    Welcome. This is my first month off the pill. I wasn't on it long but I'm TTC right away.  I also starting taking prenatal vitamins before I went off the pill. You can start those right away.

    Start your prenatal vitamins ASAP. They should be taken by any women of childbearing age, and studies have shown that taking them up to a year before TTC can reduce your risk of premature birth.

    Talk to your dr about when to go off the pill. Opinions vary.

    Good luck.
