Hi there! I am in the same boat with you. I stopped taking my bcp last month after 8 years. I got my period on Jan 6 as expected. That would mean I would have ovulated around Jan 22. That is if I even ovulated. Some doctors say that woman don't ovulate right after coming off the pill but some do. Everyone's different. My husband and I are ttc, so I hope I am in that % of women that do ovulate right away. But it's driving me crazy that I can't really test yet. I am also confused because symptoms of coming off the pill can mimic pregnancy. I am not really having cramping but I am more hungry than usual, I have gained about 5 pounds, I have a lot of fatigue, constipation, and I get this weird taste in my mouth a lot. I have read many stories where woman have gotten pregnant right away after bcp and others that have taken at least 3 months. How long were you on the pill for? Do you have any other symptoms? I hope I helped. I know I didn't really anser your question. But I do know hard it is to hear "maybe" or you "could be" preg. Keep me updated and feel free to email me at crazydazy1122@yahoo.com Good luck!
Amy
