Hello!

Newbie here

Trying to work out if im being ridiculous. I came off the pill in January, had a 6 day bleed and that cycle was 24 days before I got my first proper period which lasted 6 days. I ttc after that period and thought this cycle would also be 24 days and because im on day 28 with no period Im hoping im pregnant even tho multiple tests say im not.

Im pretty sure I just havent been off the pill long enough to work out how long my cycles are, and af will be along any day now but each day that passes without af gives me too much hope. How can I be this obsessed already

What do you think?

Thanks x

Hi , yes it could be that your cycles are a little more unpredictable now you're off the pill to start with I know mine were for the first couple months ..but saying that your still in with a chance until af arrives.
Wait a few more days & test again have you had many symptoms ?

Thanks for your reply Bexta123!

Did you have 2 or 3 months of the cycle lengths being different and then the same?

I havent had any symptoms

Im shocked at how impatient I am lol

Just looking back on my chart it was 2 months because I had one really short cycle and then one really long , my cycles now on average are 35 days , and I'm currently 10 dpo.
Af due at the weekend so we shall see.

I'm the same though Hun, it is frustrating at times especially when you are actively trying. But don't give up hope just yet yourbstill in with a chance xx

Same here stopped my pill in January after my break and had a 31 day cycle.
Currently on cd34 and not pregnant so I'm guessing it's taking a while for cycles to get back to jormal

Hi everyone,

I stopped my pill November 2016, had withdrawal bleed, af after 38days and another in similar time period and now nothing on cd 58!!! So frustrating, am I ovulating, or have I stopped? I've done tests all negative and no symptoms of pregnancy or af! Fed up and impatient!

Really just want to know I'm normal and everything is working as it should!

Hi Flump,

Yes it can take a few months for your cycles to regulate after coming off the pill. I know how disappointing it can be when AF hasnt arrived yet and you think you might be pg but you're not .
My cycles have ranged from 33-38 days (came off pill Oct 16)
TTC really can be a learning curve, I have only started using OPKS to figure out when or even if I am ovulating and it's all still above my head lol! I know how you feel, you think you're going to be laid back about it but then you do become a bit obsessed!

Sammy86 have you started taking any vitamins or anything in this latest cycle? Its just in my last cycle I took pregnacare and my cycle was really long and I am convinced its that. So I've stopped taking it and just taking B12 & folic acid. Are you under stress? That can affect cycle length too.
Our bodies can be confusing as hell!

I'm also off the pill in Jan, cycles all over the place, first one 36 days, this cycle haven't had a positive OPK so not sure if olvuated then pink CM today CD19 so looks like AF starting again.

Obviously everyones body different but I think around 3 months to become 'normal' is quite common. On the pill for so long don't know what my natural cycles were like.

Taking seven seas preconception and trying to be patient and prepare for a wait for a BFP then if it happens sooner will be a nice suprise. Kept doing HPTs first cycle as technically was 'late' but not going to put myself through that every month so going to assume a 36 day cycle and test if AF doesn't arrive by then - easier said than done! x

Thanks for replies. I'm taking folic acid and b12. Nothing else. Has been slightly stressful at work and I'm only good at identifying it after the stress has passed!! Plus annoying when you getting regular 38 day cycles and then nothing!! I know I need to patient!!
