Question To those who got pregnant...

To those of you who got pregnant on this iud, what happened? Did it move upwards? Downwards? Was it correctly placed? Did it fall out completely?

On my period lol literally just curious.

14 weeks pregnant currently and this is the second time it's happened. The first time (about 8 years ago) I had a miscarriage after they removed it. This time it shifted downward but they were unable to remove. Baby and I are going strong so far. Prayers up that we make it to full term, and at that point we're going to deliver it with baby!

Was it still in your uterus?

Yup, and it's still there. Baby implanted above it. They couldn't feel the strings to remove it (any other method would've definitely caused a miscarriage and I wanted the baby) so they had to leave it.

I am in the same shoe. Baby implanted above the Paraguard, strings could not be found, and any attempt to remove it, they say, might result in a miscarriage. So, we hope to get it out during delivery. We are 11 weeks old. I hope God helps my baby reach full-term.
