It's all about timin: It takes approximately 9 days from conception until a pregnancy can be detected by a blood test. If you can feel the string of the iud it's in place. To be sure wait a few more days and get a pregnancy test.

GYN exam: to make sure that the IUD is in place. The cramping may be hormonal; however, may be due to IUD-GYN exam ASAP!
