Is it normal to have sex after this ?

Me and my husband have been married for 2 years we have a daughter who is 3 almost 4. I just had my first IUD put in this week. Me and my husband are wanting to have another baby. This IUD was just suppose to help my periods not be so bloody but I don't know if it'll also effect with me getting pregnant. I'm also worried it'll come out if we do it I don't know if it'll be safe. Is it normal to have sex after getting an IUD ? Can I still get pregnant ?

    I dint think it will come out during sex. But to be sure I would suggest you to talk to your doctor. You will find the best advice there.

    What do you think IUD's are for? IT'S A CONTRACEPTIVE DEVICE and is more likely to make you bleed more heavily than reduce bleeding. It's inside your uterus, how could it possibly come out?

    I find it hard to believe someone who's already had one child could be so ignorant about how her own body works. Surely you were told when it would be ok to have sex again and surely you were also told that no, you almost certainly won't get pregnant with an IUD.

    IUD is meant to prevent pregnancy. Having an IUD inserted while pregnant can be fatal or damaging to yourself or baby.

    - Mirena IUD (5 years - hormonal), becomes more effective over time as the hormones thicken the fluids in your uterus, which prevents both sperm and eggs from entering. However, you shouldn't have unprotected sex the first week of getting inserted, because the chance of pregnancy is high. With Mirena, your periods will eventually stop or have shorter days, because the thicken fluids will slow or stop the building of uterine lining.

    - Paraguard IUD (11 - 12 years Copper, non-hormonal) will start preventing pregnancy immediately due to copper being toxic to sperm, but you'll still have your periods.

    The chances of pregnancy are slim with both of these devices depending on which one you get and whether you followed directions properly, check the string regularly (lightly touch, don't pull). Also, it is possible it can come out, so watch for warning signs of it slipping through the cervix (ex: Extreme bleeding, extreme abdominal pain, string hanging outside the vagina, etc); once it starts slipping out, you're no longer protected from pregnancy and you should see your doctor immediately.

    My best friend was crippled by an IUD in Afghanistan.
