Week 1

The cramps are still there, but again, more manageable each day. Sometimes I'm surprised at how painful they can be, but this doesn't usually last long. Still, annoying.

This is a serious TMI moment, but it's related to the IUD, so I'm just going to roll with it.

Since getting the IUD, I have had a major change in discharge. Usually, it's just the white or clear stuff, depending in if I'm ovulating, and if I am ovulating, I get the stringy, egg white mucous stuff. Only happens on the day I'm ovulating, and just once. 

Well, now I have that egg white mucous stuff almost everyday. It's kinda gross, and sometimes it has a tinge of blood. And this is also a common side effect I did not come across upon my initial research. Most women say they just get used to it, one woman said it very, very gradually eased off. Whatever happens, I guess I just have to deal with it.
