Feeling a little discouraged

Lisa
Hi guys,
My and my husband have been together for about 5 years and only married for a few months.
I stopped taking the pill a few months before we got married to get it out of my system ready to start our own little family. We've been trying for a few months now and no sign as of yet.
I would just like to know if anyone knows how long the pill can stay in your system for or maybe how long it took for you to conceive after stopping contraception? 
I would just like to hear that there is hope for us in our early days of ttc :)
Thanks xx
