I'm already panicking.

I just made an appointment to have my Mirena taken out. My appointment is August 7. We are not really ttc, but not preventing. Ideally I would like to get pregnant next year. I'm going to end up pregnant next month, lol. I know I'm rambling, but I'm freaking out!

It'll be fine.

But why are you having it removed now? Why not wait until your ideal time for PG?

This panic is what has caused me to change my appointment twice already.

September is my month now, and it just has to be done.

If you want to wait till next year to get pg, I would push back having it removed.

I'm having it removed earlier than I "ideally" would like to be pregnant, because I know I will have a difficult time getting pregnant. When I am off BC, I generally only have 1-2 periods/ year. I would like to wait another year, but knowing that it could be difficult makes me want to go ahead and get it out now to up our chances. My OB also said that it sometimes takes your body awhile to adjust once the Mirena is removed.

I will be happy if we get pregnant now, but would prefer it to happen next year lol.

Oh God. See!! Why doesn't my OB say things like this? She makes it seem like it will take forever for my body to be ready once it is out.

I am sure you doctor knows your body better than some random internet stranger, just giving you my story! GL

My doctor told me to be prepared for a baby basically the minute it's out. She's seen more than a few people not get a period and just get pregnant once it's removed.

It's like the ute throws a party or something, gets drunk and ends up pregnant.

Oh, yea we may pull and pray for awhile. 

Confession: I have never used a condom.

I've heard of a lot of people getting pregnant the month that sucker comes out, I hope it turns out the way you want it to.

Yep! Definitely heard of several people getting pregnant quickly with a Mirena removal. Good luck!
