Newbie Help!

Hi everyone! I am new to this board. We have recently decided to start ttc. I just got off birth control last month. My last period was in November. I was going to start trying to chart using fertility friend but I have no idea how long my cycles are since I did not get my period this month. I realize it takes awhile to start ovulating after being on birth control. Does anyone know how long? But even when it does occur I won't know what days. I am kind of lost on where to start with all this. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Re: Newbie Help!

  • Everyone is different when they come off birth control. No one here can tell you. It can take 6 months to 1 year to regulate after coming off birth control. 

    If you want to start charting on Fertility Friend, I recommend reading their tutorials. They really helped me. Also, Taking Charge of Your Fertility is a very helpful book. 

    The only way to know EXACTLY when you ovulate is to temp every day. Again, read the tutorials.

    Welcome!
