quick bcp question, if anyone is up...
Dr. B said to take the first BCP tonight. That means I start with the "sunday" pill, right, not the "wednesday" pill? I didn't think about it until I opened the pack...it has been years since I was on BCP!

yup! start with the first pill in the pack. Did they put you on Femcon? That's the one I used after my chemical. (not that it makes a difference.. just curious!  )

thanks! Yup, it's Femcon. I told DH it sounds like something out of a sci fi movie. I was only ever on ortho tri cyclen in the past...here's hoping for no side effects!

lol...i just found the stickers in the back of the pack to change the days of the week for the pills. Seriously, I totally forgot how to take the pill after all this time!

Re: quick bcp question, if anyone is up...
It's pretty cool because it has a mint taste.. just don't take it with anything but water.. Not that it really matters, but I found it tasted weird if I took it with iced tea for example!
Anyway the only side effect I got was a headache but it didn't last long. When I took it in December I had a headache for 2 days after... this last time I had a headache for like a week. It wasn't bad though!  Honestly I know it doesn't feel like it now but before you know it your bcp break is halfway through... and then you have a week left.. and then it's done. It really does go by fast, but I know now it's impossible to believe that!!

Yea........... bcp are so old school and to think you want a baby REALLY badly and going through infertility. .yet on the pill!!
When I was on the pill in December I also had to use condoms!!  I was getting a hysteroscopy and there's a chance you can still get pregnant on the pill ( like THAT would happen!!)
Anyway I was infertile.. wanted a baby more than anything in the world.. on the pill.. and using condoms. It would be so easy for an outsider to identify my why I can't have babies!!
