Coming off contraceptive pill and ttc baby #1!
cheesecoleslaw86
Regular
I came off the pill in November and had my usual withdrawl bleed, then it took 35 days for my first proper period! It lasted 6 days and appeared normal enough. My cycles were always 25/26 days previously and very regular. I am now DC 39 and no sign of AF and all tests are coming up bfn.
Has anyone got any tips on how to regulate their cycle that worked for them? I had started taking folic acid and read that it can make cycles last longer so I'm not sure whether to stop this. I was only on the pill for 4 months. I previously was on the pill for 15 years and when I came off it had no issues. It's just very frustrating π’
Any help is much appreciated π

I am currently pregnant with #2 - I went back on the pill after #1 but it didn't work out with being busy etc! So went on the injection x
It might just be that ovulation has been delayed this cycle, making your cycle longer. Have you been stressed or anything?
I'm not feeling bothered about mine atm but if I get to 6 weeks and she hasn't shown I'll be getting a bit stressy lol
Thankfully hubby has made the decision to take some time out of work which I fully support so hopefully this will help chill things a bit for him and for me π
I've been feeling a lot of AF symptoms but it could just be my hormones trying to settle down
Ahh that's good!! How long does he have off?
He has a line in for 2 months so that'll give him some time to relax and think about his next move. He's never off so I know how stressed he is. And that's not good for the old Sperm either..... π I am literally a crazy person ππ€£
I am feeling better today thank you after a week of having a nasty sinus infection. I think being off work and cabin fever exasperated my levels of conception crazy lolΒ
I have been doing my temps last few wks (not properly but just out of curiosity and to get myself in way of remembering to do it before I get up) and had a big drop today (lower than its ever been) so I think af could be here very soon which pleases me π Imagine being excited for that.... This is my life now, hahaha!Β
Not forgetting the dog for snuggles.
Ahh that's good! I had a temp drop earlier this week but since then it's just increased a little bit and been steady lol π€·ββοΈ
I hope yours in AF so you can have a fresh cycle. Do you use Fertility Friend to log it all too?
I haven't used fertility friend but I downloaded the femometer app. Would you recommend the fertility friend one? I have heard a few people talking about it.Β
Yeah I have Femometer to upload my temp and then transfer it over to FF as the chart is easier to read.
Thanks for your on-going support it really helps. I hope you have a fab wkend and I hope af comes riding in on her broom for us both π
