Nurse Zainab

A woman came into the hospital shouting:

“Nurse! I’m pregnant! 😭😭”

Everyone was surprised because she had an IUD.

She said, “But how? I just had a baby barely 5 months ago!” 😩😂

She was completely confused because she believed the IUD meant pregnancy was impossible.

But here’s the thing 👇🏽

An IUD is very effective, but no contraceptive method is 100% effective. In rare cases, pregnancy can happen.

One reason is that the IUD may come out (expulsion) without the woman realizing it. If the device is no longer in the uterus, it cannot prevent pregnancy. Sometimes the strings may also no longer be felt because they have moved higher or the device has shifted.

So if you have an IUD and suddenly notice pregnancy symptoms or a missed period, don't assume pregnancy is impossible—take a pregnancy test and contact your healthcare provider.

And if pregnancy occurs while an IUD is still in place, medical evaluation is important because ectopic pregnancy needs to be ruled out.

Imagine having a 5-month-old baby and finding out another baby is already on the way! 😭😂

Did your pregnancy symptoms start before you even knew you were pregnant?

Some women will say, “I just knew something was different.”

Others will say, “Nothing! I was eating normally until that pregnancy test shocked me.”

And some will be like, “I thought it was stress!”

Which one were you? 👇🏽

Good night bestie's ❤️❤️

Pregnancy pillow… is it really necessary? Let’s talk!

As your belly gets bigger, finding a comfortable sleeping position can become a whole struggle.

A pregnancy pillow can help by:

Supporting your belly — especially when lying on your side.

Supporting your knees and hips — which may make side sleeping more comfortable.

Supporting your back — it can help you maintain a more comfortable position.

Making it easier to get comfortable especially as pregnancy progresses.

But remember, you don't have to buy a special pregnancy pillow. Regular pillows can also be arranged between your knees, under your belly, or behind your back for support.
