Pregnancy tests, ovulation and ovulation tests
Spiral removed, pregnant after that?

Hi everyone!
I'm kind of pacing around nervously here. I had my IUD removed two and a half weeks ago. My partner and I really want a baby, but my gynecologist wouldn't remove it until 8 months later! So the hospital's secretariat suggested I go to another gyn, and I called the very next day! We had planned to start trying in August (I also needed a breast exam beforehand because I might have hereditary malignant cells). So that was the plan: condom until August... Wednesday the IUD came out, Saturday very light pink bleeding... Ok, period immediately, great! Then I could start calculating! But the following days, nothing more! Now since yesterday, some brown discharge again, and for a week now serious symptoms: nausea, sore breasts, moody, cheerful, stomach pain, cramps, the whole shebang... I thought my hormones were completely out of control, until my gyn said yesterday (because if I called half-panicked, she could suddenly see me the same day): it's quite possible you're pregnant! How so, I asked? Well, you weren't protected before the removal, and you should have taken extra precautions up to a week before, if your ovulation happened during the days of removal, you're probably pregnant... I got a paper to do a blood test within 2(!) weeks.. (earlier wasn't possible because it was too early). Meanwhile, 6 pregnancy tests later, all negative. Can someone help me out? What's all this? I'm going crazy (and I fear my partner is too, with my constant questioning). We planned to start in August, if it's earlier, that's fine too... but why can't I test until 2 weeks from now? If I already have brown discharge (implantation bleeding?) now? Thanks in advance!
