I had my IUD removed today after having it for 6 months. I forgot to ask my Dr. how soon after removal I can resume having intercourse. Anyone have any clue?

by mandyjune1987, Oct 27, 2009 06:50PM
To: enb22, everyone

if u are new to ttc, you should go on to www.babycenter.com and use the Ovulation Calculator....

here is some info and away to no if u are ovulation and when

Change in cervical mucus. As your cycle progresses, your cervical mucus increases in volume and changes texture. The changes reflect your body's rising levels of estrogen. You are considered most fertile when the mucus becomes clear, slippery, and stretchy. Many women compare mucus at this stage to raw egg whites.

Normally the mucous is a protective barrier, but during the most fertile time of your cycle, it allows sperm to get through the cervix, up to the uterus, and then to the fallopian tubes for a rendezvous with your egg.


MORE INFO
u have to wait 10 days after ovuation to test for being prego and anytime u test before af should be here it mite be to early and even after af is late it can take up to 5 or 6 weeks prego to have the test show it. and the dollor store okp test and prego test work great and  i have heard a lot of people say on here and friend say they have had probelms after the iud with getting prego or have lost there sweet little baby from there body not being ready and im sorry to u girls that have had probelms i no how it feels and im sorry. and yes u mite feel prego for the frist few months after the iud is out its your body changing back and some of it mite be in ur head. it can make ur breast hurt and it could make af be late and it could make af diffternt every month and it can make u feel sick. some are lucky and get prego fast but rember ur body mite not be ready so wait at list 1 month before ttc, yes you can get prego the same day u get the iud out!!!! i hope this helps everyone, and sorry it i hurt anyone or scare anyone i just dont like seeing  anyone get hurt

I am currently 12 dpo. I have been taking tests for last 3 days and been getting faint faint faint lines on my tests. Took two more today and nothing is changing. The line is not getting any darker. I am starting to freak out because of the tubal pregnancy i had a few months ago. I just need that line to darken up so I can feel better and the doctor wont see me until the line gets darker on the test.

by mandyjune1987, Oct 27, 2009 07:11PM

by mandyjune1987, Oct 27, 2009 07:20PM

by lozzie192, Oct 28, 2009 06:45AM
When i went to have my IUD removed i was told by the doc that conceiving within 3 months of removal could lead to miscarriage as your womb lining needs to get thinker, well defo until after your first period anyway.

I had my Mirena removed 09/18/09
A/F yesterday 10/27/09

Hopefully i will be regular as i never had A/F for 4 yrs + and would like to plan to conceive in Feb.

Good luck to all TTC

thank you for the comments. Im just going to wait and see how long this goes on and if I do get AF bc i felt like she was coming again today and nothing, but still a discharge.....I got my IUD out on 10-7-09 so maybe it is my body getting back to normal?

To: landonNhaileighsmom
I really think that your doctor is ignorant if you have concerns that's what they are there for if i were you i would go to one of those free pregnancy clinics or find a new doctor because i have never heard of such a thing he wont see u because the lines arent dark enough. I hope its not another tubal pregnancy and good luck

I have taken over twenty tests the past week and I have been getting really faint lines. The lines were so faint I was wondering if they were evaporation lines. I even took two digital clear blue tests with my fmu this morning and got a not pregnant. Went to walmart and decided in a last ditch effort I would try FRER and took it and within a few seconds it turned positive. I can not believe I am pregnant again. Here is my timeline
06/14/09 - IUD expelled itself
07/27/09 - BFP
08/11/09 - Lost babies due to tubal pregnancy and one with no heartbeat.
10/04/09 - LMP
10/29/09 - BFP

God has definitely blessed me with this new pregnancy as I know he will bless each of you that are ttc.

You are all welcome Ladies for your sweet comments. Hang in there, keep trynig and don't give up. The first month we started trying, I was stressing a lot, counting DPO like crazy and testing early- that's why I think it didn't happen. However this month, I was A LOT more relaxed and just lay back and it happened:} YAY!

