CD is cycle day
so I am on CD13 today
Your cycle starts the first day of your period - it's kinda backwards to how you think it should be but that's how they count it. So 13 days ago my period started and now hopefully I'm gearing up for ovulation.
So someone who says I'm on CD 89 had a period start 89 days ago and is still waiting for another one to come.
As for getting pregnant right after coming off the pill. Yes it is possible. However, you'll find that many of the women in this thread have not had that happen. That's why we are here. I haven't ovulated since coming off the pill in March unless I did in April.. so if we count an ovulation in April I haven't had an ovulation in 6 months. I've taken Provera to force a period to come so that I can reset my CD counter but that's about it.
Without an ovulation there is no chance of getting pregnant so it's quite frustrating. If you aren't sure if you are ovulating then I would start taking your basal body temperature. For more information on this I would visit www.fertilityfriend.com they have lots of information and even a course on how to take your temperature etc. I completely understand the frustrations of all those women in my situation. If you want to see what a basal body temperature (BBT) chart looks like click on my linked temping chart in my signature where it says CD13
