Anyone else go off pill mid-pack?
I stopped BC mid-pack before I read doing so isn't a great idea. I now know why they say this...I had very light withdrawal bleeding for 3 days and now I'm on CD 44 with no signs of AF in sight. 
Tests are BFN. I know it's just a waiting game and am hoping it doesn't take months, like it has for some, but I'm just wondering if others could share their experiences going off the pill mid-pack. Did it take others a long time for AF to come back? Did anyone get pregnant before AF was supposed to show up? If so, what cycle day did you get a BFP?

I wasn't on the pill, but rather an IUD. When it came out I had withdrawal heavy bleeding for 3.5 weeks, then it took 63 days for my next AF.
I think every body is different in how long it takes to get back in a normal cycle.
I actually bought moon cycle tea to try to encourage AF. It seemed to help or maybe I just had great timing. Two days into the box and AF visited. I started using it every month after that to keep things regular. Bonus: my bleeding days were always less on cycles I drank it every day.
Best of luck and I hope everything works out. Sorry I can't give an experience with the pill specifically. I think abrupt stopping of any hormone is hard on the body.
