get pregnant again two cycles after that and carried a happy and healthy baby to term

I came off the pill for hormonal blood testing aged 30, just for a month. Was told I'd have fertility issues so didn't use protection, and fell pregnant straight away! Sending you lots of luck!

I was planning to try for our second in January after Christmas etc was out the way but ran out of pills ( mini pill) in late November and didn't bother getting any for the month. I thought it was unlikely but DD was convinced before January.

1 month

I was on the combined pill from 19-22. Progesterone only pill from 22-31.
I conceived my daughter after 4 months.
I then went back on the progesterone only pill from 3 weeks postpartum until my daughter was 3.5 years. I conceived on my second month, miscarried at 10 weeks in August and I got a positive test last week.
