Depo shot

After I had my son who is now 6months, and on my six week check up I got a depo shot it was in August of 2012 and I didn't go back to get my second shot in nov. CAN I conceive if I only got one shot?

Depo is only good for three months. So yes, you are not protected and could get pregnant.

You sure can! So if you don't want to conceive, you need to use a back up until you get another shot or another form of BC. If you think you might already be pregnant, take a test.
