Ahh Leasha, I’ve been thinking about this WRT me a bit lately too.
I went on the pill when I was 16 due to very heavy, painful and irregular AF. Then after 13 years on it, I came off it to TTC. AF was crazy irregular, I had a MC, then four months went by with no AF. I started all the “investigations” and found out I was pregnant (only just) with DS. BFed DS, a few more AFs, pregnant with DD. I’m still BFing DD but now, for the very first time in my whole life, AF comes semi regularly, it’s not too bad, and I finally feel like I am getting to know my body and my cycles. And I really love it, I love that my body works and I really appreciate it. DH is desperate for me to go back on the pill, because he’s not keen on the alternative methods of contraception, hey neither am I, but NO WAY. I’m just not going to do that anymore, it just doesn’t feel right.
The hugest of hugs to those of you struggling with this stuff atm.
