Hold on a second... You’re asking if birth control pills are harmful to a fetus if someone gets pregnant while on them, looking for actual experiences, and then—once you get an answer—you pivot to that logic of, "Well, a baby conceived through unprotected sex can still be born sick." Honestly, I find that pretty ridiculous. You might as well just wait for some woman who happened to get pregnant while on the pill to come along and give you medical advice. Whether you like my take or not, those of us on hormonal contraceptives are fundamentally altering our body chemistry. No doctor in the States is going to tell you to try for a baby while you're actively taking them.

My gynecologist suggested taking a month-long break after finishing the last pill before we started trying for a baby. At the end of the day, it's your call.

I personally know a woman—a family friend—who ended up pregnant while on the pill. Not a single doctor she saw, and she consulted quite a few, could guarantee she’d have a healthy baby. In the end, she suffered a miscarriage. I don't know; people write all sorts of things online, but for me, this is enough proof that something like this (getting pregnant while on birth control) isn't exactly ideal or healthy.🤷

Edit: This isn't about someone being irresponsible, so hearsay from people here doesn't really carry weight for me.

Thanks so much velvetwalker742! This is exactly what I was hunting for. 😍

Maybe I'm off base here (sorry Mayo 🙂), but has anyone come across those white ribbed pastry boxes? And I don't mean wavy ribbing—I mean vertical ridges (😕 hopefully that makes sense).

My experience with Absum (from a close relative's wedding) — the cake wasn't secured during transport, so by the time it hit the venue, it was a total disaster. The layers had completely slumped into one another. Honestly, it was heartbreaking to see. I suspect they’re taking on way too many orders because their prices are so low, but that’s hardly an excuse for such sloppy work. Not in my book.
