"Hey ladies, Many of the reviews are terrifying and because of that I went into my appointment very nervous. I watched cat videos while waiting for the doctor to come in to help my stressing. (It worked). 

So what it was like: the majority of the procedure felt just like I was getting a Pap smear. I tend to be sensitive to the speculum so I had some discomfort with that. Not until the doctor said "okay you're going to feel some pressure" did I feel a strong sharp pain. It was gone as quickly as it happened, just made me gasp a bit. Then one more sensation like that of the actual placement and it was over. 

The cramps for the hour afterward were very uncomfortable. Home with ibuprofen and I feel good with slight cramping. remember to breathe!"
