Abstract
Different reliable methods of contraception are used. However, women still get pregnant when it fails. It would be dramatic when a lady has an intrauterine device in place and still she conceive and delivers a healthy baby at term. Failure rate of copper containing intrauterine contraceptive device (IUCD) is usually less than 2 women per 100 women years. Pregnancy continued with IUCD in situ can result in adverse pregnancy and neonatal outcome in comparison to its removal at an early stage of pregnancy. Early detection of pregnancy with IUCD in situ and proper management are very important to avoid many obstetric emergencies later on. The reported case is precisely the same kind of case, where the lady had left with no other option but to continue her pregnancy due to lack of required medical facility early in her gestation, but had a favourable maternal and neonatal outcome.
