We weren't trying to get pregnant and I was tracking my cycle so that I knew when the "danger" week was. However, I clearly forgot to check in February and Valentine's Day happened. :) However, I had been on folic acid and a multi vitamin for awhile. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-449238 Fri, 14 Dec 2012 15:37:05 +0000 ourwiredlives 449238@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had an IUD and not birth control pills, but it took us 6 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-449235 Fri, 14 Dec 2012 15:33:54 +0000 chesamine 449235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@monet11: I'm so happy for those who got a BFP so quickly. I wish the same for my husband and I. I got excited this month because I was 4 days late and was hoping we would get a BFP, but to my dismay, I was just 4 days late. I'm currently on cycle 9 ever since we were officially TTC. I was never on BCP and thought this was going to be easier. Nevertheless, we're not going to give up. Much luck to you and your husband when you guys start TTC. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-429050 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 11:03:19 +0000 monet11 429050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sugar.Biscuit: Fingers crossed for cycle 10! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-428963 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 10:13:40 +0000 ladyfingers 428963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was 6 months between when we pulled the pill and got pregnant, but we were only actively trying (charting, etc.) for 2 of those months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-428813 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 08:31:18 +0000 immabeetoo 428813@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sugar.biscuit i hope cycle 10 is the one :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-428789 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 07:43:56 +0000 ValentineMommy 428789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>First time NTNC we got pregnant. We were shocked it happened so fast! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-428787 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 07:41:16 +0000 Sugar.Biscuit 428787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@scg00387: Dr told us to wait 3 months post BC before we tried &amp; I had already started a prenatal. I REALLY wanted to listen to the doctor but there was no way I was waiting 3 months (God had His plans, cycle 9 all w/ BFN). Sex right after going off the pill was the best sex ever! Fingers crossed that cycle 10 will give us our BFP! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-428732 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 03:58:56 +0000 sera_87 428732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@monet11: i had been off BC for about a year &amp; a half, was using condoms before ntnp though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-428628 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 23:01:50 +0000 shopaholic 428628@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We probably did 3-4 months on/off of NTNP, but never got pregnant. Granted, with DHs work schedule, we don't DTD that frequently to just randomly hit the OV window period well and I was pretty irregular after getting of BC.<br /> We got pregnant on our 3rd cycle TTC (but resulted in a m/c) and pregnant again on the 2nd cycle after m/c. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-428611 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 22:42:08 +0000 littlecasita1122 428611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The first cycle...I decided to stop taking my pill after my period came last August and then got pregnant in Sept. I probably should have waited a month or two to let things regulate and also to start taking prenatals but it is what it is! Had a healthy baby :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-428597 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 22:25:32 +0000 immabeetoo 428597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did, 2 tries for us. I had been off BCP for a year &amp; taking prenatals for 3 months per my doctor's suggestion :) Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-428563 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 21:53:59 +0000 mango.sprays 428563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>First month NTNT, but we didn't realize and it ended up being ectopic and requiring surgery. Now we're TTC actively.<br /> I haven't been on hormonal BC for years, but we were using condoms before NTNT. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-427590 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 05:18:16 +0000 anonysquire 427590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are still waiting for our month.

I am surprised at how quickly it happened for so many of you! That's so great. I hope we are the same way. For those of you that said one or two cycles, were you coming right off of bcp or did you allow your cycles to regulate for a bit? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-425850 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 19:08:22 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 425850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One or two cycles </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-425841 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 19:01:25 +0000 Ra 425841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Two cycles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-425733 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 17:36:24 +0000 sera_87 425733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>the next cycle </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-425723 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 17:31:09 +0000 Weagle 425723@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both times I got a BFP the first month, but the first ended in a miscarriage. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-425718 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 17:30:00 +0000 HLK208 425718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>3 cycles for us </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-425713 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 17:27:26 +0000 MrsHotDog 425713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It took us a whole two cycles. We are very blessed it happened so easy (both times -currently baking baby #2) but I was shocked. Apparently I have no idea how my cycle works. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-425709 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 17:24:31 +0000 LindsayInNY 425709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going off my BC in two weeks (one active week left, one placebo week). I wanted a month of NTNP to let my cycle regulate back out but DH doesn't want to wait. So we'll see! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-425655 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 16:54:26 +0000 Charcole2011 425655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we got pregnant on my first cycle off BCP (as in, I finished a pack, had my period/withdrawal bleed, didn't start a new pack, and 4 weeks later got the BFP...so I never even had a "real" period!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ntnp-how-long-before-you-got-pergnant#post-425581 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 16:14:20 +0000 monet11 425581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So we are not actively TTC yet, but we are not preventing it either. I just stopped the pill last month and we decided we would "see what happens!" Anyone else do this? How long before you got a BFP?? </p>
