New and nervous

I am excited to join this board as DH and I are planning on TTC #2 soon! I am just waiting for AF to show up one more time (any minute now). But I am a little nervous. Before we had DD, the BCP I was taking were ok, but they made me a bit more emotional. So after DD was born, my Dr switched my prescription and I have been on them ever since (a few months now). But my worry is that my cycles are going to be all out of whack. With my last pills, they kept me so regular that my period would start the same time of day on the day expected. I would get the exact same symptoms every time (again, same time of day) each month. But with these pills, my period still comes, but I am not sure what day it is going to show up. It isn't nearly as predictable, and I don't like that! I thrive on consistency. And if something is going to be off, I like to know in advance, so I can plan accordingly...
Anyways, I am just worried that we are going to have a hard time TTC if my cycles really are off. I am sure this is just me reacting way to soon, but I am just nervous I guess. Anybody else have any similar situations?

I know exactly how you feel! My cycles were also like clockwork, it was very easy to conceive both my sons (both were conceived on the first cycle), but after my second son was born, I also had to change BCP and things got way out of whack! When I got off it to start TTC #3, my cycles weren't regular at all! The one thing that really helps me is charting my temperature. It really lets you know when you O so you don't always wonder if you O'd or not. My cycles are finaly getting more regular, but this last one is way weird! But by temping, I know that I O'd only on CD 24 (not between 12-15 like I usually do). So now, even though I would technically be due for AF on the 21rst (if I would have O'd on time) I know that I am not due till the 31rst which reduces alot of stress since now I don't think that AF is late! I hope this is not too confusing and that it helps you a little... If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask! You are not alone! Good luck to you!
