Hey ladies, just wondering if anyone's been in a similar position and what the outcome was, can't really to talk to anyone about it and really struggling with the "what ifs"
I had my iud removed after i felt it in my cervix, no idea how long it had been that low but DH never complained, cramps had been getting worse each month and gp said it could've just got gradually expelled or was never actually in the right place to start with. Anyway I think I ovulated the day we dtd and i noticed the iud bring too low 2 days later. I held on to it for another week in the hope that it might carry on working but since reading up on it iud pregnancies seem much more commen than the 1% stated by the manufacturers. Surely there arn't that many super fertile men and women out that can defy the odds! Even the copper one, which I had, is supposed to be as effective as sterilisation. ....which I now wish Id opted for instead!
so now I'm in the 2ww and going a little bit out of my mind, we recently just discussed how having more kids is not really an option. I don't think DH would react well if I was preggo. I'm aware your body can play tricks on you when you're anxious but on saturday morning (9dpo)out of the blue I work up with breast pain worse than my normal pmt and af not due til wednesday/Thursday, also had 2 days of pinching pain on one side 5dpo and have been hugely bloated and weepy for a few days. I know it's possible im just having really bad pmt but I've got tingly prickly boobs and deffo never had this before af. Usually it only hurts if i lay on them or something. I have tried a first response which was negative so just waiting now and if nothing by Thursday ill test again but has anyone been in the same boat? Is it possible to get pregnant while a copper iud is still inside but can be felt in the cervix? Gp said come back if af doesn't come or I get a positive test but doesn't think it's likely at all. I don't know whether to dismiss all these feelings or prepare for the worst! Help!
