Just personally, if the cervix is gona be even smaller at 8 weeks than it was at 6 weeks then I wouldn't wanna wait that long.... Hurt enough going in at 6 weeks!!!
Not that I am ever gona have another IUD, but hypothetically.............. LOL
Surprised that you say it can take up to a year to settle in though, I was told that it was a month which is why they recheck placement after it has been in for a month. ]]> Tue, 05 May 2009 22:28:17 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26348&PID=679098&title=iud-information#679098 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26348&PID=678853&title=iud-information#678853 Author: AandCsmum

In doing some research this arvo....Busymum I thought of you, plus some other info.

You can get the IUD removed & start trying the next day for a baby.

If you want to know if you are going to react to the copper IUD, buy a cheap copper bracelet & wear for a week, no reaction to it not a prob.

The copper IUD can increase your bleeding, the hormone one can decrease it to nothing.

Personally if I was looking at getting an IUD fitted post partum again, I'd go for closer to 8 weeks to allow the cervix to close up more.

It can also take 6 months to a year to settle in ]]> Tue, 05 May 2009 19:10:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26348&PID=678853&title=iud-information#678853
