Is IUI intercourse?? lol sorry I dont know all the abbreviations

I just did my 3rd iui a few hours ago and the cramping is normal. My cramping usually last about 3 days. Good luck, fingers crossed for you!

I am on day 6 of my TWW after my second IUI, my first was a chemical pregnancy. I had the twinges with both and our NP said that is a good indication that there was a good ovulation. You may also get cramps from the procedure. I had mild cramps on and off for a lot of my TWW last time and it was a BFP so I think it can be a good thing. Good luck!

IUI means intrauterine insemination. They take "washed" sperm, thread a catheter into the uterus, and implant it. It is usually the step before IVF. :)
