could I have conceived with a coil?

[bellababe]

See thread on late period - this girl needs advice!!

I did, but its very unlikely!

I know you did, but I think the title is misleading - not everyone reads the conception threads, but this is more a health one. A friend of mine conceived with a coil ( when her twins were 6 mths old!) but I have no idea of the likelihood of this happening so don't feel qualifeid to answer. Thought opening up another thread migth bring in some people who do know.

oops - I read yours as I did give advice - but you meant I did conceive - oops!!

I've got a funny shaped uterus though which is why I managed it. Generally the failure rate is pretty low. Only risk is that because it was so new that it may have come out/not be in properly? Perhaps a trip to the docs/family planning would be good?
