Anyone else fresh off the pill!?

Hi ladies!
As my DH and i habe decided to TTC I took the last pill in my packet on 17th December and had my breakthrough bleed start on the 22nd and end on the 26th. Now the wait begins to see whether my cycle snaps back to normal and of course whether I concieve! I had been on microgynon for circa 3 years.

Is anyone else in a similar position and entering 2019 pill free!? I thought this would be a good place to track and share our experiences as they happen!

@Sunshine8888 AF is due tomorrow/Sunday so not going to test again until she’s late! Feeling a bit weird and emotional today and I still have my sore nips so 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

DaniX91 · 03/08/2019 10:43

@whatsthecraic91 oooh this sounds good! I'm so excited for u to test! X

whatsthecraic91 · 03/08/2019 14:56

@DaniX91 I’m so scared to test again honestly I’ve completely lost the plot this cycle, I said I wasn’t going to obsess but here I am 😂 feeling super weird today like the feeling you get when you drop on a rollercoaster. Don’t know what that means - still no AF tho!

DaniX91 · 03/08/2019 20:48

@whatsthecraic91 are u guna test in the morning?!x

whatsthecraic91 · 04/08/2019 02:58

Q@DaniX91 I’m just home from a night on the piss 😳😳 prob be Monday before I Test I think!’

Sunshine8888 · 04/08/2019 11:35

Hope your head isn’t too sore this morning @whatsthecraic91 - sometimes a night out to take our minds off things is just what we need but I hate the hangover the next day!!

whatsthecraic91 · 04/08/2019 14:45

@Sunshine8888 im actually 100% I can’t believe it as I usually suffer 🤣 still no AF 🤞🏼

Moonstone12 · 04/08/2019 17:03

@whatsthecraic91 will you test tomorrow?? I feel like I need to know lol. I've been following this thread for a while and I've everything crossed for you :)

whatsthecraic91 · 04/08/2019 18:50

@Moonstone12 aww thank you! Yes I am definitely going to test in the morning 😊

Beddie11 · 04/08/2019 20:37

@whatsthecraic91 good luck for the morning! Ive got a test im thinking of using in the morning too xx

Moonstone12 · 04/08/2019 21:36

@Beddie11 @whatsthecraic91 I don't know whether to test tomorrow or not.

Stopped pill almost 6 weeks ago and no period, no spotting and any test I've taken is negative. Not tested since Thursday. Aghhh I don't know 🤔 😱

Positivity2019 · 04/08/2019 21:46

Thanks for the welcome @Sunshine8888.
Good luck to those of you testing tomorrow!! I’m excited to be entering my fertile period near the end of next week. Hopefully the week goes fast.

Beddie11 · 04/08/2019 22:05

@positivity2019 thank you, im sure it will be negative but its just sat in my cupboard and i cant help myself lol.
@moonstone12 oh thats odd.. did u have a withdrawal bleed? Xx

Moonstone12 · 04/08/2019 22:13

@Beddie11 I've had no bleed at all. Not even spotting :(

Positivity2019 · 04/08/2019 22:13

@Beddie11 hey I’ve definitely been there where I’ve taken a test when I know it’s prob negative. You’ll feel better doing it.
@Moonstone12 that must be so frustrating. I had a similar thing waiting for a bleed and as I waited I just did a test once a week to check. I felt the exact way, frustrated with the not knowing. It became an obsession to either have a positive test or my period. Thankfully my period arrived and yours will too, or else a BFP which would be awesome.

whatsthecraic91 · 04/08/2019 23:16

@Beddie11 @Moonstone12 it must be so frustrating not having AF regularly.

Thank you! Just hope I can hold my wee all night I have been on the water all day after last nights antics!

whatsthecraic91 · 05/08/2019 07:05

BFN my body is playing tricks on me!

Moonstone12 · 05/08/2019 08:35

@whatsthecraic91 bfn here too :( how are you feeling?

Guess I'll keep trying and maybe af will show up soon 🤞🏻

DaniX91 · 05/08/2019 10:12

@whatsthecraic91 aww imagine sorry that it was bfn, u aren't out until AF shows tho! X

DaniX91 · 05/08/2019 10:12

Sunshine8888 · 05/08/2019 13:10

@whatsthecraic91 ahh no I’m so sorry but don’t give up hope just yet! Did you use a FRER?

@Moonstone12 that’s a bit confusing that you’ve had no bleed at all. It took me 45 days to get AF when I came off the pill. I’ve no idea what length my cycles are atm so it’s frustrating and don’t even know for sure if I’m ovulating as I haven’t tried OPKs yet having read you should wait for at least two natural cycles after stopping the pill.

@Beddie11 did you test?

@Positivity2019 also hoping the next couple of weeks go fast!! I’d like to know how long this second cycle is ... or if I did get a BFP out of nowhere that would be amazing! 🤞🏻

whatsthecraic91 · 05/08/2019 17:23

Kept getting notifications about new messages but couldn’t get on all day for some reason!

@Sunshine8888 yea used a FRER

@Moonstone12 really pissed off tbh CD31 now! Wish AF would just show up now

Positivity2019 · 05/08/2019 19:54

@Sunshine8888 putting out positive vibes for an out of the blue BFP!!! That’s goes for everyone!!!

JaggyJumper · 06/08/2019 08:13

Hopefully a BFP to those who are still waiting!

As of Saturday I’m on cycle 3. Hopefully this is the lucky one
