First, I LOVE this forum!! Also, I apologize as I am not familiar with all of the abbreviation lingo just yet so bare with me.
I have had 2 IUDs since 2009 and just had the second removed in November in anticipation that we would TTC. Upon removal, I was put on Lo Loestrin Fe which I never got a period on. So in the last 7 or so years, I have not had a normal period. Spotting here and there but nothing resembling a normal 5 day cycle I had before the IUD. I did some research and saw various opinions regarding stopping BC mid pack. I called my doc and she said it was fine so I stopped about 2 weeks into my pack which was 6/14. My husband and I are very active even when not TTC so we have been going at it every other night since I stopped taking it. Starting 2 days ago, I noticed a cramping, consistent pressure on the left lower side which proceeded a few hours later into my lower back. My lower abdominal area also feels like a pulling sensation or almost like it's filled with air ( not like gas though, a different feeling). The same day this started I also noticed my CM was much much heavier and more slippery than normal. It's a very clear stringy consistency and there's a lot of it. It makes me feel extremely wet down there. I'm getting small headaches as well which is how I realized I was pregnant the first time with my son in 2008, that and my nipples were on fire!!!
I realize it's to soon to take a test so I am really just wondering, are these all signs of ovulation? It's been about a little over a week and a half since stopping the pill. And since I haven't had a period or symptoms in so long, I don't recall what it felt like when i ovulate.
Thanks
