2nd pregnancy- IUD in place

Hello ladies. I'm curious to know as to who here got pregnant with an IUD? I'm not certain as to how many weeks I am yet. I believe about 5 weeks or so, but I have the IUD in place. I'm still waiting to see my obgyn. If this happened to you, what procedures were taken? Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

    It's likely it's an ectopic pregnancy. That's a huge risk getting pregnant with an IUD because it is meant to block implantation in your uterus.

    I've known a few women who have gotten pregnant with IUDs, but I'm not sure what the processes were during their pregnancy.  Their kiddos are beautiful and healthy now!  I would definitely get in to see the doctor as soon as possible though. 
    On our way to baby#2!  Praying for a healthy and happy delivery next June!

    I'm just waiting on my family doctor to confirm my appointment with my obgyn. Thank you ladies. I'm very concerned because of all the information I've been reading online.

    I'm just curious, do you have Mirena or Paragard?

    I have known several people who have gotten pregnant with the IUD in place.  It seems like most of the ones I know who had Mirena did have to remove the IUD during pregnancy.  I have at least 1 friend who had the paraguard who continued the entire pregnancy with the IUD in place and had a healthy baby.  I do know your risk of miscarriage is increased and I'm sure the course of action will depend greatly on where implantation occurred.  Good luck!

    I would get into see your OB ASAP. My husband was actually conceived with an IUD in place...thank goodness for that, but it creates some risky conditions for a pregnancy.

    Good luck, I hope everything turns out ok.

    A good friend of mine became pregnant with the Paragard in place. Turned out to be twins. She left it in place and delivered 2, healthy, full-term girls.
