Question Cramping after IUI

Has anyone experienced cramping after an iui? I had my iui this morning and I started cramping (feels like really bad af cramps) this afternoon. I called my re and they said not to worry unless I was running a fever or was in servere pain. I've never cramped with an iui before so this is new for me. I took 2 extra strength tylenol and its taken the edge off, but I'm still having them

Yes, very bad cramps especially on #1. Before I left dr. office for #2 I asked him if I could use a heating pad b/c they were so bad last time, he said that is fine. Hope they get better. Just take it easy if you can.

I didn't have any cramping with my IUI but I have heard of others that have had that issue. Sorry you are not feeling well but I hope at the end of your journey you have a . Best wishes!

Yes really bad!

I had severe cramps after my IUI, but it was because they had to dilate my cervix during the procedure. Hope you feel better soon.

I had cramps after my IUIs. Since they have irritated everything down there it's pretty common. Try to avoid a heating pad though, you want to avoid changing your body temp right now.

I HAD CRAMPS BEFORE MY IUI ACTUALLY, I THINK OVULATION CRAMPS. MY IUI WAS TOTALLY PAINLESS, BUT STARTED GETTING CRAMPY THE DAY AFTER AND STILL AM CRAMPY. I HOPE THAT IS A GOOD SIGN . THAT YOU GET A BFP AND ALL THE CRAMPS ARE WORTH IT..KEEP US POSTED.
