Frustrated...coming off depo...

I had my last depo shot mid Dec. AF returned in March around when my depo would be due, so we started TTC. My cycles have not been normal, so I did some research and quickly found out the depo takes a long time to wear off. Considering I'm extra sensitive to any medication, this is bad news for me. I've been using OPKs and I've taken a few HCGs just incase...I got one BF FALSE positive in May. So that was a huge disappointment. Even though I wasn't pregnant, I had some hope because once AF came I finally came close to having a real cycle 22 days, rather than 10-16. I finally thought I was getting back on track with having a longer cycle and this time my AF was full blown. Before there would be some spotting or light bleeding. I would only need a panty liner, if that. My latest AF, came in like a lion and went out like a lamb LOL. So I had high hopes that this was it! Then like a knife in my back, a mild AF came on Tuesday. It was very strange. Tuesday night had light bleeding, Wednesday had nothing, then this morning spotting. There hasn't been any BDing during these 3 days either, so I assume another screwed up cycle. I'm super duper frustrated with my body right now. And I probably wouldn't be so impatient if it weren't for the fact my husband is going back and forth about the timing of our last child. I am so excited and ready to have our 4th and last child and if he changes his mind while my cycles are whacked out I'm going to be horribly disappointed.
