IUD Pain, help!

Mikal

So I got my first IUD, the copper one, put in today at 11am, it’s now 2pm and I’m still in a lot of pain. It went in fine with just a little cramping, but has been getting worse. There are only a couple comfortable positions and my heating pad is my best friend. Anyone else experience this when getting their IUD in, and how long did it last?

I’m supposed to be at work at 4, but I don’t think that’s gonna happen if this keeps up 😳