* Nina311: I will definately keep you posted.
* Mandyjune: when are you expecting your next AF?
* Vastinekelly: thank you for your prayers, God will bless you with a BFP soon!!
* Spikett77: Relax and, Good luck.

I had my IUD removed July 2nd and didnt have my period in July or in August and then September came around and I had my period for about 2 and 1/2 weeks. Now October is here and I havnt had my period yet since September 27th. I checked today to see if I was prego, but the test showed negative...should I try to check again? Has this happend to anyone? How long will it take for me to get prego?

by landonNhaileighsmom, Oct 30, 2009 04:32PM
I just got home from the doctor. I am approximately 3 weeks and 5 days along. I am due on July 11th, 2009. I have another appointment on monday to start monitoring my levels since I am now considered high risk since the tubal pregnancy. I know everything will be alright this time. Everything feels different this time.

by Quinns momma, Oct 30, 2009 07:15PM
Just wanted to pop on and wish you all luck. I had my Mirena removed last Nov 2008. Got my period 3 weeks later. Got my BFP 5 months after IUD was removed. Was only actively ttc 3 of those months though. I am currently 25 weeks pregnant with a baby boy.

hi ladies, i just wanted to say that all of us stress so much about symptoms and ovulation dates and pay attention to every litttle clue that we may be pregnant. i think we should all stop stressing and worrying so much and just let it happen,
i had my mirena iud out on august 17th. had some spotting and a period from hell on sept 30th lol
during this time me and my husband were actively trying and i like all of you was looking for every little clue that i may be pregnant. after trying ALOT for over a month and having no results we decided that we wouldnt actively try but if it happened then it happened.
i have supposed to start my period on the 27th, started to wonder if it was affects of the iud on the 29th cuz i still hadnt started my period. i had no cramps and no sign that my period was coming so i took a test this morning with my morning urine and low and behold...BFP!!!
i was in total shock!!!!s
i have had really no symtoms exept missing my period and urinating frequently. my boobs arent sore. no nausea, i have a little bit of indegestion but nothing serious. i havent even been overly tired.
so dont lose hope, it will happen when its supposed to and in my case when you are not expecting it at all. good luck to everyone.....sending lots and lots of baby dust xoxo

P.S. i used the due date calculator online and based on my last period i will be due july 7th 2010. :) :)

Hello everyone I am new here and I am happy to say that we have an appointment to get my iud removed on Tuesday. We have decided that we are ready to concieve. So I started to take prenatal pills to prepare my body is that okay? Has anyone done that.... Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can prepare my body... I really want to concieve and I have had no period for 3 years since I had my iud put in....
Thanks,

Happy Halloween Ladies!
First off I would like to Congratulate  landonNhaileighsmom and  babiesRus2 on their BFP, I'm so EXCITED for you!!! Well I am 17 weeks (HAD mIRENA REMOVED ON jULY 2) post mirena removal going on 18 and still no baby =0(. I think that I'm going to order the preseed found at babyhopes.com and see what will happen. Has anyone used this and has it worked??? Well I will keep all of you posted I wish everyone the BEST of luck with their pregnancies as well as TTC!

by chucky714, Oct 31, 2009 05:12PM
To: DiegosMommie
I started taking prenatal vitamins the same day i got my iud removed because my doctor insisted that it will have my body bounce back. Also she said to get the 800mg folic acid and if  you cant find one with that you can get the one with 400mg folic but take 2 a day. Also Primose Evening Primose oil is suppose to have your AF. By the way it look like you are already a step ahead. good !

by ttc_2009, Oct 31, 2009 08:43PM
To: chucky714
Hello...I'm just curious about the prenatal pills...you said your doctor told you to take 2 a day if you couldn't find one with 800...why is that? Does it start your AF quicker? I've never heard of that and I am just a little curious...I STILL haven't started my AF and I'm just wondering how I can speed up the process!!!!!!

Hello everyone!

