I had two miscarriages in 2008 and in May 2009 I stopped taking birth control (the patch). Since I've come off the birth control, my periods are very light and only last 2-3 days with minimal cramping.

I've been charting my BBT on fertilityfriend.com for 4 months and my luteal phase is questionable as my temperature doesn't stay elevated post-ovulation. Is the fact that my periods are lighter and shorter any indication of a bigger problem that's related to LPD?

I'm nearing the 6 month mark for when I can get my progesterone levels checked (the dr. wants me to be off of birth control for six months before he'll perform this test?) but I'm anxious and worried that I will never get pregnant.

Please lend me your thoughts and advice.
