Light periods after coming off the pill

I've been on the pill for most of my adult life. I can't really remember what my periods were like pre-pill, but don't recall them being particularly hellish or overly heavy.

I've been off the pill since January and am TTC. I have had three periods since then, the first was really my withdrawal bleed and the last two have been what I would deem as quite light - I could get away with leaving the same pad/tampon on all day (I don't!!) and have only been lasting 2 days max and with a bit of spotting the day before and after.

Just looking for experiences- has anyone else had this? Was this your "normal" or did it change the longer you were off the pill? How quickly did it take you to conceive?

To add as well - my last two cycles have been very short, 23-23 days. The first one off the pill was 29 days!
