yea i dont know how ppl wait 6 weeks, we made it to about 4 both times. lol. if you are protected using condoms or something then 6 weeks is good cos its the magic number when your body is all back to normal as far as hormones and stuff go. just remember the mini pill isnt very effective and only protects 21ish hours a day so whatever you do never ever forget to take it bang on the same time every day. and try and get something more reliable once you stop bfing :)]]> Fri, 22 Oct 2010 09:38:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=36349&PID=1182837&title=minipill-when-to-start#1182837 <![CDATA[mini-pill, when to start? : Yeah your fine to take it now,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=36349&PID=1182721&title=minipill-when-to-start#1182721 Author: Shezamumof3

Don't wait for your period - it might be months away. You can start it whenever you feel ready, my MW also suggested around the 6 weeks mark was as early as you'd want to start. I think I started at just over 5 weeks cos I wanted some action

My PP bleeding had stopped by then, but I did get a period every second week for the first 8 weeks on the minipill ]]> Thu, 21 Oct 2010 19:09:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=36349&PID=1182496&title=minipill-when-to-start#1182496 <![CDATA[mini-pill, when to start? : I just got told to start it at...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=36349&PID=1182461&title=minipill-when-to-start#1182461 Author: Babe

iv just got my mw to prescribe the mini pill but dont really know when i should start taking it??

 

TMI TO FOLLOW

I have got brownish/red smeared discharge and have since about 4 weeks PP.

So my question is do i start now, wait for this "bleeding" to be totally stopped or wait till my next period (if i get one as am breastfeeding)???

 

thanks for the help ladies
