I stopped taking BCP 5 weeks ago, and have been waiting to start my period for the last week. I took a pregnancy test today, and it's positive! I know I shouldn't be surprised, but I am! And ecstatic!!!

(I just asked my husband how to spell ecstatic. Before he could answer, I said, "Oh, like ecstasy, so no 'x'." He was like, "Yeah, why would you spell it with an 'x'?" I'm like, "Pregnancy brain!" ...He did a face palm. So glad I can use that excuse now!)
