Hi all, new member here!

We are ttc but only came off the pill three weeks ago so might be waiting a while!

My sex drive has went through the roof, I think my husband is pretty happy about this haha

Any experiences on when cycles tent to go back to normal would be great as this is our first time trying and ive been on the pill (or jag) for 9 years!

Hello and welcome toots. I'd just look on this time as practice, enjoy your new sex drive, have a few drunken nights out with your DH and don't worry too much about cycles or dates just yet Smile

My husband and I are the same! Came off pill 3 weeks ago. Very excited to see what happens next!

Your sp right jilted I think I got a bit excited too soon haha.

We have a family holiday booked for May (going to Florida) so even if we arent pg by then it wont be a big deal. I'd still like to be though! :)

Looking forward to my cycle going back to normal but until then we will enjoy this mad sex drive Wink

Toots it varies, some people come off the pill and their cycles are fine immediately, some people take months and more to settle, some people have cycles that seem to settle fast and they go haywire before actually sorting themselves out. Mine took about 6 months

Toots, I came off the pill on the last day of our honeymoon in late January.... And I haven't had a period yet.

First baby is due this week Grin

It varies for everyone, but be prepared for it to happen far sooner than you imagined!

Enjoy the sex drive too, ours has disappeared now that I resemble a whale Wink

What a nice story jalexis!

Was it hard to work out your due date etc?

Due dates aren't usually too much if a worry toots as most hospitals do a dating scan at around 12 weeks.

Jalexis · 18/11/2013 18:48

It was yep, and I had to push my GP for an early dating scan... I'm glad I did because the 12 week scan they had me booked in for would have been too late to carry out certain tests (I was 14+ weeks as it turned out!).

Planning to come off next month have always had periods on pill and on implant (had it for 6 years then been on pill for last 18 months since got married) all been regular so hoping they stay like that after!!

That's so lovely jalexis! I came off the pill about 3 weeks ago and had a withdrawal bleed pretty quick (I stopped mid pack so wasn't sure what would happen) I'm really really hoping that af won't come!
