I've read a bit about this, & my doc recommended that to me as well, but not to be "cleansed" of the pill, but rather to allow the body to go through at least one natural cycle on its own, to make sure the endometrial lining would be healthy, etc. I believe it's similar to how the doc will tell women to wait a couple months after a m/c, just to make sure everything is functioning properly & on its own before trying again. Also, it does make the pregnancy easier to date if you've had at least one cycle off of BC. But the whole "harm to the fetus" thing is totally not true, studies have proved that wrong, & women who get pregnant while still on the pill in fact, have no harm to their babies.
