IUD and Pregnant?
Tue, 06-27-2006 - 9:01am

I have a lil girl who is almost 2. About 3 months after I had her I got an IUD, since I can never remember to take pills. Anyhow, things have been great since.

Anyhow for the past 5 days I've had that "oh my" feeling. My breasts are so tender I can barely stand to pick my lil girl up. Since having the IUD I don't have AF visits I have nothing to gauge (3 years with no AF, it's been wonderful).

Does anyone know of the likelihood of getting pregnant with IUD? I was told very slight, but we all know how that goes. I took a test yesterday and it came back negative. Do you have to be so far along in order for the at-home things to work? I'm just a mess right now.

Any comments would help.

Thanks,
Melissa
