Anyone else about to take the plunge and stop bc pills?

[teachermummy2b]

Ive read another thread with interest about ttc after the pill & saw that a couple of posters were about to stop their bc pills so thought a new thread might be in order!
Im getting married in August & currently finishing my last packet of Yasmin. Excited & nervous all at the same time!

So who's with me?

Xx

Thanks Freedom! Hoping this is the start of a cascade of BFPs for the group! Cannot recommend the Conceive Plus lubricant highly enough.

justyouwait that is fantastic news im so excited for you!!! Where can i get conceive plus? Ive also read that the pre seed lube is good. Hopefully there will be more bfps next wk too.

im not taking anything to regulate, just seven seas ttc vitamins

Thanks catnip! You had more confidence in me getting a BFP than I did this month!

I ordered my conceive plus from amazon so it arrived almost straightaway. It is £12 per tube but guess its worth paying if you are determined to try everything. I did look at preseed too but something about the CP reviews made me go for that one. It's the only thing I can think of after 4mths solid trying with no results, followed by success after a pretty hit and miss month of trying.

Thanks catnip and just u wait. I order conceive plus and am using hubbie is a fan. Not sure yet is it's worked I guess technically it could have but to early to know :-)

Right im getting straight on amazon! I can test from tomorrow so hopefully will be graduating with you justyouwait although im not v sure of my chances this month. I certainly don't feel any different

by the way, i never heard anything from clear blue after being told i was chosen for the trial- maybe its all a swizz to get peoples details!

I'll get on Amazon too and try this next month when I've finish my pills...exciting times xx

Love it catnip and lovebug. I didn't hear anything from clear blue either !

Aww would love some of you to get your BFPs this month too. We have started a 'due in May' thread - two members of the group are both expecting their 5th! It doesn't feel the same without you guys, so will have to make sure I stick around on this thread too!

I have calculated that my EDD is 4th May (May the fourth be with you )

Good luck to everyone still waiting, when is everyone due to test?!

Hi There! Is it ok if I join? I'm TTC#1 came off the pill after 10 years in June but got my first real period/cycle on July 28th so not sure how long my cycle will be but hopping for the best! Goodluck to everyone

I'm wondering if it will take a while to get a proper cycle once I stop the mini pill so thinking whether I should stop sooner rather than later? But then I heard a few of my friend got pregnant straight away after coming off the pill and with my work/study commitments I can't really have a due date before June...so many decisions!

Gd luck jane, will keep fingers x'd for u. Love bugs it's hard if u defo can't b preg b4 June could u come off pill and use another method? It's so hard to know some fall immediately I came off pill in May and am having problems getting a regular cycle and wish I had come off it earlier!

Thanks katiebear I think that might be the way forward as I have no idea what I'll be like coming off the pill having been on it for 15 years! I'm looking forward to being pill free and letting my body sort itself out but hoping it doesn't take us too long to conceive as I am soooo broody! X

Sadly I think I'm out! I can feel cramps from AF coming :( ahhhh why is it so hard. Good luck to everyone else! Hope there are some BFP :)

Hey Jane, don't give up! I still have no pregnancy symptoms and got my BFP. Others are saying they still have cramps like they're about to start AF anytime and also got their BFP. Still possible!

Thankyou! Justwaitandsee. Ok. Certain it's my AF - I just feel like we got in on all the right times but I've had no pergnancy symptoms or any implantation bleeding only cramp! Is that what you had? Congrats to you and the other ladies such exciting news :)

I've had literally nothing. I was really tired last week but I'd just finished a big project at work so put it down to that. No bleeding, no cramps. No sore boobs. I think everyone's different. I certainly wasn't expecting a BFP when I took the tests. Previous months I've sat and stared at the test, this time I was barely paying attention and then all of a sudden there was those two bright pink, unmistakable lines!

Well no AF for me so far. Im going to buy a test this eve. Keep yr fingers crossed for me ladies!

Oh well that's comforting to know hey! I read so many blogs where people say all the early signs they had I've had none and it's great to hear you say that! I only got off the pill in June and got my first real period on the 28th of July so I had hopped I was a 28 day cycle but nothing yet took a test today and got a BFN but still no period I feel like it's coming tho cramps feel like the normal ones I get. Best of luck tho to all those trying and congrats to all those who a BFP! Keep us updated on how you went and what symptoms you had

I appreciate you replying as well! I don't have much family support or anyone to talk to about it so it's comforting to come on here and talk to other people about it all

Good luck Catnip, hello to everyone - I can test in two days, very unlikely but no AF from coming of the pill & my body is playing tricks with me as feel a bit something...which I hope is AF so then can get on with normal cycle & knowing at least when to try!

Thanks next chapter :) i think its unlikely i am pregnant but still hopeful. Good luck to you too

Keeping my fingers crossed catnip and everyone else too!!

Another thing to say, is that I am pretty sure that prior to the pill I had a regular 28 day cycle (although at 18 I admittedly didn't pay much attention) but since coming off the pill my cycles were around 30/31 days and periods were MUCH shorter and lighter (around 4 days)

Goodluck catnip & nextchapterabouttostart! Hope you both get a BFP :) I'm still waiting for AF it can't be to far away as I now have back aches and cramps.

It was a BFN as suspected, still disappointed and unreasonably grumpy towards poor DH though :(

Was also going to say- i have nothing but respect for people who have been trying for years to get pregnant. Not sure how they cope with the disappointment and keep going. Ive only been trying two mths and here i am bitching about it!
