This video is going to focus more on the technical side of things that I did once I came off the pill in order to conceive (the doctors I saw, the tests I had done, and the tracking/charting I did while TTC). I will speak more about the emotional side (like how we knew we were ready for a baby) in a future video! In Sept 2020, I decided to go off the pill. Coming off the pill at 29, I was ready to begin the process of getting my natural cycle back on track, and my thought at that time was that I wanted to wait until the following September (2021) to begin trying to conceive. As you all know, we got pregnant in April 2021, so this plan obviously took a turn and we started trying much earlier than expected. Immediately after I came off the pill, I set up an appointment with my doctor. I did some bloodwork to check for antibodies (to see if I was up-to-date on certain vaccines) and Michael and I also did genetic testing. Because it came back that I needed two different vaccine boosters (MMR and Varicella), I was told to NOT try to get pregnant during this time since they are live vaccines. Fast forward to October (one month later), and I decided that I was officially ready to start trying. I decided that it would be better to start trying then and get pregnant SOONER rather than start trying when we initially said and then have that timeline pushed back if we were to encounter any issues. However, there were some road blocks during this time as I still needed to get my period back! In addition, my health was worsening during this period - I was getting terrible migraines daily and found out that I had celiac disease! There were a few things that I did immediately after coming off the pill. The first was tracking. I began tracking everything about my ovulation and cycle. I took my basal body temperature every morning, used OTC ovulation predictor kits, used digital OPKs, and checked my daily cervical fluid. My temperatures seemed normal, but I would ovulate about every 40 days (instead of every 28 days). Although it was not normal length-wise, the fact that I WAS ovulating at all was a good sign. These long ovulation windows lasted until December, when I began to experience all these crazy health issues, inducing stress, and causing my period to disappear completely. I went back to my OBGYN and got a progesterone supplement to ‘induce’ my period. Around January 2021, I cut out gluten completely, my headaches went away and my period came back on its own. During this time I got the greenlight to begin trying! One of the biggest questions I got was which days I had sex to get pregnant, and honestly, it’s going to be different for everyone because we all ovulate on different days! When I began to hit that ovulation stage, we started having sex every day throughout my fertile window. Ultimately, all the planning and prepping paid off, and we got pregnant that month! After two weeks, my temperature remained elevated instead of dropping back down, which was a sign of pregnancy! I hope this video was helpful for those who are either trying to conceive or just want to learn more about their cycles.
