IUD discomfort? (TMI)

in Babies: 3 - 6 Months
Anyone have an IUD and feel poking down there? I washed my hands and felt around and I can feel something kinda hard, I'm wondering if its coming out? The thread is still there, but a little further up there's definitely something poking...

    I had the same thing.  I talked to my OB about it and when she looked at it, she said, "Oh!  I guess I left the strings a little long!"  She trimmed them up and I haven't had any problems since.

    Okay, so its not necessarily expelling?

    Not necessarily.  But I would get to my OB asap and have them check just to be sure!  Does your DH complain that he can feel it?  (Mine did, that's why I'm asking.)

    Oh, haha!  Well, I would definitely get it checked out especially if it is uncomfortable for you.  You shouldn't even noticed that it is in (according to my OB, anyway).  I never felt it after DS and (other than the string thing) I don't feel it now.

    I definitely would.  It wouldn't hurt just to get it checked.  GL!

    This.

    I just had mine taken out, but I had to have it checked once while I still had it because my strings crossed and one was poking me. The doc just un-crossed them and sent me on my way!
