I felt totally fine after...it was uncomfortable during but that's about it.
"Normal day, let me be aware of the treasured day you are. Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you depart...let me hold you while I may."
I have had 2. The first (pre-baby), was awful. I felt a little bit of residual pain afterwards, but I went back to work and functioned just fine.
The second (post-baby), was a walk in the park. Had I not been watching the ultrasound screen, I wouldn't have known it was happening. The only PITA thing afterwards was leaking out all the fluid.
Brought to you by IVF, ICSI, limited fert, and oocyte cryopreservation. Because we're fancy like that.
I had one two days ago-my second one. My first was much easier from what I remember but it still wasn't badded. Just cramped a bit as the saline was going in.....
I've had 2, each before TTC for each kid. Peace of cake in comparison to the HSG. A little uncomfortable during, but perfectly fine within minutes, ok to drive, no pain following.
my 1st, I had significant cramping, painful enough to double me over for a few hours. (and remember, I had a natural csection, so I can handle pain!!) the second was minor cramping

My HSG before Kira was my most painful experience ever to that point.
My SHG before Elena was like a wet ultrasound.
Good luck!
