Many doctors in the past have recommended using condoms for 30 days after going off the pill to allow your body to remove any hormones/chemicals that would not be healthy for the baby.
You should consult your doctor before doing anything else. She/He may want to recommend a specific course of action knowing what combination of hormones/chemicals you are currently on.
BTW, if you are planning to have a child, do be financially and emotionally prepared to care for the child by yourself. You never know when a car accident or some other event may take your boyfriend away. (Don't mean to be morbid, just realistic.)

This is a life changing experience with a lifetime of responsibility even when your child turns 18 are you going to kick them out and let them care for themself after that point? I was 22 y/o when I had my first child I thought I was ready for everything but it was one heck of a reality check. You have this wonderful blessing that totally relies on you for absolutely everything, food, clothing, anything and everything you could possibly think and then more. You won't have a good night sleep for the first year if not longer.
In 1983 it was estimated that it would cost approximately $60,000 to raise a child from birth to 18 y/o, this number has probably doubled if not more since then.
There is no guarentee that you and your boyfriend will stay with each other until this child is grown, and nothing's saying that he's ready to raise a child. If I were you you I would consult a doctor or go to your local planned parenthood and get as much information as you can about raising a child before you make any drastic desitions.
They were talking about that pill issue on the Today Show the other day and they were saying that if you want to get pregnant and your on the pill it could take 2-3 months to actually get pregnant after being on the pill, your body has to readjust to the lack of hormones in your body before your body will let you get pregnant. I think you should get all the information you can before you make any decision. This advice is given with your best interest in mind. There are enough really messed-up kids in this world due to disfunctionality with-in their home life, so be careful and truly be ready before you make this choice in your life.

I agree with KitKat. From your past questions it sounds like you are barely out of highschool, have found an older man and want to bring some excitement into your life by having a child. Does your bf know you're planning on having a baby now, or are you going to trick him into it?
Since you're not married, how will you support yourself and the baby if/when he leaves you? You mention HE has a job and HE has a house, but what do you have? These might sound like mean questions, but you don't need to put a baby in the middle of a crazy situation cause "you wanted it".
ps. now you post that you're 'MARRIED', but all 3 of your other questions from the past few days say the same thing...that he's your BOYFRIEND. Did you just get married today?

First things first,you need to speak to the potential baby father if he really wants it great if not think about the next 18 yrs. plus of dealing with an ***. Next please speak to a licensed MD(Doctor) or your local planned parenthood,I know you can ask questions here but we are not trained medical doctors,we didn't do ten plus yrs. of med school.
Also go to the library & read up on birth natural & c-section how much it hurts,complications(you could be on bed rest like my friend for months,who pays your bills then??)Or gain tons of weight like my sister who went from 120lbs.to a nice 240lbs. with her first baby born in aug.06. But hey thats just my advice I like to plan for the best & prepare for the worst,
You need to be ready and able to handle things for your self if needs be, &
be mentally & financially stable babies cost!! In the end if the father takes off have a back up plan because no man is promised to you & these days alot of guys run off when faced with reponsiblity (but not all) because after all is said and done it's your baby and most women -even married are the primary caregivers in the beginning.
Good Luck choose wisely.

I am assuming you have identified a father for this child? That you have a home, and a means of support? Or am I just being silly?
Stop taking the pill, and let nture take it's course.

What do you mean by "I am of age"? Age plays an important roll but so do finances and maturity. I am not trying to be mean but you type like a teenager. If you and your BF can't commit to marriage then you certainly can't commit to a child that will cost you over $20,000 the first year.
