I had surgery in July 2014, I'm down 122 lbs. At the end of October I had the Paragard IUD put in. I am a couple of weeks late for my period, but wasn't too concerned because I just figured that with the weight loss and the IUD my period was out of wack. Well I just took 2 pregnancy tests and they are positive. I'm going to the doctor tomorrow, but wanted to see if anyone else has been through this? This is not what I was expecting or planning.....

Didn't he test yu before putting it in?

Congratulations. There are many members who've become pregnant post surgery.

Talk to your ob and make sure that she understands your lifestyle and can counsel you appropriately on Vitamins and nutrition need you have

Yes, I wasn't pregnant when they put it in... I even had my period in November... I must've gotten pregnant in December with the IUD.
