TTC After Birth Control

Did you recently -- or some time ago -- come off birth control to TTC? What birth control were you using? Have your periods/cycles returned to your normal? Are you waiting a few months, or trying right away?

TTC After Birth Control

crazy cycles for a year now.

I have been off birth control for exactly a year. my cycles are still not regular. sometimes they are about 40 days. they seem to slowly be going down, for awhile they were about 38ish days down to 35ish days then I hit 31 days. and now all the sudden I went from 31 days to 20 days. but the 20 day cycle was nothing but 5 days worth of really light spotting. then 20 days after that it was a real solid period. so I'm not sure if that first 20 day cycle was even a period. Now once again at 20 days, I had a sudden flow of pink/brown that almost filled a pad in one go then nothing else that day. the next day it was a small flow of brownish water that didn't even fill a panty liner. and nothing since then. any insight on this? I'm so confused as to what is going on. I always got pregnant the first month off bc whenever we were trying to conceive before but this time, I can't figure out when I'm ovulating cuz my cycles are so out of whack.

I was frustrated and stressing.

I was on BC for 2 1/2 years got off of it last October so it has officially been 9 months with me TTC for our second child. I got really frustrated and sad back in May when I started my menstrual I started to cry. I had to calm down and realize that it was my first regular menstrual in months. It seems like everyone around me is getting pregnant and they are not even trying. So I decided to stop trying so hard and enjoy being a newlywed. It is very frustrating but I could say I have learned a lot about my body in these past months. So a little bit of prayer and less stressing is what I am working on now. So for the ladies who are stressing Ive learned just relax a little bit your little blessing will come soon.

First month off BC

I came off BC around the end of May and was TTC the month of June. I had cramping and discomfort up until yesterday when I started my first period off BC. It came right on time and I am hoping that this is the month. We will see.

9months after bc - preseed the answer?????

Been off bc since last July. Had two cycles of about 50 days and now seem to be on a regular cycle of 30/31 days. My luteal phase seems to be about 12-13 days. But still no pregnancy??
Thinking of trying pre seed this month? Any one have any thoughts, or ideas of if this is good/bad? Or other options we should try???

First month off the pill... Is prengancy possible?

I just went off birth control at the end of April ( I was only on it 7 months). I am now on cycle day 16 with what appears to be EWCM. Is it possible for me to get pregnant in the first month unprotected? I really want to have a baby but I've read of couples waiting for so long after BC I just wonder if it's even possible in the first few months and what are the odds if anyone knows. Thanks.
