"ladies! i just got skyla put in yesterday morning. so it&#039;s been a little over 24 hours for me. i was freaking out because a lot of reviews said it was so painful to insert, i even read one where she said she cried afterwards. in my opinion it really wasn&#039;t that bad. i took a 600 mg ibuprofen and i also took a tramadol, which i&#039;m prescribed to for back pain, before i went in to the dr&#039;s. it did hurt, for literally about 2 seconds, but nothing like some of the reviews said. it was more like a sharp quick pressure pain. it came and went immediately. very quick. i&#039;m currently still spotting very lightly and do have some cramps but they are just like very light period cramps, nothing a little advil won&#039;t take care of."
