hello my names Jade im 21 , i have a 4 year old son and i am ttc for number 2.
after having my son i went straight onto the contraceptive implant as i thought that would be easiest as i wouldnt have to remember to take pills and i was sure i didnt want a another child at the time.
after a year and a half of continuous bleeding i had the implant removed at a family planning clinic the nurse there told me it would be best for me to me to go straight onto the contraceptive injection depo provera and gave me a small leaflet about it me being me thought' i may aswell its easier than taking the pill everyday' i had three more injections at the famlily planning clinic over the next year then during which i didnt bleed at all (which after a year and a half of bleeding constantly was bliss)
then in in june 08 decided to go and see the nurse at my gps office for my fifth injection when i told her i was on depo provera she wasnt too pleased she advised me to come off it straight away as i was young and there were many side affects so from there i went strate onto the mini pill i was on it for 3 weeks and i realised i hadnt had a normal period since before id gotten pregnant with my lil boy. i thought id give my body a break from all the contraceptives and make my partner be responsible for contraception for a while. after 6 months i hadnt had a period and was testing for pregnancy every month as i was having symptoms but every test was negative it was during all this testing that i decided i wanted another lil 1 .
i never had any sort of period from june 08 when i came off the injection till june 09 since that i have had three normal cycles and opk testing this month showed i am having a lh surge so therefore i should be ovulating however i dnt seem to be getting pregnant .
i no i havent been trying for that long really but im onli 21 and with my lil man it onli took 2 cycles. anyone in a similar situation or can anyone give me any advice?? i have researched on getting pregnant after depo and have seen loads of horror stories x
