Jodieee answered Tuesday August 29 2006, 11:56 pm: Ok. Firstly, how old are you.
If you arent at least in your 20s you shouldnt be having a baby. I KNOW lots of 16,17,18,19 yr olds have babies but its not like they really wanted it.
Are you ready to be taking care of a baby? Do you think you can afford it? And do you have your life on track to be caring for another person?
It sounds like you are a bit on the young side, because the obvious answer is: you will get pregnant when you get pregnant. stop taking the pill, and keep trying til it happens. [ Jodieee's advice column | Ask Jodieee A Question ]

I couldn't tell you "how much more difficult." & then again, I can be wrong. Obviously, you can get pregnant at anytime when you have unprotected sex. So you could very well get pregnant next week. Since none of us here are doctors, it's probably best you speak to your gynecologist about it. & he can probably give you a better idea or advice for your situation.

Now all you have to do is wait. God has to decide if you are ready or not, and if you are, you will be pregnant. Its faith. Believe me. [ MsHelpAlot's advice column | Ask MsHelpAlot A Question ]
BitsandPieces answered Tuesday August 29 2006, 11:23 am: Talk to your doctor as soon as you can. She/he will give you the best advice on your personal situation. In general, it is recommended that a woman stop taking the pill for several months at least before becoming pregnant. Conception might occur right away, or take longer depending on various factors only your doctor can verify. You may want to use condoms until you have seen your obgyn. Make an appointment today!
