Post-Coil Removal Bleed

I had my mirena coil removed on 10/01 and started bleeding 48 hours after.
My last period ended 02/10 (8 days before removal).
I’ve had this coil for 7 years.

The bleeding is heavier than my normal period, and has lasted 8 days so far. I’ve got a call with my nurse booked in but has anyone else experienced bleeding after coil removal to this extent?

I had what I thought was a period for 3 days then no bleeding for 2 days, then a period for a week.
Mine wasn't heavy but I'd only had it for 18 months.
I'd see what the nurse says as it may be your body adjusting to the coil being removed or something else

thank you! My next period is due on 25/01 so I think I’ll just have to be patient and see what happens, hopefully it all calms down next cycle 🤞🏼

My cycles were all over the place for months after having the mirena coil removed. Some months id bleed twice, some none and would have a 7/8 week cycle. Really took a while for my system to re set itself😅

No problem!
I only had that as I found out I was pregnant 4 weeks after having it out..
Also as we get older, our cycle and flow can change so that would be worth considering

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Reduced Movements

Has anyone else gone in for monitoring for reduced movements and as soon as you arrive at triage the baby starts moving and the CTG is normal? It makes me feel like I am over reacting.

Newborn stage

Is anyone tired of doing the same thing everyday and being on a 2-3 hour schedule? It’s the same everyday and I feel like I’m losing my mind. It’s making me depressed even if I get out once a day. When does it get better? I feel like I’m just waiting for the next stage where it’s not just sitting around all day.
