umm I was 6 weeks postpartum it didn't hurt it was like a small cramp. but my mother in law got it and she hasn't had a child in about 11 years and it hurt her. so it depends how long will it be untill you had a baby?

does it hurt when they put it in .?

there's two different ones. there's the mirena and the paragaurd. I had the paragaurd which is for ten years I have no idea why my doctor preferred it but I went along with it. I've had the pill before and I don't know I had no problems at all with the iud. my periods got shorter, less painful and you don't have to remember to take it or anything. I will probably get it again after the next pregancy. they both have different side effects and they work different on different people so just make sure you talk about it with your doctor.

how is the iud im actually planning on getting it in march when my next depo shot is due
