Those of you who were on Ortho Tri Cyclen...

Hi

My wedding is in September, and I am not sure yet when we will start TTC but I have a question:

If you were on the BC pill Ortho Tri Cyclen, how long after your went off of it did you get pregnant?

Thanks
Jen

PS I love sneaking on here and looking at all the pics, the baby pics are beautiful!

LESS THEN ONE MONTH!! We thought it woudl take a little longer but I guess I'm just a tad fertile. I went of OTC at the end of Dec. and got prego in mid Jan. I would speak to your doctor though, I'm sure this isn't always the case.

I went off in Sept ... 3 months b/f the wedding. Dr's say it could take up to 6 mnths. But we were pg by Feb! About 2 months of seriously trying ... not counting the HM!!

Thanks
