    Do you think so? A lot of ppl have said no bcos I've only recently come off the pill buh others have said I can be pregnant almost straight away so I am a bit unsure xx

    you could be but when you come off the pill your hormones are all over as they are trying to settle into your natural cycle rather than one being influenced by the pill. It took 48 days for me to have my first proper period after coming off the pill so hang in there and see what happens! x

    Hi Jessiejames2013

    I'm 2 days late now myself & no sign of af either. I had cramping on Wednesday & then since Friday my boobs are sore & feeling bloated after eating. I've done a hpt & got BFN the day af was due but not tested again yet, trying to hold off until Tuesday lol

    Fingers crossed it's BFP for us both image

    I'm actually 2 weeks late now image not sure if its a good sign or not.. Have done 2 tests and they're negative.

    I think it might be the case of my body is getting used to having no pill in my system that's why I'm the way I am... Don't want to over excite myself for nothing xx

    Hi



    It really is so common for your natural period to take a while to come back.

    You can't count your period from your withdrawal bleed necessarily because this would have been caused by the pill.



    It is better (and less torturingimage ) to wait for your first real period to start charting your cycle. I don't think you can say you are late after your withdrawal bleed because it might be taking your body a couple of months to start ovulating.



    If your cycle had clicked back into place straight after stopping the pill you would have had an af by now or a bfp.



    If I were in your shoes I would jut be hoping for af to show so I could be sure of my cycle ready to bd for next month.image



    I don't want to sound mean but couldn't let you keep your hopes up when for most of us this happens after coming off te pill.

    I did get a 'real' period first month after stopping the pill and withdrawal bleed but my cycles were then really variable lasting anything from 14 to 35 days until they settled at about 4 months.



    Honestly it would have shown as a bfp by now even on a CBD if you were two weeks late.



    Best of luck for your ttc journey

    Jessie - Totally understand...and been there too. image

    TTC plays mind games on us all.

    My consultant told me that 80% of couples will get pregnant within 1 year and by 2 years 90% would have.  Realistically for a fertile couple who are bd at the right time of the month it takes 6 months on average.

    It sucks that even on a good run we only get 12 chances a year.  Thats why we all go mad about ovulation kits! image
