Hey ladies, I’ve posted in the other boards but I really need some TLC. Got my BFP (big fat positive (pregnancy test)) thursday I wa so happy. It seems like as soon as I got my BFP (big fat positive all the pain began. Not only am I cramping on the side the tube was removed but my good side. My mid back is hurting and Im having constant headaches. I went to the ER yesterday for pain and my hcg level was 300 at 3 weeks and 6 days. They couldn’t see anything in my uterus either. I’m so scared. My family is telling me it’s no big deal, but they haven’t been through SIDS and an ectopic. I’m very grateful for my 2 year old daughter but I love this baby too… I had an HSG in June that showed the right side was clear, but even with that I know there’s a risk. I have had two successful pregnancies 2014, 2016 and have never ha problems conceiving. Has anyone else had pain in their pregnancy after ectopic ?
Dear Ambs097,
Whispered congratulations on your pregnancy,
After an ectopic pregnancy, finding we are pregnant again can be a mix of emotions and I can completely understand your feeling nervous. It is perfectly normal to feel scared after the ordeal you have endured. I also felt twinges and aches after my ectopic pregnancy, particularly when I next felt pregnant. My mind started racing and I was only really able to relax to some degree after my early scan. It is a nerve-wracking time and you have a friend here who understands how you are feeling.
Sending much love,
Karen x
