Baby Matheus was delivered alongside the copper intrauterine device, which was joking placed in his hand by the doctor performing the surgery.
A clip of him clenching he device was posted to social media, captioned: ‘Holding my victory trophy: the IUD couldn’t handle me!’
His mother, Queidy Araujo de Oliveira, had been using the IUD for two years when she unexpectedly found out she was pregnant. The failure rate was just 0.6 per cent.
‘When we least expected it, during an IUD follow-up, during the ultrasound to check on the condition, I found out I was pregnant.'
Her husband, who had been waiting for a vasectomy, joked online that the "factory is now closed."
