"i&#039;m 18, i got pregnant in the summer of 2015. i lost the baby about a month and a half ago due to hydrops and i&#039;ve been doing okay since. my doctor recommended the mirena iud and i thought it&#039;d be a good prevention of pregnancy seeing as getting pregnant again probably wouldn&#039;t be the best thing for my future and taking a pill everyday didn&#039;t seem good seeing as i&#039;m a very forgetful person. the reviews i&#039;ve read seemed absolutely terrible and i was pretty freaked out but i got the iud 2 days ago and so far so good. the pain varies from person to person so i can&#039;t say it won&#039;t be painful, mine just felt like period cramps and then some mild pains after as if they were normal cramps but not terrible; no mood swings. hoping it works for me."
