Trying to Get Pregnant

New here..need advice

Hi all im Ashley Im 32, im new to this whole thing. I am getting married January 19th. We would like to try to start trying to have a baby right after. Since I am on birth control I will know my period will come on January 2nd. I was just wondering if it is okay to stop my birth control after I get that period. Will I have bleeding or spotting after stopping it? Because I am trying to avoid having that during my wedding and Honeymoon and trying to avoid starting a new pack. Or another option i was thinking acter this pack is finished this month maybe i should stop then and for the new few months let my period come natural and get regulated. all the reading im doing seems to say it could take a few months after coming off to be regular again. Just wanted thoughts and opinions from you ladies!Thank you!

    Please lurk.  Threads about yourself are frowned upon on this forum.  Please feel free to introduce yourself and join in once you start trying.  In the mean time there is a board called babies on the brain or something like that for before you are trying.

    to answer your question, in my experience it has taken over 3 months before to get cycles to regulate off of birth control and I bleed and spot with hormonal changes

    ^^^WSS and OP, why not just stop now and save yourself the trouble. Use this time to get to know your body and learn how to basal body temp, etc. if you haven't already. It could take up to a year to conceive so keep that in mind. 
    People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.

    How I feel all of the time.

    I didn't have any bleeding or spotting when I got off the pill. I stopped at the end of a pack. I ovulated the following month. Good luck to you!
