just got off merina

Hi all, I'm new to this, but have a question.  I was on the merina for 4 years, and  had it removed on march 5th.  I had light spotting for 2 days then nothing.  Then, on the 14th, I started lightly bleeding, and until the 19th, I had what I would say was the heaviest bleeding ever!  So, I figured this was my period.  The night of the 19th, my "period" was to barely spotting, so my husband and I had unprotected sex.  Two days later,(I take my bbt) my temperature jumped.  It has been up and down on my graph for the past 3 weeks, but I have had 3 high temps in a row.  Is it possible the bleeding was not my period?  I'm confused bc I've heard of heavy bleeding right after removal, but 2 weeks later?  We were hoping to get pregnant at the end of this year, and had unprotected sex thinking I cant get pregnant on my period?  If I am, I will be so excited, it just wasn't exactly the way we planned it:)  I will test in 2 weeks, but my mind is going crazy!  Also, my husband is possibly changing jobs, which means changing insurance.  It will be from one group plan to another, but am hoping it wont be considered "pre-existing" and not cover me.  Im just stressed and hoping that maybe someone has experienced something like this?  Thank you!

But do you think it is possible that I ovulated?  My temperature is still up as of thismorning.

it can take up to 3 or more months for your period to return to normal. Spotting and irregular bleeding is normal.
