I have talked to my doctor he has put me on the pill so that i get a period but if im on the pill i wont be able to fall pregnent which i was confused at as i told him that i wanted a baby, but i think that he thinks that i am a stupid little girl and just like all the young women that live in dundee who walk about with there prams just for show. But im not i hve been with my partner for 5 years and am settled down we bought our first house together a year past may and i think that we have done quite well for being so young. I really want to try and have a baby. I have got another appointment at the doctors next week so i am going to ask him if i can come off the pill and try to have a baby. Thanks for giving me some hope
