Is it all in my head?

in Trying to Get Pregnant
Okay so I got my iud taken out on July 1st and started what I'm assuming was a period July 3rd and it was more of a dark brown 'bleed' (sorry for the tmi) but that lasted Friday and Saturday and then i thought it was done. I told an ovulation test Sunday and it showed two relatively dark lines so my husband and I had sex and afterwards I had more of a pinkish discharge. (Sorry for the tmi again). We starting trying to conceive as soon as I got my iud out. And since this weekend every time I get up I'm light headed and sort of black out. I have had heart burn and felt kind of nauseous and extremely tired. Also my lower abdomen feels just different. Could it be possible that I got pregnant the day I got my iud out? Or could I just be overly excited to get pregnant?

    NO you are not pregnant 5 days after removing your IUD. That's just ridiculous.

    Read more on this board before posting. Asking if you are pregnant is not allowed. Why would you want a bunch of internet strangers to guess anyway? Read taking charge of your fertility, download fertility friend and do their charting course and watch the videos, search this board for any question you might want to ask and read the rules. Sorry but we don't have patience for this.

    @taybridges -There has been a lot of ladies asking if they are pregnant lately (even though they are not supposed to). So if you get not so favorable remarks, that's part of the reason. Also, this question is a clear indication that you haven't lurked very much on the page (you would have seen that the other ladies who asked this question got similar responses to what you are going to get). Lurk. Lurk a lot. It's amazing what you will learn.

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I am not familiar with what happens to a woman's body after the iud is removed.

     "Some women may experience some light blood or spotting during ovulation.Implantation of a fertilized egg normally takes place 6-12 days after ovulation" (quoted from here). Having had a positive OPK on Sunday would put your implantation (if the egg was fertilized) towards the end of this week into next week. So chances are that you would not be showing signs of pregnancy. 

    You can have spotting after intercourse.  I'm slightly doubtful that it was your period if you did have a positive OPK. "For most women, the length of time between ovulation and their monthly period is between 12 to 16 days" (quoted from here) also know here as the Two Week Wait. You cervical fluid can also have a pink tint to it usually about the time of ovulation. 

    I agree with some of the other suggestions other members have said. If you think you're pregnant take a test. Sign up for fertility friend, get a good basal body thermometer and use it, and order TCOYF (new edition comes out tomorrow). These will help take a lot of the guesswork out. Good luck!

    You are not pregnant yet. It is impossible to feel any symptoms a day after sex. Impossible.

    No no no. Not real. I refuse to believe this is real. Even in my most ignorant days or TTC did I believe that I could be/would be totez KTFU 5 days after going off birth control. Calling it now- OP is 19, a military wife, and totez ready for a baby! OP, how old are you?
    Hahahah yes. My husband is military, and I approve this message. 

    Sometimes I have a hard time telling people about DH's work because of stereotypes like this, but it's only because they're true!

    Both times I've had my IUD removed, I've had l kinds of weird symptoms-- similar to what you're describing. Both times it was just my body adjusting to the hormone change of the IUD removal. You're probably not pregnant. If you read a lot of the board postings you'll probably learn a ton of helpful tips (like temping and charting) that will help you in your TTC process.

    We "R" rude? How about lurking and understanding board etiquette before posting? It's impossible for the OP to be pregnant.
