TTC, Ovulating, Etc...

[xchristine.livejournal.com]

I looked through ljskeek briefly as I don't have a whole lot of time to research right now. I am looking to have another baby, and got my IUD taken out in June (after only having it for 10 months). I took Orthotricyclen for a month and a half afterwards, but not regularly or every day. 2, almost 3 weeks ago I stopped taking BC all together in hopes of getting pregnant. I have no idea how long it generally takes to get pregnant after being on so many hormonal birth controls.

My main question is: I'm using an ovulation calendar (it's crazy how regular my periods have been regardless of all the changes in hormones) and it says I am fertile today and am ovulating on Sept. 4th - assuming that the hormones from b/c are out of my system, how good of a chance do I have of getting pregnant from the sex last night? I know sperm can live up to 5 days. I also plan on having sex more this weekend..

I hope this makes sense to someone out there :) I am having insane baby fever right now and feel like it's such a good time to add to our family that I'm overly excited and anxious!

That's good, because the first time we got pregnant it didn't take much (I even took the morning after pill.. late, on the 2nd or 3rd day, he's a miracle baby of sorts lol).. I was really hoping it wouldn't take long for the second. :) Thanks!
