Apologies all ttc'ers this is a rant more than anything!

I'm 27, married for over a year. I've been going through on and off phases of feeling broody but don't feel quite ready for a baby, and so am not actively ttc, even though if I fell pregnant accidentally of course I'd be thrilled!

I've just got a nagging feeling in my mind that DH and I should at least stop being careful (have been using withdrawal method since I came off the pill in Aug). The main reason I feel this way is that my periods have been so light and short since stopping the pill, when they were heavy and long before. I'm convincing myself there's something wrong, and so at least if we stopped being careful now, in a year I'd be inclined to do something about it.

If I could guarantee a time to get pregnant I don't think we'd start trying until at least later in the year, if not next year, but I feel like I should at least see what happens now.

I'm sure I sound way too immature to be a mum! I'm even annoying DH with my indecisive-ness, change my mind every other day!

You're still young, I think give it a year and wait until you're sure. It's probably not a good idea to have a baby just to see if you can.

I'd second what oyster is saying, wait if you're not completely sure, not only as having a little one will be a massive life change but also the whole process of TTC can be a bit of an emotional roller coaster!
Good luck whatever you decide Smile
