    Welcome and wow you are organised!! I have come off Microgynon, and any internet research I did just said everyone's cycle is different and to wait and see basically! I tried Cerazette once to come off Microgynon as i had migraines, but C really didn't agree with me I just bled the whole time and gave up after a month!

    I was on Microgynon for about 10 years, and just happened to mention to GP when getting a repeat prescription that I get about 2 migraines a year. I always have done, and they run in my family. In fact mine are so mild compared to everyone elses, that I've never considered it a problem. the GP then refused to give me any more microgynon, and I had to move to a mini-pill :mad: can't remember what the first one was called, I was only on it for about 2 months as I turned into a hormonal nutjob! :eek: then they moved me to Cerazette, which has been fine, once I got used to the lack of periods. First 6 months I spent a fortune on PG tests, just to make sure!

    I feel like I've been waiting forever to TTC, I think that's why I've planned it all out. We've been married for 5 years last week, and my sister that got married about 3 months after us already has 2 girls (3.5 and 18 months) went to see them on Friday and was hard pushed not to smuggle niece no2 home in my handbag, she's such a cutie! Still by waiting til spring next year we'll be able to afford to buy the things we need without juggling debt repayments, and the nursery fees won't be such a burden etc.

    In terms of cost I am going to be a cruel mother lol. All a baby needs is 2 boobs, a bottom draw with a pillow and some sheets to lie on and some old towels as nappys. I have it sorted ... right ... LOL (Til I walk in those shops and want to spend spend spend!!!)

    heehee :) my big sister had to sleep in a drawer until she was 6 weeks old as her cot wasn't ready - needed varnishing/painting, and she arrived early, into weeks of heavy rain so it didn't get painted until there was a dry weekend for it to be done outside! She was most put out to hear that when sister no4 was expecting :rotfl:

    Aw Rebekah I am sure when it is actually happening he will agree it is all worth it :D and if you are organised and fair on each other, i think people can still have their own time and lives to an extent. Maybe I sound horribly naive as I am childless lol

    Well I have come on to say who was I to chart my AF against what normally happens when I have been on the pill for years....AF is here :D today :D never been so happy to be able to say that!! Can't believe I have been off pill for THREE weeks and my body seems to be sorting itself out already....here's hoping it's a good sign!