Well the only news i got is that i am very confused..... after 4 months ttc i decided not to think about it that much and not to test again until a missed period, but i now i don;t know what is happening...... i always get my period very heavy since my first day, I was supposed to start my period on sat. (31) but i have been spotting (super, super super light) since the 30th. for example i'll go to the bathroom and i'll swipe and i notice maybe a drop or two, then the next time nothing, then the next time again about a drop or two...... and so on.

What could this be.......?  i am pretty sure i am not pregnant but why would my period get like this if i am very regular?
HELP!

I found out just because you dont see the discharge or have any symptoms of discharing doesnt mean you arent ovulation but i also find ut that if you feel cramps like as if your period is on you should take an opk test because this also is a sign of the egg releasing (ovulation). Once again congradulations to all the bfp. I hope to be right behing ya

I had my IUD removed September 17 th and on Sept 25-27 spotting then on October 2 had AF then done on the 7th. Still haven't started AF took a test today and it came out neg. I had very light spotting  oct 27-29 but is was more like implantion bleeding could i be pregnant? This is driving me crazy i am trying not to stress about it and it's not working to well.  Congrats to all of you that got a BFP

The same thing is happening to me.... i did a test this morning and it was negative. :(
I was due for AF on the 30th and spotted very light (almost nothing, only a few drops) from the night of the 31 to noon of the 2 and then it stopped completely.

At first i thought i could be implantation bleeding but the test said different. I am sure that it's only the streess that i have been through this past month with work an all.

GOOD LUCK TO YOU AND LOTS OF BABY DUST! :)

by harmony191, Nov 04, 2009 02:12PM

my spotting was brown and only there when i wiped then gone i am having no signs of AF coming anytime soon. So i guess i will just have to see. thanks and lots of baby dust to you too.

by sweeety09, Nov 04, 2009 02:26PM
To: harmony191
Yeah... it will just have to be the waiting game.

I read that supposibly, it should take around a week after implantation bleeding to show a positive on the test so just wait and re-test Sat or Sun and lets see what happens. :)

Well no AF for me yet. Maybe my body is still out of wack from the IUD but just have to wait and see took a dollat store test and BFN still if i don't start by the end of the month i will take another one we tried on the 14 and 15 of october and i should have been ovulating so i don't know maybe still to soon.

First off congrats to all the BFP!

Well it's been 2 weeks 1 day since I had the Mirena removed and other than light spotting after removal...no AF yet :( AF was never regular when I had the Mirena in...so I'm not really sure when to expect it. I am thinking around the 14th but who knows....


So for now I am playing the waiting game...(I hate that game! LOL)...but I figure that I better not stress it otherwise I could do more harm than good.

Good luck and lots of baby dust to everyone ttc!!

by mandyjune1987, Nov 05, 2009 03:20PM
i no what u meen the waiting game *****, this month im trying not to think about making a baby all the time and just trying to have fun and it is more fun when u do it for fun not just to have a baby. after 5 months omost 6 months of stressing about when to have sex and is my body ready etc i was starting to go crazy its more fun this way but it hard not to think about it

by shortstuff78, Nov 05, 2009 11:03PM
After reading these great stories, I feel a whole lot better about what will happen after getting the IUD removed. I kept hearing all these horror stories that after being on a contraceptive for so long might cause you to not be able to concieve again. I've had the IUD for about 5 years and my husband finally gave me the green light to take it out and start on our 3rd baby. He also told me to get some feed back on possible consequences of having it on for so long. You sure did make me feel better cause none of you commented on having to try for years after so THANX!!!!

