Period returning after Mirena coil removal?

How long did it take for your first "proper" period to restart?

I had my Mirena removed last month (Tuesday 8th July), and then had a removal bleed for about 10 days.

My periods (despite being really heavy, which was what the coil was supposed to alleviate) were always really regular on a 28-29 day cycle prior to the coil. With the coil in, I didn't really stop bleeding for the whole time, hence the removal.

Except it's now past my usual 28 days (assuming I start from the removal bleed), and there's nothing. I did POAS on Sunday using an early indicator which was lying about from before due to miscounting my weeks, and it was negative (obviously not a guarantee with the early style). So, how long might this go on for? It's stressing me out big time as I have a job interview next week and I couldn't take it and then say "oops, I'm pg!".

Not much help but didn't have one! Mirena removed July 1st... post pregnant test on the 24th.

Oh help. That's what I'm worried about. Confused

We were being careful, but I'm just so uptight about it.
