IUD goes in tomorrow... I'm nervous.

Getting my Paragard IUD tomorrow, and I'm nervous. I suppose I shouldn't be, it's nothing compared to what I just went through 10 weeks ago, right?

Ugh. I'm still antsy about it though.

I just got my Mirena yesterday and I was super nervous. I even told FI I wanted to leave once we were there and he kept saying the same thing that it was nothing compared to giving birth but I still didn't want to be there LOL.

It really was nothing. It was no more painful/uncomfortable than a pelvic exam. The worst part is that it made me really crampy afterwards but a nurse told me to take advil (or whatever you take for period cramps) before going and I think that really did help.

I had my Mirena put in a few weeks ago. It didn't hurt at all. I had a little cramping and a lot of bleeding for a day. Good luck!

I had my IUD up in last week and had zero cramping and zero spotting.

I was nervous about getting Mirena. I didn't feel a thing. All I felt was a instrument/tool that slipped out when my OB was done. No cramping afterwards either.

Mirena was no big deal going in--I took ibuprofen an hour before. I've been bleeding pretty much for a month now, though, which is sucktastic.

I got my Mirena put in on Tuesday. I was nervous, but all I felt was the instruments and a little cramping afterwards. Psyched myself up for nothing. 3 minutes in and out.