I am due July 1, 2010 and I am freaking out I am starting to wonder if I am having twins cause I am showing alot more than I did before my boss I worked with didn't know I was pregnant till 2 weeks before I was due with my son, this time however I am already showing. I have twins on my dads side 4 sets, and my husbands side 2 sets so I guess I will just have to wait and see, There are none on my moms side that I know of but I take more after my dad... I am so anxious. Does anybody know what your uterus measures when you are pregnant with twins at 6 weeks, I know with one baby your uterus in 1 inch for every week but what about twins. Congrats to the new BFP. To those ttc keep us updated

hi im new on here. I had my mirena coil removed 5 wekks ago afetr having it for 2 and a half years. My partner and i want to try for a baby. i had no periods while i had the coil. 3 days after having the coil removed i had a dark brown really light bleed, but nothing since. I started feeling really sick and dizzy and really really tired about 3 weeks ago and thought that i could be pregnant. I have been taking tests a couple of times a week for the past 2 weeks but they are all negative!! I was so convinced i was pregnant as of all the symptoms i have been getting now i just dont know :( xx

Well, don't get discouraged. No positive OPK doesn't necessarily mean no ovulation. With testing for ovulation, it's easy to miss your LH surge if you don't test when it's occuring and since it may be very brief, you can totally miss it. I tried to test the 1st cycle of TTC and I did get the positive OPK but no pregnancy that cycle. I think I was over-stressing. Well the next month of TTC, I just went with the flow, no testing or counting DPO and I'm now almost 6 weeks pregnant!!!! Try not to stress and just let the process go naturally. It'll happen. Good Luck:}

Well ladies I'm almost 6 weeks pregnant, having some symptoms now, sore boobs, nausea (epecially at night), and dizziness but I'm loving it:} I feel great! I took another test just to see how dark the line is now and GEEZ it showed up instantly and it's even darker than the control line:} very exciting.

hello all,

i have been watching this post for a few days now....i just had my iud removed about two weeks ago, but i think i'm batting a thousand here because i'm also hoping that my hubby's vasectomy fails as well....lol  we initially decided that we didn't want any of our own kids, as we have four--2 each from our previous marriages--however, with his current pending deployment to afghanistan, we recently changed our minds.  go figure huh?  we don't have time to have a reversal done before he leaves, so i'm really wishful thinking over here....lol

anyway, i had the initial post removal spotting, but no AF since.  i had my iud in for almost the full five years (march 2010 would have been 5), and AF stopped visiting after about the first 6 months post insertion.  it's been very nice not having her visit every month.  but now i have no clue when, if, or how i might ovulate or get a visit since it's been so long!  any info or suggestions would be welcome.  good luck to those ttc and congrats to those who have!

by LiLimomof3, Nov 08, 2009 08:14PM
My IUD came out October 12th and though I hadnt planned on another baby, I started having all the signs of pregnancy. So I tested 4 times all BFN then today AF. SO sad and dissappointed. Im not planning to go back on any birthcontrol, so maybe a new baby is in my future.

So it's been awhile-- I am not as faithful of a writer as I use to be.. but been busy. Got a promotion at work  (10/8 official notice started on 16th) and started working OT even.

I think my job is the reason AF decieded to visit my first week of work (ha ha--hints the sarcasim). But I was happy that I didnt have to go through 6months of working out and weight loss to make it happen again like before my first and only son.

This week is aprox the 28-30day range of a normal reapearance of AF, so wish me luck. If she dont visit I am going to test. I have had some odd symptoms that I normally never get, nor did I get when I was pregnant with my son.. late night nausea and killer heart burn. Incredibly tired (but I've been blaming that on work) sore body/lower back and exhaustion.

Does this sound like pregnancy at all? No other distinct syptomps...

WRITE BACK PLEASE :o) Baby dust * to all * (o:

u could be prego it sound like u mite be but u want no to u test it seen that all of us feel prego and a lot of us are not, it could be stress

Thanks for sending me that note yesterday :)
We are still on about the same page. I am expecting AF this week. Like you...I have been having some different symptoms. I am cautious about  saying I feel pregnant. A lot of my symptoms are also PMS symptoms so....It's frustrating!
Achy upper legs are a new one though. I also had cramping on Friday and Saturday...just twinges since then. Other fun stuff, lots of saliva? headaches, fatigue, aversion to eggs, a little dizzy on and off, and 'rip my clothes off' type hot flashes.
I should know either way by Friday.

Good morning ladies!!

