			<title>Mirena NOT for a prude!</title>

I did not choose the IUD to avoid pregnancy, but to try to stop the heavy bleeding I had been experiencing with my periods. It worked like a charm, I must say. My cycles were all that I had dreamed about, regular tampons and a panty liner. IT WAS BEAUTIFUL ! <br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>I was no longer bleeding to death or having to take iron supplements. I did mention that I chose Mirena not to avoid pregnancy, but I am sexually active. Same guy for years, safe, and very enjoyable sex. Sorry I forgot where I was!!! LOL<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>THEN IT HAPPENED! In November, about the 13th,I began to bleed very heavy again....WTF! He had mentioned that he felt something while we were &quot;sharing ourselves,&quot;&nbsp; but I didn't think much of it. When the river started to flow I decided to check the strings on Mirena. This is of course why I say the Mirena is not for a prude. (I of course had checked the strings about two weeks after it was placed in the event that &quot;something&quot; ever went wrong.)&nbsp; Well wouldn't you know it, what did I find .....wait for it......the whole IUD. It was in my vagina. No longer in my cervix were it belonged.&nbsp; I had not felt any pain. I do not cramp with my cycles and can not remember any physical discomfort. But there it was in my hand. I sat in the tub staring at it amazed then it hit me...uh wow well hum... this could mean I am pregers. <br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Well I have a few more days to wait to get the official pregancy test. He and I tested at home and at the doctors office, but it would have been to early. Now that my breast hate my bra, I drink coffee all day (never have before), and I am very tired( I wake up thinking about what time I m gonna nap), had a 3 1/2 day cycle that started Monday December 8th and by Thursday of the same week was over( I am a 7 &quot;dayer&quot; or more with heavy heavy bleeding) I am thinking that the boys will have another sibling. <br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Oh well! I just wanted to write about my experience to help others. CHECK THE STRINGS&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;If you do not want to another child right now check the strings.....</strong><img src="http://www.minti.com/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/wink_smile.gif" alt=""/></p>
