hi,
the bleeding you had is possibly withdrawal bleeding, during pill usage woman will usually have anovulatory cycles,
so after stopping of the pills the ovulation has to return for fertility, this time will vary from 2 weeks to few months,
so you better track your ovulation with kits and according to that plan intercourse which will increase the chance of pregnancy.
take care.
