Pregnant with Mirena?

I have had the Mirena IUD in for a year now, my cycles have never been regular I go a month or two with nothing and then I will have spotting one month, but nothing major. I have actually been pretty happy with it. However, the last 3 or 4 days my breasts have been really really tender and sore, I am exhausted and I just feel bloated everytime I eat something. I took a test today but it was negative...could I still be pregnant and how long should I wait to take another test? I was going to wait a week to see if my symptoms went away and maybe it was all just a result of ovulation? Has this happened to anyone?

Let me know?

Yes!!  I also had the Mirena IUD and the first year was great... Then I would get the same symptoms u described every other month.  Used to drive me nuts... It is the hormones in it and it is quite common to experience that.

Hi there its coming up to a year this month I had a mirena instu, I think its great for me I was over the bleeding, and the mirena has been a godsend.   Every month I would get  back pain, headaches, and spotting to a degree of wearing a tampon, it is the hormones and yes it is quite common to experience that.
