Faint?

Hello all, soooooo my husband and I are trying for our 3rd and last baby. Prior to, I had the Mirena IUD inserted. I had the IUD for about 1.5 years had my period each month (except 2 months) that I was on it. We decided that I have the Mirena removed on May 27th. About 3 days later I had the "after Mirena bleeding". It was light and lasted for 3 days. We were intimate the day of removal, the 5th, 10th and 14th. I figured  would take a few months so we were just having a little fun before I headed out of town for 2 weeks. Any who, I started getting a lot of nausea and pretty much everything else. I shrugged it off as post-Mirena symptoms. Eventually, something told me to take a test to be sure. I got a very faint positive on Sunday the 18th and again on Monday. So now I'm confused and anxious to know if I really am or was the test wrong. Anyone gotten pregnant so soon after BC??

    Yes me! I had my mirena out on 16th March and got pregnant pretty much straight away - I am not 14+4. Like you it's my 3rd baby.

    Congratulations x

    Thank you but I'm wondering if I could be a victim of the "blue dye test". I took another yesterday (a whole week after the last one) and the line is even fainter-still noticeable but realllllllllllly light. It doesn't help that i have been cramping off and on the last few day. Today makes 32 days since I had the IUD removed and the only bleeding I had was 3 days after-which was light and lasted 3 days. Hubby and I we're imtimate each time I felt the "ovulation pains". Before Mirena I had a very regular 32 days cycle. How regular might you ask? Both my boys were conceived around the exact same time just a different month 4 years apart. Oldest-9:/14/11 youngest-4/14/15. These cramps have me feeling as if I'm about to start AF any minute.

    Hi ladies, what do you think about this test I took. The line appears to get darker from previous test but only slightly. Based on my ovia app I'm 15dpo but not sure how accurate the app is and I have irregular periods, based on last months cycle I was due last Thursday but nothing has happened yet. 

    Need some advice as I have taken 4 clear blue tests which have a faint line on them within the 3 minute mark

    yea, that's pretty much how all of mine looked. Visible enough to notice but not enough to consider it a positive result. It doesn't help that I don't have anything to go by since I am unsure of what cycle day I was on when I have the Iu removed or if and when I ovulated. Today makes 33 days since removal. I still have the "could I be pregnant symptons" but I've always had cramping on and off for the last 3 days. Feels like wonderful mother nature is on its way. I'm wondering if it could be the blue dye running making the test look positive. I just wish I knew! Please keep my updated on yours!! Best of luck and much baby dust!

    As long as you viewed it within the time frame, looks positive! Congrats!

    I'm trying to not get excited and am trying to hold off taking another test for a few days. 

    But thats generally what they look like for me and me being irregular doesn't help either.

    i think it may be positive but don't want to work myself up to then be disappinted. and I'm 15dpo based on ovia which again I don't know if that's accurate. waiting Is the hardest!!!
