I'm not going to lie the cramps might lay me out today...</p> <p>No, not TCC the Mirena was causing me some issues and my doc wanted to remove me from all hormones to see if it would help me. It's funny I was all for a 3rd baby until I got my Mirena out and now I'm like "NOPE I'm DONE!" haha so we will have to figure out our long term plan. I'm going to wait a year but a permanent plan will probably go into place after that time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1-week-post-iud-removal-spotting-ttc#post-2755633 Thu, 06 Jul 2017 11:48:16 +0000 mrsmbeegee 2755633@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LuLu Mom: UGH! I've heard the first AF after is awful. I dusted off all my boxes of tampons (LITERALLY!). It was so nice not having a period for over a year. Are you officially TTC now?<br /> @sojellybean: I almost caved and bought OPKs yesterday. I'm really hoping to avoid charting for a few months, but based on how anxious I am now I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to wait to chart. It's killing me to not know what's going on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1-week-post-iud-removal-spotting-ttc#post-2755622 Thu, 06 Jul 2017 11:30:37 +0000 mrsmbeegee 2755622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kiddosc: good to know! If that light period was actually a period I'm on CD 5. I had the EWCM 2 days ago. So far we've BDed EOD. It's going to be a long month... I had high hopes of being able to go with the flow. I'm not sure what I was thinking since that's never been my MO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1-week-post-iud-removal-spotting-ttc#post-2755621 Thu, 06 Jul 2017 11:29:32 +0000 LuLu Mom 2755621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got my taken out 6/5, spotted a few days, but AF started today with a vengeance, so almost 1 month to the date. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1-week-post-iud-removal-spotting-ttc#post-2755596 Thu, 06 Jul 2017 10:35:45 +0000 kiddosc 2755596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsmbeegee: I was tracking BBT because we were aiming to get pregnant ASAP. I did ovulate that first cycle, but it was a lot earlier than I was expecting. The next cycle was on track with my pre-IUD cycle length and we conceived that month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1-week-post-iud-removal-spotting-ttc#post-2755594 Thu, 06 Jul 2017 10:28:01 +0000 mrsmbeegee 2755594@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kiddosc: I had a super slight period over the weekend for just 1 day. For now I put it in my app as a light period and I had EWCM a couple days after, but I'm only tracking CM and CP right now so no idea if I'm actually ovulated. I figure I'll take a test at the end of the month if I don't get a real period by then. </p> <p>I'm also surprised how much more energy I have since I had it removed. I didn't even realize how the IUD was effecting me until after I had it out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1-week-post-iud-removal-spotting-ttc#post-2755104 Wed, 05 Jul 2017 11:47:04 +0000 kiddosc 2755104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a period 2 days after removal which was pretty light. That first cycle was short (23 days) and I got pregnant the next cycle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1-week-post-iud-removal-spotting-ttc#post-2754958 Wed, 05 Jul 2017 07:23:30 +0000 Mrs. Toad 2754958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't vote. I had a regular period on the mirena. When it was removed, my period showed exactly like it would have if I hadn't had it removed. I probably would have started TTC immediately, but I didn't want a baby that month. I conceived on our first try. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1-week-post-iud-removal-spotting-ttc#post-2754876 Tue, 04 Jul 2017 17:44:31 +0000 sojellybean 2754876@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had the spotting and then a really long cycle, like 49 days (where I tested many times). Then a regular 30 days and then got pregnant on the third one, using OPKs. They really helped since I wasn't sure what to expect timing wise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1-week-post-iud-removal-spotting-ttc#post-2754873 Tue, 04 Jul 2017 16:44:16 +0000 jhd 2754873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My period started just a couple days after I had mirena removed. That first cycle was pretty short maybe 20 days and then I went back to regular 27-28 day cycles. I didn't have a period with the Mirena. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1-week-post-iud-removal-spotting-ttc#post-2754859 Tue, 04 Jul 2017 14:31:39 +0000 KNS 2754859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got mine out last august and got pregnant about my 4th cycle. My first few cycles were pretty wonky and hard to predict so I started using opks to see what was happening. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1-week-post-iud-removal-spotting-ttc#post-2754846 Tue, 04 Jul 2017 13:38:51 +0000 petitenoisette 2754846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I spotted after a day or so for a few days then a true period 2 weeks later. My OB told me to wait til after then to TTC (I'm sure for dating purposes). I got pregnant after my third cycle, 2nd month trying. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/1-week-post-iud-removal-spotting-ttc#post-2754842 Tue, 04 Jul 2017 13:18:43 +0000 mrsmbeegee 2754842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had my Mirena IUD removed last week and the dr gave us the go ahead to start to TTC right away. I’m interested to hear experiences with post-IUD AF. So far, I’ve only spotted on and off. I’ve heard most people get a full period within 2-4 weeks. Has anyone only spotted and then got their BFP? (FWIW, we got pregnant the first cycle trying with LO#1.) </p>
