I got pregnant from IUI in early August, and after months of thinking I was pregnant just to get a BFN, I was convinced that the IUI hadn't worked because I had carmps that felt just like mild period cramps. I cramped all the way up to about 9 or 10 weeks. I panicked about it at the beginning of course, but everyone said it was normal (including my doctor) I'm now 21 weeks with a healthy baby boy! We even had a scare about 6 weeks ago where I started bleeding heavily and cramping, and he's still doing well! (NOT related to the early cramping though!) Good luck with everything!!!
thank you! I am just so nervous! I did 4 iui's on clomid before this one and whenever I went for my bw 2 weeks after the IUI they would ask how I felt and I would always say I am so crampy so I know AF is coming - and they would always tell me that AF symptoms and pregnancy symptoms are about the same - I just want this one to stay put in there so bad that I am really starting to worry myself when I feel the cramps and noticing more discharge - but I did read that that is normal as well as long as it is not brown or pink and its not.
I just came across this posting from you awhile back. Can you tell me if you felt anything during the 2 WW prior to you taking the test? I just had my first IUI with Gonel-F on thur/friday. I guess right now I am 4dpIUI. I Hate this waiting part.
Cramping is completely normal during early pregnancy, especially as your uterus begins to stretch and grow and pull on the ligaments. If you are feeling the pains on one side more than another it could be from the corpus luteum cyst on your ovary from where you ovulated. Unless you are having major crampign (like worse than period cramps) and you are bleeding, I wouldn't worry.
