Hi roisisne,

When did you come off the pill? The withdrawal side effects are really good at confusing us.

Are you charting temp at all? It can really help work out what your body is doing.

Those signs sound more like post-ov to me (particularly the constipation and heavy boobs), although confusingly they can also be early pregnancy indicators! Some people feel those effects for most of the 2 week wait after ovulation, until their progesterone levels start to drop before AF arrives.

thanks ladies il just have to wait to c if af comes but its the first time in my life i even noticed ovulation pain etc.i had the coil in but got it out in sept not mirena ,i had a mirena for seven years and ordinary copper for one year.thw waiting bit at the start of tcc hard but i know il settle into a pattern but hopefully not too long tho.:lol:
