well I'm not sure if I am now happy or sad but the witch finally showed!!!!

(at least I'm hoping she stays for the full period this time)

So after 2 months of being stressed and annoyed and frustrated I can finally start trying again. FX'd we get lucky soon guys and thanks for all the support over the past 2 months! XXX

 

[MrsPOP]

Im pleased she's finally showed up hun. Hopefully it will be for a final hurrah before she packs her bags for 9 months!!!!

 

[HarliRexx]

Well I'm glad you have been released from that long state of BFN/BFP limbo you were stuck in. I have all my fingers and toes crossed for you this cycle!

 

[buterflyangel]

Hi everyone, I am new on here. I've read a lot of your posts and I really like how everyone is very supportive and cheering everyone on. I would really enjoy being a part of this forum!

I had my Mirena removed 3 days ago (November 1) and my AF just started this morning. I had my Mirena 5 years with no AF at all....so now I will need to get used to it all over again, but I am glad to have it so I will be able to chart when I will O.
I originally had Mirana put in because I was diagnosed with PCOS, but now that my ovaries had a "break" my OBGYN says I have a stronger chance of getting PG.

Glad to see all the BFP on here, and FX to all you ladies TTC

[MrsMatt]

hello buterfly yes this forum is v supportive... no such thing as a "daft" question... and we r all genuinely delighted when one gets that BFP, and devastated when things don't go so well.... its a great community not bitchy like some xxxxxx

 

[HarliRexx]

Welcome buterflyangel! I had mine out Oct 22 during my AF. Ican tell my body is still adjusting to the change. I've been using OPK's and haven't O'd yet, grrr! Unfortunately it can take a while after removal for things to go back to normal, as you will see. But welcome to the TTC journey. Are you TTC your 1st?

 

[Kittenly]

Hello Ladies....

I think you may be just the people i need!! I had my mirena out on the 4th of Oct and have had no sign of AF ... I feel constantly tired at the moment, and have had odd feelings of nausea and I had one day of tiny spotting on Saturday...

I really just want to feel normal again and to know what the heck is happening with my cycle so DH and I can get on with it properly

 

[HarliRexx]

Kittenly, I have had headaches, nausea, and fatigue since having mine removed also. It is normal to have symptoms like that, also for your cycle to be irregular for a while too. In the meantime I'm using the OPK's to help me figure out when I'm O. Are you temping or anything else?

 

[Kittenly]

Hi HarliRexx

I'm not temping or charting or anything... my DH went through this with his first wife and it tore him apart so I have promised not to become too obsessive and to just let it happen.....

But that is easier said than done!! So i thought, if you'd have me, i'd join you and share my obsessiveness with you all!

So I guess at this point i will just have to wait for AF to appear when she is good and ready!

 

[HarliRexx]

Yes, glad to have you join us! I read alot on here that when you just relax and listen to your body that's when it happens. Not so easy when you're in that early post Mirena stage though is it?!

 

[Kittenly]

It really isn't! I was so unsure about taking the mirena out and starting this new chapter of our lives, but then when i thought i was preggers and got a BFN, it made me realise how much i want a BFP!!!

 

[HarliRexx]

Oh my, I totally understand. I was just venting on another thread yesterday how I feel absolutely psychotic because a couple weeks before my removal I was perfectly fine waiting to have kids "someday" but as soon as I made the decision that I wanted to start trying it suddenly was all I could think about, and still is!

 

[Kittenly]

It's so strange isn't it?! I was all thinking, well it'll take some time so we'll take it out and it'll take a good 12 months to get pregnant, and that was fine ....

Now i'm all I want a BFP now!! Which is kinda silly cos I a still not sure how i will juggle motherhood and working but now i just want to be juggling!!

 

[Ttcbabynmber2]

calasen sorry about AF coming but at least now your not wondering whats going on

 

[buterflyangel]

Hi Calasen, I would wave back but I haven't figured out how lol

Thanks for saying hi, MrsMatt

HarliRexx, sorry that you haven't O'd yet. I bought OPK's but I won't start testing for awhile since I am AF right now. We are TTC #2. I have a 12 year old son. I see your WTT. Do you have any other children? It's sooo hard for me to be patient.

 

[lucyoz34]

Hey girls, welcome to all the newbys! Mirena was a dream when it was in, but it's caused a few problems post removal!!! Here's hoping everything settles down soon for everyone.
I'm just coming up to my most fertile time apparently, if my cycle is going to plan. Should be excited but Im so nervous that we wont bd enough, or at the right time, or that Ill miss my ovulation, or that I wont ovulate! Its hell! Im actually looking forward to the 2ww so I can relax! Idk.
I'm sorry for those who weren't lucky this month.x
Lots of PMA tho and and xx

Ahhhhhhh buterfly, the truth is technically this is MY first child, but my 2nd pregnancy/birth. I had a baby as a teenager that my cousins adopted. She is 11 now.

It is like an eternity ago now, and this time things will be entirely different so it is really almost like a 1st pregnancy to me. When I was pregnant as a teen, I wasn't allowed at school so I was secluded from my friends, and my family never spoke of my pregnancy. I went to all of my check up appt's myself and everything. Never had anyone to talk to about any of it. It was a very lonely and heartbreaking time in my life. My mother didn't even believe me when I told her I was having problems and I ended up giving birth 5 wks early.

But it really is a happy ending. My LO is very happy and well taken care of by the best parents I could ever ask for for her. And I have been blessed with a wonderful husband that I am ready to start my own family with.

Sorry for such a long answer to such a simple question!!!

Evening Everyone,

Havent been on here for a while as I have been on holiday, had a fab 3 weeks in Florida and hoping that we bd enough on holiday to make a sticky bean!!

Great to see so many BFP's congrats everyone,

Glad things are settling down with my cycle, when you have the mirena out seems to play havoc with you to start with, sure it makes you think you are pregnant lol did anyone else find that

Think my AF is due tomorrow so fingers crossed for me xxx
