Hey there! I had IUI on Oct 12th, and I had cramping immediatly after IUI for a few days. Then something possessed me to test at only 10dpiui, and I got my positive. I have been feeling a lot of AF cramps since 10days and onward. I am 14dpiui now and still no AF. My bloodwork confirmed pregnancy but my level was only 11 (at 10dpiui). I have more bloodwork today.

But yeah, for me cramping was totally normal! And it feels just like AF too which I know is scary, but others have told me that it is totally normal. Start to take care of yourself by drinking a lot of water and eating healthy for the little bean(s)!

Good luck!! SSBD!

Yeah I started to research and yes it is normal to cramp.  But I am still having them and its 5 days past IUI.  My bbs are killing me but that is due to the HCG trigger shot.  What a mess!  But I am praying the outcme will be positive.  Thank you! GL

Good luck Kitty!  your sound early - but could be normal - I had my 1st IVF on 10/06 and mild cramps started the very next day and have continued since - and if you possible O'd the day prior - then your little egg may have already been in place for the IUI...  Each IUI cycle I have done - I was able to feel my eggs release - very weird uncomfortable cramps on each side.  Happy thoughts!!

Baby dust & Prayers!!
