TTC after IUD removal?

Hi Ladies,
I am having my Paragard IUD removed in a couple of months and am anxious to get pregnant ( I already have a 12 yr old lol.)  Has anyone had trouble concieving after an IUD? Dr says it can happen immedetely but I find it hard to believe the uterus doesnt need to recove from the "shock" so to speak.
Can any former IUD users offer some feedback? Thanks!

I had the Mirena IUD.  My OB wanted us to wait two cycles to give the lining of my uterus a chance to get back to normal.    We started TTC in late March and got our BFP the middle of June.    Good luck!

I had my Mirena in for 2 1/2 yrs and had it removed in May 2009 and waited two cycles to start ttc.  My doc told me I could get pg right away, but I wanted to let my hormones balance out a little and have at least 1-2 periods before I got pregnant.  Plus, I've heard that you have a slight chance of miscarrying if you get pg too soon after you get off any bc (I've just heard from some ladies complaining of m/c after getting pg right away from the IUD).   I'm glad we waited too, I'm glad I'm due in April instead of Feb or March.  I wanted more of a spring baby, when the weather is warmer. 

It took me forever to get pg with my first two kids (this was pre- op when I weighed a lot- 2 yrs with my first and 14 months and 2 rounds of clomid with #2), so I was a little worried when ttc this one.   But I got pg the first time we tried in July 2009 and you can imagine my SHOCK!  GL to you!

I had the Mirena for just over a year when I had it removed to ttc.  We waited until my 2nd period after having it removed before ttcing.  My doc said that it can take up to 6 months to gte pregnant but we got pregnant immediately.  Make sure you wait until you have your 2nd period after having it removed so that you have a good lining for implantation.  My friend had hers pulled shortly after I did and she got pregnant immediately...unfortunately she lost the baby at about 5w due to not enough uterine lining.  She waited a few months after her m/c and got pregnant again, this time she carried to term and now has a very healthy 8 month old son.

Make sure you're ready because it can happen FAST!  I had mine out during the holidays last year.  I got a "period" (mostly spotting/bleeding after removal - not a read period).  Three weeks or so later I got my actual AF and with that cycle I got pregnant. I was shocked at how fast things happened.  My daughter is now two months old and healthy as can be. 

Incidentally, I was so pleased with the IUD (Mirena) that I had a new one placed at my six week post partum visit.  Pretty sure we are done but since I don't know for sure, I stuck with what I know works for me.   Good luck to you!
