I have to go to the doctor anyway on Monday (tomorrow) so will talk about it then. Horrible side effects though if that's what it is!! ]]> Sun, 13 Jun 2010 17:27:15 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34013&PID=1061970&title=pregnant-on-depo#1061970 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34013&PID=1061940&title=pregnant-on-depo#1061940 Author: freckle

I don't think its just the fact that she is on the depo that would make it harder for her to concieve, its the fact that she is also breastfeeding exclusively , that helps prevent ovulation and pregnancy as well .]]> Sun, 13 Jun 2010 13:58:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34013&PID=1061791&title=pregnant-on-depo#1061791 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34013&PID=1061674&title=pregnant-on-depo#1061674 Author: Lexidore

i had wiked sode effects with depo. spotting the whole 9 months i was on it. my mood and tiredness were chronic. it also took me 9 months of clomid once i came off to get pregnant so its unlikely but everyone reacts different so i would test just in case]]> Sun, 13 Jun 2010 11:12:37 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34013&PID=1061630&title=pregnant-on-depo#1061630 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34013&PID=1061621&title=pregnant-on-depo#1061621 Author: freckle

I never had af the whole 2 years I was on the depo... I would think it would be very unlikely to get UTD on it ... but not impossible so maybe just test to put ya mind at ease

ETA - nausea can be a side effect of the depo

Okay cool, yeah I knew it stopped the egg release and all but my mum had to say "You're not pregnant already are you?!" Which made me think about it like mad!

It is stressful not having AF!

Guess I can stop stressing now!! ]]> Sat, 12 Jun 2010 23:16:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34013&PID=1061459&title=pregnant-on-depo#1061459 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34013&PID=1061456&title=pregnant-on-depo#1061456 Author: TheKelly

found this

How does Depo-Provera® prevent pregnancy?

The injected DMPA suppresses your pituitary gland which stops your ovaries from releasing eggs. Without these eggs, pregnancy can't happen. The injections also change the lining of your uterus and the mucus in your cervix. By changing your cervical mucus, the hormones make it more difficult for sperm to reach the egg.



How effective are Depo-Provera® injections?

If women get Depo-Provera® injections at the right time every 3 months, they are more than 99% effective. This means that if 100 women get Depo-Provera® injections at the right time, less than 1 woman will become pregnant in a year.]]> Sat, 12 Jun 2010 23:09:17 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34013&PID=1061456&title=pregnant-on-depo#1061456 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34013&PID=1061455&title=pregnant-on-depo#1061455 Author: Mucky_Tiger

it is definatly possible.
i proved that taking depo and norimin can still lead to pregnancy. not a sucessful one though, but a pregnancy none the less.

if you test in the morning it should be accurate depending on how preg you could be. IYGWIM

like any contraception none of it is a hundred percent except abstinence
BUT in your case, considering you are still exclusively breast feeding and on a contraception which is supposed to be one of the more successful , I would really doubt you are UTD
the symptoms you are feeling are more likely side affects, I had the same side affects when I first went on it , they went after awhile .
Along with my slim figure, took that away too ]]> Sat, 12 Jun 2010 23:07:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34013&PID=1061454&title=pregnant-on-depo#1061454 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34013&PID=1061442&title=pregnant-on-depo#1061442 Author: High9

Not sure where to put this, but hope here is good...

Just wondering if anyone knows anyone who has got pregnant on the Depo injection (after the first injection or at all) or has got pregnant themselves on it?

I had it at 6 weeks post baby, and bled from 7-9 weeks post. DP and I didn't do anything (iygwim) until 7 weeks as nurse advised us to wait a week. Anyway I don't have AF back, I am exclusively breast feeding DD about 2-3 hourly day and night.

However... I have been having really, really weird dreams! (I only ever dreamed when pregnant, as soon as DD was born it stopped!), I have been really tired too for the past 2 weeks and the last couple of days I have felt nauseous. I can't tell if my boobs are tender or and I notice smells but can't tell if it's more than normal iygwim...

If I am still feeling sick in a couple of days I will test but just wondering what anyone knows/has experienced with this topic...

Thanks in advance!! ]]> Sat, 12 Jun 2010 22:48:36 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34013&PID=1061442&title=pregnant-on-depo#1061442
