you might be pregnant, but it might also just be the fact that your hormones can be really messed up after you get an IUD out. From personal experience, it would be best to try to NOT get pregnant until you've had *at least* one normal period. I got my IUD out in January because I got pregnant with it in. I miscarried the day I got it out. I didn't want to wait to try again so I ended up pregnant 2 weeks later in Feb. Well that was a mistake. Turns out that after you get an IUD out your uterus is swollen and your hormones are messed up. So I ended up with a tubal pregnancy because my uterus was too swollen to let the egg pass thru my tube. They don't tell you this at the doctors office, because the IUD companies pay them, but you have a greater chance of tubal pregnancy or miscarriage after an IUD. so if you are not pregnant now, please consider waiting a month or two. I speak as someone who lost 2 babies because nobody told me how dangerous it can be to get pregnant after an IUD.

I also had my IUD removed on 5-14-13. My ovulation day was there 19th. My periods were always normal. I am waiting for any pregnancy signs. I have had light cramps and tender breasts only. I really don't know if I am pregnant. I am expecting my period on 6-1-13.
