Picked up my script for the mini pill today, but the pharmacist must have been in a hurry to shut up shop cause he just gave me the tablets and didn't talk me through anything, which I thought they were supposed to do? Anyway it wasn't until I got home and read the insert in the box that I actually had questions..typical..lol.

It says to start taking it on the first day of your next period...seeing as I have no idea when that is going to be, do I have to wait until that happens or can I just start taking it straight away? I thought I could just start straight away, but don't want to do the wrong thing if that is what the instructions say.

Also, before I fell pregnant I was just on the normal pill (3 weeks of active pills then 1 week of sugar pills), with the mini pill all the tablets are the same- how do I know when I will get my "period", or how does that side of it work??
