    Hi. I'd been taking the pill for 11 years without any breaks. Came off and fell pg within 2 months w/o actively trying! We had to laugh, my dr did say to me when i asked him a few months earlier if i should take a break from the pill cause i had been on it so long. His advice was that if i wanted to get pg then i should come off the pill! If only we had listened (not that we would change anything for the world now!). As you can see, it really varies from person to person - being on the pill doesn't seem to change that part of the equation! Good Luck

    With DD1 i came off the pill in Oct 05...and fell pregnant Feb 06.

    DD2 i wasnt on the pill after having DD1 and fell within 6 weeks post birth.

    I was on pill for 3 months after DD2 birth to get cycle back to 28 days again for #3...so stayed tuned for how long it takes
