thanks so much for that jaxi - and it's great to know that there are other people in a very similar situation! i've been so impatient because i knew i was going to go off the bcp but i wanted to wait until the end of the packet because i'd read that stopping in the middle could mess around with getting a regular cycle back.

i think i'd like to chart because when off the bcp my cycles were a bit irregular & i think the charting would help with that.

there's something about this whole process that makes me very impatient!
