IUD para guard in today ...

JESSIKA
So today I went in for my postpartum appt and got the coper IUD para guard  . The reason why I got this one and not the mirena is because the Para guard has no hormones which means no hormonal side affects . I was afraid of gain weight , acne and the mood swings ... 
The process of my doct placing it in was super fast and pain less , took about 5 min and that was all! I'm having little cramping and sporting .  My doct told me something I didn't know that if you are breast feeding you won't get your period until maybe 6 months (everyone is different) so this iud should not interfere with your period . She also said to wait one more week for sex .. . Super excited I'm hoping everything goes well with this iud since I have read horrible things but I thought I'd give it a try. 
The only main side affects the para guard has is bad cramping and heavy periods ... Won't know until I get my first pp period.  Wish me luck:)
