TTC - Have a question...
I am TTC and went off Birth Control about 3 months ago (after 10 + years). My periods have been so weird??? Sorry if TMI but around 29-31 days it starts off light and brownish for a day or two. Then I have a 'real period' for about 1 day and it either disappears, or returns to the light/brownsih again.
Is this normal?
Will this weird period affect my TTC process?
I haven't officially started yet but starting soon.
I have been lurking and want to start posting more actively now. Thanks ladies

Re: TTC - Have a question...
It takes a while for your period to come back to normal....not sure if it will affect TTC, but don't see why it should, but your body is still a bit wacky after the pill....don't sweat it!

What weeks do you check to see if your ovulating. Since my period is so weird & short, when would I use the sticks/kit to see if I am ovulating?
Thanks!

Re: TTC - Have a question...
ekerd was having a sale, so i bought a BUNCH of boxes, and based on how long my cycle was, i went through a ton in the first month just to see the time frame...
You usually ovulate based on how long your entire cycle is, not how long AF is- there is a little chart that comes with the OPKs that tell you the recommended date to start testing... I O'ed really late- since my cycles became so long- but everyone is different...
