I had an ectopic pregnancy in January - when I found out I was pregnant I didn’t get a positive until a week after I was due on.
This time around I got a positive a week before my period was due! I’m feeling hopeful but obviously driving myself insane waiting for our early scan!!
I just wondered when you had an ectopic did you ever get an early positive? I read that a late positive is a sign but couldn’t find anything about early! 
Dear Laco2425279,
Whispered congratulations on your pregnancy,
Unfortunately timing of pregnancy test or how strong the positive line is are not reliable tests to check whether a pregnancy is ectopic or not.
I know it seems never ending waiting for early scans, you have friends here who understand. Try to keep yourself busy and mind occupied.
Sadly I do have to remind you to seek urgent medical advice with any bleeding, abdominal pain, shoulder tip pain or feeling dizzy and unwell.
Sending much love and positive thoughts,
