getting pregnant on the mini pill

[lydiathetattooedlady]

hi all, i found out last night after 3 tests im pregnant. despite initial shock and worry about what dp would say (he it turns out is really happy!)im also now excited. however im worried about how high a risk of miscarriage i may be as started taking the mini pill at end of last period (obviously hasnt worked!. any advice? i've told him i dont want anyone knowing as im sure i must be at a high risk?

i got pg on mini pill - baby looks fine! have told gp/midwife etc and no one in the least bit concerned - my notes say low risk I'm sure it's fine - though such a shock isn't it? I don't trust the mini pill anymore (Although very happy it didn't work now!)

Congratulations!

13m DS proves it didn't work for me either. I did have the odd problem with the pg, but I doubt it had anything to do with the mini-pill.

Good luck!

(Don't use the mini pill anymore either!)

i got pregnant on the pill (loestrin), i'm 32 weeks now and all seems fine. BTW as the pill causes your body to mimic pregnancy, putting in place things to grow a little one in your womb, i'd have thought if anything being on the pill would help maintain a pregnancy not the opposite!

My DD was concieved on the pill, she is now 10 months and had a heathly pregnancy

DC2 - concvied on the mini pill, while also still breastfeeding a 6month old and I am now 16 weeks.

Nobody was concerned at all about either pregnancies and I have classes as low risk both times.

thanks for all the replies, i didnt want to start getting excited too soon! now just the wait to the 12 weeks scan eek!
