IUD and 3 positive tests. Need advice/support

I posted this in a different sub and was told I'd get support here!

I am like completely beside myself.. as the title says I have a (copper) IUD, and I have had 3 pregnancy tests all positive.

I have PMDD so I know exactly where I should be at in my cycle (I'm 7 days late).

I had gallbladder surgery 1 month ago and just assumed I was late bc of the stress I went through with my gallbladder...

I went to planned parenthood, they didn't have an ultrasound tech, and neither did the urgent care I went to. I am trying to rule out ectopic pregnancy..

I just like idk I've never felt like this. I'm completely terrified, sad, scared, semi happy?.. idk I just don't know what to do. I mean I'm going to call my OB GYN Monday at 7am when they open! But I ultimately don't know if I want to keep my pregnancy or not if I am pregnant.

It's crazy. I'm a birthing doula. I'm a nanny (primarily for infants) like I LOVE this stuff. I'm so passionate about it. And I have an amazing partner. I just really don't feel like I'm ready for this..and unsure if I am wanting this right now.

I'm scared. Lost..and would just love to talk to other women about this but am not wanting to share with family or friends rn. Can anyone offer any advice or comfort or anything?

Thank you. 🩷
