Hi,
Looking for a bit of advise I'm having my implant removed this week Grin eeek!!
I'm super excited to start trying for another baby, was just wondering on who had theirs out and their stories as in how long did it take for you to conceive?
I'm really hoping we catch straight away as I'm sooo impatient lol

@Natmac190715

Hi, how long did you have your implant in for?
Maybe it's just your body adjusting back to normality

@jadelouiselaird

Have you had any AF symptoms at all? I've felt awful since having my implant removed 🤮

Maybe take a test? .. not sure how long it takes for your cycle to return to normal it's all so confusing ... I'm still waiting for AF to turn up

jadelouiselaird · 19/08/2019 17:05

i dont have a clue whats going so i started bleeding/spotting when i wiped on saturday.

Sunday was full on bleeding, now today its stopped.

So not sure if it was AF or not

Confused
jadelouiselaird · 18/08/2019 12:58

@RedFox695 good luck you never know once AF has gone ill be on with the OPKs aswell.

Baby dust to you 😁

RedFox695 · 18/08/2019 12:21

Hi, can I join? I had my implant removed on the 25th June, so a little under 8 weeks ago now. I had my withdrawal bleed 5 weeks after removal, so this is my first proper cycle ttc. I was on the implant for 7 years, while on it I had very irregular periods sometimes light sometimes heavy, I really couldn't predict it so never bothered tracking them.
I hope I fall this month but I know I'd be extremely lucky if I did. If not though I'm going to start using OPK's next month I think.
Baby dust to you all! Smile

jadelouiselaird · 18/08/2019 10:24

Thanks will do

Thats what happend to me, felt awful then it just stopped all of a sudden then i got AF

Hopefully you wont have to wait to long

@jadelouiselaird

I'm still waiting for AF to show her face .. all last week I had the worst stomach cramps they've gone now but boobs are so tender, wish this period would hurry up lol

Good luck with your tracking, keep us updated x

jadelouiselaird · 18/08/2019 07:56

Update ive just got my period, can finally stArt tracking etc

GrinGrin

jadelouiselaird · 08/08/2019 09:22

@Lauren3118 no ive not had a withdrawal bleed

I had it out on the wednesday and had a smear test on the Saturday and there was a little bit of blood/spotting but im pretty sure it was from the smear test as it was my first one

Ive been experiencing some cramps though like im going to start my period, but still waiting. I had periods with the implant and pretty sure one is due so im on the waiting game.

I'm afraid to say for me it took a year ttc #2 after having my implant out! It was my third implant but with a few years break for dd1. No PCOS or any other issues, it just took a while. Dd2 is now 6 months old though and the gap has worked out well!

So had the implant out finally after a 4 hour wait at the clinic 😫 & I felt everything as the anaesthetic didn't work properly .

@jadelouiselaird have you had a 'withdrawal' bleed since having yours out last week?

Baby dust required this way please 👶😂

jadelouiselaird · 07/08/2019 10:45

@mummyofone1 yes ive heard you can catch straight away. Lets hope we have as much luck as you :)

mummyofone1 · 06/08/2019 19:13

Hi both,

Yes I had very light irregular periods during the implant and one period before falling pregnant.
It was my second consecutive implant so was in 5 years in total, so thought it would take a little longer for hormones to settle, but the nurse who removed my implant was right you can catch straight away Smile

LiveEachDay · 06/08/2019 19:10

Www same situation so I'm following this Smile

jadelouiselaird · 06/08/2019 19:05

@mummyofone1 also did you have a period before you found out you was pregnant?

Lauren3118 · 06/08/2019 18:55

Hey,
I had my implant out early December 2017, and fell pregnant at the end of January 2018. It happened much quicker than I expected.
Good luck x

jadelouiselaird · 06/08/2019 18:27

Ive got 4 apps on the go lol, one of which is used with the easy@home ovulation tests you upload them to the app and it tells if there positive or negative

I got them of amazon they came with some pregnancy tests as well, only just started using them myself but the app makes it easier. The app is called premom and ive got the glow app which is quite good.
