“When all the nurses come in to see a baby with his IUD”, Violet captioned the video.
In a series of videos she shared, Violet revealed that she decided to take a pregnancy test out of precaution because she had been nauseous for the past two weeks.
She wrote: “So I had my Skyla IUD for nine months before I got pregnant and the reason that I decided to take a test was because I was feeling nauseous for about two weeks and I would just throw up every once in a while.
“I didn’t know what was going on and so I took a test and it was positive right away.”
She advised her followers to take a test if they were experiencing any symptoms, even if they were on birth control.
Intrauterine device (IUD) is believed to be more than 99% effective in preventing pregnancies. Yet, a number of women have been reported to get pregnant while on it.
