Spotting after IUI?
Hi ladies! I was wondering if any of you have ever spotted after an IUI before? Yesterday I had an IUI and my doctor had to use the rigid catheter and she did say that I had a little bleeding from it on the outside of my cervix. She said that was ok, but I guess I am still worried about it harming my chances of conceiving this month. I spotted a little all yesterday and then some this morning too with a little spot of blood when I wiped. My hubby and I did BD last night so not sure if that may have contributed a little more to the spotting.

I did not have spotting after my IUI but I did have cramping. I wouldn't worry- a sensitive cervix will not affect anything going on "up in there". If it starts to increase in volume, look bright red, etc you should call your doc but I wouldn't worry especially if they told you to expect some spotting (if I recall they said I might have some too, I just didn't).
I did have spotting after a vaginal ultrasound at 7 weeks and it freaked me out- but everything is totally fine. We just have a sensitive cervix from all the hormones.
I also had my ovaries twist around on my Fallopian tubes after my IUI because I didn't take it easy with my swollen stimmed ovaries. It's very rare (so don't worry!!) but I was in the ER and after that completely sure that it would have messed everything up and I wouldn't be pregnant. I'm 20w5d with twin boys and everything is great.
So my point is that worrying is natural but try not to! Your body knows what to do despite the fact that you've had to do a lot to coax it into cooperating so far. The truth is of course that we can't control it anyway, so flooding your system with stress hormones worrying about things you can't control won't do you or potential sticky bean any good. Just relax, celebrate that in two weeks you could be pregnant and just enjoy your hubby!
Thank you so much for your reply!! That does make me feel a lot better about it. I think my spotting is stopping. Congratulations on your twin boys and I hope you have a healthy rest of your pregnancy as well!! My hubby had an awesome sperm count so I am just hoping they did their job with the one follicle that I had this cycle! I should find out on the 15th with a blood test! Thanks again!!
