How quickly did you get pregnant after IUD removal (over 35 pregnancies)?

Hi I had my iud removed yesterday. I am 40 and tttc #4. This will be my 3rd pregnancy. I’m just wondering (for the “older”mummies) how long it took you to get pregnant after iud removal? And were you actively tracking cycles?

Had mine removed in May when I’d just turned 40. Started tracking straight away and having sex at appropriate times. Used clear blue ovulation tests and the Clue app (although I think the built-in iPhone tracker would have been fine and saved me £25 quid).

Got pregnant in August and right now I’m sitting nursing DS.

Good luck!

I’m 40. I had my copper coil removed mid April in time to try for May’s cycle. I fell pregnant but it ended in a chemical.

Ok so update: I had my iud removed on 23/6, my sex drive sky rocketed that day which I just assumed that was because of the rise of estrogen after removal. 24/6 I had egg white discharge and my sex drive was still really high for the next couple of days. I did ovulation tests from the 24th onwards but they were just really faint for about 4 days till they disappeared. No strong positives. I haven’t had a period for years because of my iud but the month before I got it removed I had a small bleed for a couple days which I just tracked as a period (this is my second iud and after about 3 years in my periods returned but irregular so I assume the same was starting to happen again). Based on this according to my flow app I was due to ovulate on the 27/6. However I think if I have then if it’s not unusual to ovulate straight after removal I think that maybe I have ovulated somewhere between 23-25th 🤔 my app thinks my period is due around the 13/6.

Anyway so yesterday when I wiped I had some bloody discharge. Today I’ve had some light-medium bleeding. I’ve had a banging migraine since yesterday and heightened sense of smell. I have no other period symptoms, usually, even when I don’t get an actual period when my IUD was in place, I would get absolutely ravenous for chocolate, very very sore boobs and I’d have a really low mood/irritability for a day or two before I turned. I’ve had none of this!

has anyone experienced anything similar to this and turned out to be pregnant?
