According to @tiredfeminist_, the pregnancy went undetected for months, and during the scan, the IUD was nowhere to be found. She joked, “I think the baby ate it.”

The post quickly went viral, sparking debate and disbelief across social media.

See some reactions below:

@Official__Phumi: “Omg 😭. This is why you need to always check/feel the strings of the IUD so you’ll know when it’s shifted.”

@MKAYMAMPONE: “What are the side effects of IUD, my doctor has recommended it because of iron deficiency. But I’m scared of birth controls, I always get migraines and gain weight.”

@becomingShika: “This is literally my story, except for the pregnant part. I expelled my IUD after 4 weeks of insertion. When the gynae did the dildo scan thingie, she found nothing 😭😭😭 my question of where it is will remain answered?”

@madzana_sanga: “I had so much confidence in IUD…if I can tell you, my confidence in IUD is turning 7yrs in Sept.”

@Papa_Ibeji: “May be she removed it to get pregnant but needs an excuse for the partner?”

@ntwanie: “Bathong when you say cryptic you mean the baby wasn’t visible to scans till now or she hasn’t had any need for medical consultations for the better part of the year til now?”
