I was fitted for a Mirena once, and it hurt like a mofo. However,I have learned that after childbirth, virtually nothing hurts (or compares!). I think it would be a breeze now. I didnt end up going through with it.

I had the mirena before I got pregnant and got it in again. I LOVE IT!!!! I would recomend taking a dose of motrin before because you can cramp for a little afterwards, it really does help.
I have Mirena and I love not having to worry about taking a pill anymore. I didn't feel a thing when I got it put in. I took some ibuprofen before I went it, but I did have some cramps for a few hours after. Nothing more than mild, period-like cramps though.

Steph - that is so awesome to hear. I have a friend with one and she loves it.
And as for the childbirth comparison pain, I did about 15 hours of labor and then an em. c-section happened, so hopefully it will be lesser than that!
lol, yes, it will be a breeze then.
Seriously, I think I could get hit by a mac truck and just walk away. I can't even believe what I thought was painful before.
I hope you like your Mirema! It will be nice to not have to worry about taking a bcp everyday.

Hope you love it!
Mmmm...cake!
I love mirena! The speculum was the most painful thing and I think mostly b/c my stitches had just healed. lol
Also- no AF yet. I'm EBF, so I don't know which is the contributing factor, but either way...
