Ortho tricyclen -lo.
I never, ever, I mean never ever ever missed a dose. Eric and I were going to try next year to conceive, but we were considering spending the money and doing the gender selection thing. Guess everything happens for a reason.

So glad we didn't have to spend the 18,000 + for the procedure.

I was on that for 5 years , had to take it when I was 12 to regulate my periods , it worked well and kept my face free of zits going through puberity .

I came off of it after 5 years because my body became so adjusted to it that I had breakthrough bleedings

Ooh, i think i'm safe (knock on wood)... I've never been on OTC.. granted, i started on it but it was just toooooo hormonal for me... i've been on either Ortho Cyclen or YAZ

no joke...*sigh*...I feel sorry for the BF...hahahaha...I might have to switch though, with all these stories and such...I have a friend back in NM that all 3 of her children are "birth control babies"...she jokingly says that she should just stop with the sex because no matter what she's taking, a baby come along! her children are adorable though!

Well honestly my first 2 I was soooo Young I don't remember..lol. but with this one we actually were trying..for over a year. Well as much as we could him ony being home 1 week a month. Some months he would be home all through "ovulation week" and nothing. So I thought maybe my age was an issue..I just turned 34 in June. So we got all comfy with just accepting our doggie as our baby, and I was ok with concentrating on other things. He got off 1 day early one month...missed the flights home..so he jumpseated on UPS..I think I am pregnant today thanks to UPS!! What a special delivery..

anyway... I was like clockwork and I tempted and tracked my cycles that whole year..never did I ovulate past day 14 he got home day 16..and well he must have had a marathon swimmer!

A week later I was with my oldest daughter at her college orintation in Long beach Cali..I was so thirsty for water...I hate water and have to put all sorts of lemon to drink alot of it..I knew right then Something strange was going on in my body..needless to say I am almost 15 weeks pregnant and Db still can't believe it.....

So for all those in your 30's I know how it feels to hear that tickety-tock clock...but it happens..even after trying and getting no where..lol I wish I Had a crystal ball and knew for sure I could have kids past 35....
