The 'OFFICIAL' Ex Mirena Thread

[frybaby2012]

Well after reading 400 pages I decided to register as a member

A short story. I had the mirena put in July 2009 after #3. I never had an AF while the Mirena was in but I did develop the worst rash on my leg that would not go away despite all prescribed creams. Sister mentioned to me it could be hormones so I decided to give it a shot. We were not talking about another baby but was not careful and if I dont get a BFP this month I think we will def be ttc.

Anway mirena was removed 3/22. 3/23-3/24 had removal bleeding. Got my first AF 4/17. My ovulation was 4/30 through 5/3 in which we BD twice. Not sure how many dpo I am. Do I count it from temp spike, first day, last day?????? On 5/7-5/9 I had very dark thick (but not heavy) brown discharge. It stopped but still notice just slightest color of brown in discharge when I go to the bathroom. (Sorry if TMI)

I know theres a possibility I could get a BFP. Can anyone tell me though how many dpo I am and when I can test???

Thanks for having me and baby dust to everyone!!!

Hi frybaby!! Welcome to our thread! I think the temp spike confirms ovulation though, so maybe count from the day before the temp spike? I usually go with the last possible ovulation day and count from there. But my cycles are insanely wonky so at this point I don't even bother to count or test.

AS for the rest of you---you're all practically CD1! I'm the exact opposite of everybody!! wwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!

DH's script was $180 for 6 pills!! O. M. G. Guess I'll be pulling out the stocking and hoping we don't have to use it very often!

FryBaby- can you link your chart? I agree with Babyo, I count the day before the temp spike as ovulation day, and it seems OPKs support that.
Sounds like you might have had implantation bleeding, eh? Very promising!
Welcome to the thread, we're a wacky bunch but lovable nonetheless.

Babyo- that is crazy expensive! Save it for during the + OPKs?? Or I guess whenever hubby wants to use it.... I don't know what viagra etiquette is. L-arginine is supposed to be nature's viagra, perhaps would be a less expensive solution.

 

[frybaby2012]

Thank you ladies. I am a lil behind and since this is my first forum my chart is still just paper and pencil. I will however be working on getting it to electronic form.
Taking more notice lately and my discharge is very stringy (not breaking when stretched) Again sorry if TMI but you all seem very in tune and could possibly tell me what this means.

Crosshairs, on my ff chart, which means i ovulated... Or so it says lol

Jessica, ur son sounds sooo cute! He must be enjoying the icecreams lol

Fry- cm that stretches and doesn't break is often present around ovulation. Is it clear? EWCM stands for "egg white cervical mucus" which is considered fertile. For me, usually, my EWCM starts to "dry up" on the day of my temp rise.
However, varying levels of hormones in each woman's body can produce stretchy CM at different times. This cycle for you is likely to be very confusing, confusion seems to be the consencus among us post mirena gals.

I hope you can skip all of that and go straight to being a baby oven
The good news is, the more data you collect for your chart the faster you will start to see what is your "normal".

Stacey- your chart looks good! A white line sounds like an evap? But you very well could be our BFP. That would be so awesome!!!!! Wouldn't it be funny for your appt to turn into a pregnancy confirmation appt???

[sjones1125]

Liz- that would be awesome! But i refuse to get any more excited lol. We saw what happend last cycle i don't mean to be so negative but it sucks to get your hopes up, especially with the way my temps are.

 

[LVnMommy]

Ok So Im going to temp this cycle starting in the morning! I setup a FF account so Hope it does some good// not too smartypants with the temps so Hoping yall can help me figure it out

 

[sjones1125]

So- if i get rid of that one positive OPK, my ch's are gone. I don't think its accurate. My OPK was left for lOnger than the 5 min mark. Should I just get rid of it?

 

[OperationBbyO]

So TTC this month may be a bust. DH and I got into the biggest fight we have ever had....ever. Like, we screamed at each other until 7 am. We have NEVER fought like that, ever. We don't fight and neither one of us are yellers.

Yesterday was prime baby making day.

IDK...we had make up sex today...twice (no blue pill needed). But the stress of my little discovery yesterday and the stress of yelling. Ugh. Oh well, MW appt in two weeks.

I'll probably back off BnB for a little bit, I"m too bummed about this cycle already. (I'll stalk though!!)

 

[sjones1125]

Bbyo- I'm sorry to hear that , i'll be praying for whatever you guys are having a hard time about, be fixed soon. And you guys get back to expanding your little family we will miss you! Don't stay away too long!

 

[RainyMama]

Babyo- is the discovery you're referring to the Viagra?
I hate it when I feel out because of timing. So frustrating. Keep us posted when you can, we'll be here when you're ready

 

[RainyMama]

Jessica- what do you need to know? I would be glad to help if I can.

 

[mummy to be]
