Hey guys, am hoping to get some advice. I posted here because it sounds like this is what we're doing - not trying, but not preventing. So hopefully people will have some advice.
Apologize in advance for any TMI stuff but I figure this forum is not squeamish about periods right?![Stick Out Tongue :p :p](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I got my Mirena removed on Jan 26th. Prior to that I got a very light period on Jan 22-23 (normal for the Mirena, if I got it it was light and short). When I got it removed I had light bleeding Jan 26-27, they said to expect that. Both times were normal reddish color.
We had sex on Feb 5. According to the calendar, my period was due Feb 19. I got it on Feb 14 - but it was mostly brown, which is weird for me. I'm still having some bleeding today Feb 15, but again, brown, and not steady.
Does that sound like implantation bleeding? I figured it was pretty slim that we'd get pregnant right away, but Mirena says it can happen and I've read about people getting pregnant immediately. If it makes a difference, I'm 24, never had a baby. But from what I read implantation bleeding would be the week before you'd expect your period, and brown. But I figure I'm getting my hopes up thinking that.
My thinking is that if the brownish blood was because of the Mirena being removed, it would have happened when I got it removed, or sooner, not 2-3 weeks later, right? Or would it? Has anyone else experienced this after the Mirena being removed? (or any IUD?)
I was planning on waiting and seeing what happens over the next few days. If the bleeding turns into a normal period I will ignore it but if it stops and that's it for the month I think I will test when it's the right time? Which would be around the 19th or so right?
Any advice you guys can offer would be helpful. Thanks![Smile :) :)](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