Well this weekend I got my first AF since my IUD removal. Started Saturday and was bright red. I was a little disapointed that she came at all...but relieved at the same time. I was worried she may never come at all! Yesterday I had light bleeding as well...now this morning NOTHING. Could my first AF really have only been 2 days? Should I be concerned or grateful that it was only 2 days? I haven't had a regular AF in years so I wasn't sure what to expect.

At least I know that in 2 weeks I should be ovulating and we can start trying again. We have decided to try every other day so that we don't miss any window of time.

Wish me luck and congrats to all the BFP!! Baby dust to all of us TTC!!

Well I tested on 10-28-09 and dthe ovulation test was positive i had sex that day and the next 3. The baby hope website said i could test on the 6th and i did only got a BFN i last night and i still fot a BFN so My AF is suppose to visit me on the 11th but i know it can be late or early. it doesn't look like its gonna be early though and that he website said that if I dont see it by the 13th I could be pregnant but all of these  stories have me believing that even if i dont see it it still doesn't mean i am pregnantI am scared i really dont even know why I am so anixous for this baby to conceive ASAP because when i was  on depo it took me a year and after the patch it took me about 6 months. The only difference is my 1st two wasn't planned and we decided to plan this one. Can some please give me words of encouragement thanks

Hi I have had the same thing happen when I was pregnant with both of my boys.. So yes you may be pregnant. I would test if it doesn't get heavier. If it is a brownish or light pink I would say yes. I had spotting for the first 2-3 months with both pregnancy..It's just some old bood that is slowly making it's way out.. Good luck & Baby dust your way!

If it's not AF then what do you think it is?? I am concerned that it was so light and only for 1 1/2 - 2 days....do you think I could be pregnant already and this is just spotting?? While I was on the Mirena I didn't really get "regular" AF but when I did get them it was usually mid month...so I thought in October I would have ovulated around the 26th ish...and I was having sex every other day then. Hmmmm....

To: Moo1736

I think what you might have had was post removal spotting. I had mine removed on the 21st and two days later I had light spotting that also lasted about 2 days. That's why I was confident that what I had this weekend was AF. But the more I talk about it the less I think so :( Who knows what it was...

Good luck to you and everyone ttc!!!

I took a test this morning (a little anxious to know) and it was neg... I wonder if I am just doomed. Damn PCOS!! I was hoping for a holiday suprise for our family on the flip side I like the idea of a non-summer birthday!

Maybe I just tested too soon, cause this heartburn and nausea *****!


So here are my stats:
Fri 7-17-09 IUD removal (light spotting 2-3days)
**several neg tests later
Fri 10-9-09 AF (light at first lasted 2 weeks)
Est. ovulation 22-24 (on a 28day cycle)
Est. AF return (28day cycle last friday) longer cycle this week- or Maybe I am prego and its way to early to know...

I found out with my son around 7-8 weeks so I am not sure if know this early would be nearly as fun!

Hey girls!! I am currently 5 weeks and 2 days pregnant. I was just wondering if any of your recently pregnant women have had any of your symptoms go away or lessen. My boobs were killing me a few days and now they dont really bother me at all. I was in the er a last night with a little bit of spotting and now I am freaking out. Any advice would help.

by Caralea, Nov 09, 2009 10:02PM
To: CONCERNED...
Most recent symptom- horrible leg swelling... I still have imprints from my ankle socks 2hours later? Is this something more serious or is this a possible pregnancy symptom.

I am so sick of the almost vomiting in my mouth feeling and I about knocked my DH on his butt when I beltched. Gross. Help me!

by mandyjune1987, Nov 10, 2009 08:01AM

Hello Ladies,

Long time no post. To recap my paraguard IUD was removed 8/6. Then I was informed that I had A typical cells on my cervix that may prevent concerption. Turns out I don't actually need surgery as of yet, that was good news. Below is my cycle over the past few months:

8/6 - IUD out
8/23 - AF
9/16 - AF
10/13 - AF
11/10 - BFP

I am so very excited. Congrats to all the other BFP holders and very sticky baby dust to all.
