Intro and mini pill question (warning: child mentioned)

1inthehopper

Hi all,
Wanted to introduce myself briefly. I'm 34, not quite 35 but soon- found the TTC board to be ridiculously drama-filled and I'm too old for that nonsense so I'm hoping you'll allow me in a little "early"

And now you will quickly learn how technology is not my friend! Only half my post posted even though I went back in and edited and saved?? Anyway maybe you guys can see the rest not just first sentence? Have a 3 year and trying for #2. My question was about the mini pill- experiences coming off it? When did period come back etc?? And thanking everyone for being so kind- not snarky and full of ridiculous rules! First post FAIL right here lol!

Welcome!! What's the mini-pill? I've taken 'low dose' bc pills ... Is that the same thing?

Mini pill is the progesterone only pill as opposed to the combo pill most people take. The mini pill is what you take when you are breastfeeding. I have to stay on that one because of migraine auras. Less effective than normal pill, if you take it more than 3 hours late it is considered a missed pill- yikes right?!

Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone!

Welcome! I checked out some other boards first before joining this one and this one really is the best! There's no drama or snarky remarks here. Glad you could join us!!

I took that after having my son while pumping. It's been over 3 years but it came back pretty quick after I stopped. I believe within a week or 2. Once I was done pumping I had to go to a regular pill.
