Re: either preg while on mirena or it fell out

I had my baby 8 months ago. He was conceived while I had the Mirena in. I had him a month early due to developing preclampsia. I'm not sure if the Mirena caused that, but I have 4 other children and didn't have preclampsia for any of those pregnancies. Preclampsia is where your blood pressure gets too high and can cause seizures and even death. So make sure they monitor your blood pressure. I spent a lot of time at the hospital my last month of being pregnant. Also my baby has had a lot of stomach problems. He has been on Zantac since he was about a month old. He spent the first 7 months of his life crying, puking, and eating constantly. He has had some weight issues also. He is getting better as he gets older, but he is still vomiting everyday. Just not as much or as often as before. The first 7 months were a nightmare tho. Again I don't know if Mirena is to blame for any of it, but none of my other children had these problems. I didn't realize I was pregnant until he had been in there with the Mirena for 2 months. I had it removed immediately. Other than the stomach problems and being a little under weight he seems pretty healthy tho. Good luck to you and congratulations on your pregnancy. :)
