I've heard that these pregnancies a lot of times don't have good outcomes. But I haven't looked into it recently. I think they leave the IUD in.

It wouldn't necessarily hurt you or the baby, but you'd need to be examined to be certain the embryo is growing in the uterus, and not somewhere else.  If you do get pg with an IUD, I think they generally like to leave the IUD in place during the pg because removing it could cause a miscarriage.

Hi!

I found out I was pregnant with my IUD in on October 29th. My OB told me that an IUD does not hurt the baby but that it must be removed immediatly to prevent infection and premature labour. The removal of the IUD can increase the chances of MC but leaving it in causes more complications and higher chances of pre term birth. Overall, the IUD being in doubles the risk of MC. I sadly MC on Nov 22 and it may or may not have been due to the IUD or it's removal?? I'm trying to conceive right now.
