How long after stopping mini pill?

Hi guys,
Just wondering if anyone can give me some advice.

DH and I have stopped the mini pill 5 weeks ago so that we can start charting ovulation etc. to try for a girl this time.

I haven't had my period yet and am not panicking (sort of) but am just wondering how long after I stop the mini pill should I get my period?

I ask (sorry TMI) because there have been a couple of pull out incidents.
Also with DS it only took us 3 weeks of being off the pill to get pregnant.

Please help ladies....

If you are breastfeeding you may not get your period for a few months yet. The mini pill is just insurance. Though I didn't use the mini pill I didn't get my period for about a year with my kids.
