New and Have one question!

Hi I am new here and my DH and I have just decided to start trying. I quit taking the pill about three weeks ago and still have not gotten AF. Can someone tell me if this is normal???
Thank You Amy Jo

Yep...I think that can be considered totally normal. I went off BCP in March and my cycles have been the following lengths: 38, 39, and 34 days. So, for me it took about 5.5 weeks for AF to come the first go 'round. This month I O'd earlier and my cycle will probably be about 30-31 days. I know it's hard waiting...beleive me! But your cycles will most likely start getting back to normal before too long (assuming they were *normal* before BCP?). At around 4 weeks into my first non-BCP cycle I started using HPTs and they were all neg. I called my doctor and he said if I hadn't had AF by about week 6 to call him back. At that point he probably would have given me some meds to help kickstart AF.
Anyway...that's my two cents! I hope it helps some :)
Welcome to the boards...and good luck TTC!
