I just found out today that I am pregnant....again. My first and only child has just turned 8 months old. My husband and I decided on the IUD for our contraception about 8 weeks after our son was born. I haven't been feeling well and my period is a couple weeks late, I took a test today and it's positive.
I hear the there is a 20% chance of miscariage when you have the IUD taken out. Has anyone ever gotten pregnant with an IUD before, and if so, what were the procedures and how soon before you know whether or not you baby was going to be okay?
My husband and I have talked about it and we have decided that we would like to have the baby if we can, so any advice anyone can give on how to up our chances of not miscarrying would be great. Oh, and before anyone goes the good care route, I have a wonderful team of mid-wives who took care of my first pregnancy and I have an appointment in the morning.
