Hello Ladies -

My fiance and I have been together for 6 1/2 years. I was on the pill for almost 9 years and just recently came off. I initally went on the pill to help regulate my cycle. The reason I came off is for 2 reasons. 1 - I wanted to give my body a break after being on the pill for so long and 2 - we decided to start trying to get pregnant. Our inital thought was it will happen when it's supposed to happen, but it's been almost 6 months and nothing. I have no clue when I'm ovulating b/c I have such an irregular period (I have a 15 to 18 day cycle vs. the normal 27 to 29). I get my period almost every 2 weeks so I have no clue when the right time to try is. I obviosly can't use an Ovulation Calendar so any suggestions or anyone out there w/ the same issue??? Thanks
