Pregnant with Mirena?

in Parenting after a Loss
Long time no post! I thought I would throw this question out there because I am pretty confused. 
After DS was born, I got Mirena inserted.  I have been incredibly nauseous so I thought "hey I will just try a cheapie test."  It immediately came back positive. I was really confused by that, (and did 4 more cheapie tests- all positive) so I went to Target and got 2 FRERs. I took the FRER and BFN. 
I will take the second one in the morning, but what the hell?  Anyone go through this? Also has anybody gotten pregnant with the Mirena still in? That scares me a lot (not the baby, the having the Mirena in there and needing it removed). I know false positives are incredibly rare, but this is so complicated by the fact that I haven't had AF since before DS was born almost 2 years ago, and I am not sure what to make of the 2 different results. Ugh.

    Hmm personally I would trust a FRER over a cheapie, but maybe test with a FRER and FMU tomorrow and see what it says. If it is negative I would go with you not being pg. GL!

    Thanks! It's such a toss up. I will be testing tomorrow morning for sure.

    I would test in the morning with a FRER but i would call the doc and get a blood test just in case. Being pregnant with the mirena is rare but if it occurs the doc needs to know asap because 1 it would need to be removed and 2 an ectopic pregnancy needs to be ruled out as the chances are higher with the mirena.

    Have no experience with this, but echo PP's. I'd call my OBGYN straightaway for a blood test just to be on the safe side. GL!

    I have a dear friend who got pg on the mirena, and just had her little boy last month. Aside from the initial shock and quick removal, her pregnancy was easy peasey.
    S/N I didn't have a period when I had my Mirena, but was always super nauseated around the time that it "should" have come.
    Good luck to you!

    Thanks everyone. Definitely will call my Dr. tomorrow, and take the other FRER. I am just really scared about the removal process if I am actually pregnant. I will find out tomorrow.
