Anyone else recently off BCP and seeing (likely false) signs everywhere?

Regardless of whether or not I resume a normal cycle length this first round or not (I know a lot of women coming off BCP have extremely long first cycles), I think the earliest I could possibly O was this past weekend.

I've been having minor, transient cramps that remind me of the O cramps I used to get prior to BCP, but I don't know if that's what they are or if I'm gassy and reading into things too much.

I've also had a small amount of coloured discharge the last 2 days (pink yesterday, brown today). It's no so much that I'll see it on a second wipe, but enough that it continued this morning. It doesn't smell like AF discharge and the colour isn't quite the same. I don't know if this is further withdrawal bleeds, random adjustment spotting, an incredibly improbable implant bleed, or just a sign that we've been BD like bunnies all week.

Anyone else TTC and recently off BCP being driven nuts by things like this? Any opinions on what these are?

Iam two months off BCP now, but the first month was pretty much hell for me. My boobs were huge and sore and I had pretty much every symptom of being pregnant. But.... I wasn't. It's pretty common to experience these things when you first get off and while your body is adjusting to the swing in hormones.

Most likely, the spotting is just due to your hormones adjusting. GL!

Ummm yes! I just finished my first cycle off bcp and it was insane! Cramping, pain during sex, extremely tender breasts, bloated sick feeling! Tonnes of symptoms! But obviously they were all due to going off bcp since just got my af today!
