I stopped taking the pill at the beginning of November because my husband and I wanted to start trying for a baby after the holidays. I almost never had breakthrough bleeding while I was on the pill (which I took for about 5 years), and my periods didn't restart in November or December (I know it can sometimes take a while after you stop taking BC). About 10 days ago, I started having mild cramps off and on--nothing major, but noticeable. In the past, I'd occasionally get cramps a day or two before my period. But so far, no period. Is this normal? Something that happens after you go off the pill? Is this just a slow readjustment period for my body? This seems strange and I'm a little afraid I screwed my body up by being on BC for so long.View Thread
