I started SQ about 3 weeks ago and am on day 5 of the second bottle.  I started this while I was on holidays away from my husband.  I'm about to return back in a few days and I'm nervous about continuing with SQ.  We are trying to get pregnant and I'm scared that taking SQ may affect things.  I know with the amount of caffeine, one should not take SQ while pregnant but I haven't found any information about becoming pregnant while taking SQ.  I've really enjoyed taking SQ Naturals and haven't had any negative side-effects.

Any thoughts please?

    Contact your doctor and get your husbands opinion. If I were you i would discontinue the use of the pills you never know it may affect your fertility so just make sure you talk to your doctor about it. P.S good luck with the upcoming pregnancy i hope your home is filled with joy!

    I agree, I think stopping the diet supplements trying to get pregnant is necessary and not taking any while pregnant either or breast feeding if you choose.

    I wouldn't mess around with diet pills or anything like that while trying to get pregnant, whenever you become pregnant or if you decided to breast feed. I personally wouldn't take the risk because my child is way more important than a few extra pounds...wait until after to use any pills like that...even if they are "natural"...they're still a pill that meant to make you lose weight.

    Yes, drop the diet pills while trying to get pregnant. This will also force you to watch what you eat and find alternative ways to stay focused on maintaining a healthy weight or even losing a little weight when you are pregnant. I thought I was fat when I got pregnant but I still used pregnancy as a license to eat whatever I wanted and gained 70 lbs! My son is now 4 months old and I am now 40 lbs heavier than my pre-pregnancy weight and it is now a long hard road to getting back down to that weight. Don't do what I did - practice discipline and self control with your eating habits NOW.

    Thanks so much everyone for your advice! I will be stopping the pills and then take it from there.

    Hey, girl! I took SQ before I got pregnant with my son who is now 9 months old. Right before my husband and I started trying to concieve I quit smoking (YAY!) and stopped taking the SQ. You should always treat yourself as though you are already pregnant when ur trying to concieve. Get a lot of rest, drink plenty of water, eat right, exercise, don't take OTC medications, and make sure you talk to ur OB about any prescription meds you're on before u try to concieve. Some OTC and prescription meds affect fertility as well as your unborn baby. Have your husband get serious about his own health as well. His diet and exercise, even underwear, can affect his motility. I wish you the best of luck and pray that you soon hear the pitter patter of little feet! Thank God for kids!
