I got pregnant with my IUD in place
| Mon, 11-22-2004 - 9:37am |
Two days ago my husband and I found out that we are pregnant. Considering that we had less then a 1% chance of getting pregnant with the IUD in place we are a little shocked! Has anyone else gotten pregnant with an IUD? Any complications? problems? were you able to carry the baby to term???? I have my first apoointment today with the head ObGyn at our hospital to see what they have to say. We are so excited about this pregnancy but are unsure of all of the hurdles that we may be facing.

This can be a touchy situation. If it's possible, they'll probably want to remove the IUD, but that can cause problems for the embryo. Leaving the IUD in place isn't a really good idea either, but I think this kind of thing is handled on a case-by-case basis.
Good luck to you and your husband!! I do hope that everything turns out well and that you can proceed with the pregnancy with all the excitement that you have now! Please let us know how you're doing, okay?
