I was here on the board back almost 5 years ago, ttc with my first. I got back on bc after she was born and have been on it ever since. I hated taking a pill every day. I hated the mood swings it caused. The bloating. The weight gain. etc. etc. etc.
About 6 months ago, I asked my dr for mirena. I thought it would solve all my problems. Ha!
For 2 months, it was lovely. No period. No problems. Then it got worse and worse and worse. The strings poked hubby some times. I was feeling bloated. And my back started to hurt. I would spot all the time. I knew it was the mirena.
I got it out 3 weeks ago (yes, i feel SO much better!!). I started my first non-chemically induced period in 5 years two days later. I've always been regular, on or off bc.
So hubby and I decide to dtd the other night. We've been talking about pulling out or letting it happen. Like many of you, not stressing about it either way. It was a game time decision. I kept thinking in my head it was a safe day. Yup. It's a safe day. Well, game time decision was not to pull out.

And after wards, I started thinking clearly....what was the date....lets see....I....OMG. I am RIGHT smack in the middle of my most fertile days.
It took exactly one time to conceive my daughter. So, now we wait and see I guess.
