I got pregnant the next month after stopping but I miscarried. I think my

hormones were not ready yet. I got pregnant again 4 months after the miscarraige

and just had my baby boy 4 days ago. good Luck to you. I was not a very

fertile person either so to get pregnant 2 times so fast is weird for me.

Hello Sab!

That is so exciting for you guys, my lips are sealed!

Getting pregnant was a shock for us as it wasn't planned but I had gone

off the birth control pill because I thought it might help me lose that

last 10 pounds I had been struggling to get off for some time. I didn't

tell anyone that I stopped taking the pill-- I wasn't married at the

time and I didn't need lectures from people so I just never really said

that wasn't the case when they would say something. My friends think I

got pregnant due to mal-absorption of the pill due to the surgery-- I

didn't feel the need to explain to people when they asked that it was

due to lack of control on our part... that we weren't using protection

at the time!!

I stopped taking the pill mid-August/beginning of September and my last

period was 11/15/03-- that was the date they used to calculate my due

date. Because I stopped the pill and didn't know how my cycle would be,

I tracked my period so I knew when to expect it. There was only ONE

time during that period where I stopped the pill where we didn't use a

condom and guess what happened...haha I am having a baby boy in 3

weeks!! This was just my experience but I had been on the pill since my

son was born almost 10 years ago-- I honestly didn't think that one time

without protection would result in a pregnancy considering I had been on

the pill for so long but I was wrong. & I are so happy about the

baby and Jake is thrilled as well; I am glad that it happened the way it

did!!

Good luck to you guys, how exciting! Have a good night,

Ivy Nielsen--3 weeks and counting for me to d-day!!

Hi all. I'm new here and have a quick question but I'll give you a

quick intro first.

My DOS was 4/25/03 so I'm 15 months out. I'm done losing weight

(I've been at this weight for 4+ months). I'm past my personal

weight loss goal of -100 pounds, I'm at -110.

My husband and I have decided to try and have a baby. (FYI - My

husband is also a WLS patient who is 14 months out.) I have a

daughter who is almost 11 from a previous marriage. I'm 29.

Anyway, my question is this: for those of you who have become

pregant - how long after stopping birth control pills did it take you

to become pregnant?

I'm just currious

Sab

(PS - Ivy...sssshhhhh!!!! I promised Jon I wouldn't tell anyone we

were " trying " so he didn't feel pressured if it didn't work out LOL -

so you don't know!)

Children are a blessing, and a gift from the Lord. -Psalm 127:3

I stopped taking my pills in October and conceived in January. When I didn't

conceive in November OR December, I bought an ovulation prediction kit and it

worked like a charm! So, 3 months for me!

Congratulations on your weight loss and good luck & have fun baby making!

Hey all. I am glad i found this group. I am a 41y/o cauc female..non-

smoker. 2 years ago, after going through a year of extensive testing

and a diagnosis of lyphoma with mets to my bones, lungs, thyroid, and

spleen....I was finally diagnosed correctly with Sarcoidosis. It is

not too bad, although I wheeze and get short of breath easily..I have

about 20 masses in my lungs, mostly around my mediastinam.

I have had serious trouble with light for about 20 years. My eye

doctor just poo-poo's it off.

I have also been have more frequent urinary/kidney type

symptoms...I will get horrid pain in my back for about 6 hours, nausea,

and firey burning when i try to urinate. I was amazed to read some of

the posts about kidney stones ect.

Anyways, I feel I am realatively healthy, I do work 2 jobs and I am

a single mother of a 16 and 5 year old. I would love to take any

suggestions on how to avoid becoming increasingly sick.
