Hi girls, I'm an infrequent poster but regularly lurk on some of the boards.

Just wondering if anybody has fallen pregnant with the copper coil and if so, what happened? I'm guessing the coil is removed but when?

Since having the coil 7 months ago i have been regular as clockwork, I'm now 3 days late. I'm trying not to panic but so far there are no signs of my period arriving. I did a test this morning which was neg but boobs are really full (something I don't usually get unless preg).

DH has been away and only returned a week last weekend, which would have been 3 weeks into my cycle so not the most likely time to be able to conceive. However, I had no trouble at all conceiving my 2 children, one was within a week of coming off the pill I'm really hoping i'm panicking over nothing!

This is some time ago we are talking here, but my sister was conceived with a copper coil in. In her case it grew into the placenta. This was before scanning etc, so removal wasn't really an option.

If your test is negative and your husband wasn't around at the right time, it's not likely though, so don't panic.
