Abdominal pain after IUI

Has anyone experienced abdominal pain after IUI and what was the outcome. I was inseminated 2 days ago and I have been experiencing somewhat severe abdominal pain today until I took some Tylenol suggested by Dr's office. Now the pain is almost gone but I can still feel mild tenderness when I press on my lower abdomen.

    Sorry I didn't realize I posted the same thing 3 times; I had an error message after the first try.

    Simple,
    I have not had severe abdominal pain. I have only had mild pains or tenderness if you would. I wonder what that is about?

    Etiffault, good luck to you tommorow. On the day of the IUI itself, I felt funny but not cramping as bad as I did 2 days later. That severe pain (cramps) lasted for only 1 day and I am almost completely pain free 5 days after IUI. I sometimes have period pains but they are very mild. So I think you should be fine tomorrow...most people feel nothing at all. Keep us posted.

    Well, it's been two days since my first IUI... still feel prety crampy, better than yesterday though, so I guess that's a good thing. I am pretty naceous... has anyone experienced that? I go back on the 29th for a blood test...what is the soonest I can take a home preg. test? This whole thing is pretty new to me. Simplesteps... when do you think you'll give in and test :-)

    Effault, I am glad your IUI was uneventful. You should feel better each day past IUI, I do. I am very nervous about testing, right now the barometer I am using is my period which is due any day and I can actually feel it. I hope I can make it to the 14th day when I will definitely test. I have very little nausea but I have read on this board about many people who do.

    Etiffault,

    I always started testing at day 10. I got my BFP at day 12 with First response. Hoever, I would not take any negative test before day 14 very seriously. A positive is a positive whenwever you get it unless you sre usinf trigger shots, in which case you can get a false positive until the shot clears your system.
