New to this and need some help! (TMI!, Sorry!)
Happy new year everyone!
Me and OH have just started TTC but I am completely clueless about the whole thing!
I stopped the pill 3 weeks ago and 2 days ago started what I thought was a period, however, and this maybe TMI, it only lasted the afternoon and it was brown blood not red? Is this normal or is my body playing tricks?
Also would I class that as CD1 so CD 3 today?
Help please!

I wouldn't count the discharge as CD1 as that should be a full day of proper bleeding. The brown stuff sounds like old 'gunk' not fresh (this sounds so gross lol)
Should I wait for that first period to make an appearance before ttc?
Me and OH have done a fair bit of bding since the end of my pill already!
When do you noramlly ov (without using sticks) is it around cd14-17?
Regarding OV'ing if you have a normal 28 day cycle then yes I think its about day 14-17. I'm on CD26 and am tracking my temps and think I OV'd yesterday/today.
This is soo exciting isn't it?! Was just in a meeting and drifted away in my own private world thinking OMG I could be pregnant!!!
Just wish I could have a period now so that we can get cracking! That is the first time I have wished for my period, lol! And also the last!
Af if you can hear me come this once then bugger off for 9 months!
i have heard of this 'herbal' thing called agnus castus and its meant to re-regulate your monthyl cycle, so could be worth a go. i looked in holland and barrat at lunch and its ??4.99 for about a month's worth.
have heard some people take it and have AF the next day! xx
Its a pain AF played about when i came off the pill.
Wouldnt want to get you all excited but if you ov'd on cd14 ish that would make you 10dpo ish - my point being it could be implantation bleeding.
When i came off the pill in 2005 i had my bfp 3w.4d after coming off the pill
Other wise she could be messing with you she is mean like that
Good Luck gem x
Was just so strange that I have had bad cramps and headaches (which I always get when the witch is on her way) and then the brown discharge with a little red, really thought that was her on the way, next day and nothing! And now the cramps have gone too!
Really hope everything gets back in the swing soon, I WANT A BABY!
I came off the pill at end of Oct and had my normal withdrawl bleed but then had spotting very similar to you - brown and a bit red - about 10 days later. I then got my first real period on CD26 and have beenhaving normal cycles since then. I also had the cramps and headaches - think it was just my body finally being able to do it's own thing again and sorting itself out. Good luck, hope you get sorted soon!!!.x.
I was on cerazette before so never had withdrawl bleeds or a pill free weeks as you have to run them pills on continuously. Have heard some nightmares about that pill now, wish I knew back then what I do now, would never have gone on to it!
Good luck, hope you get back to a normal cycle soon.
