Hi Annie1991,
I am so sorry to hear of your previous ectopic pregnancy and loss. I know that the thought of another pregnancy can bring up a range of thoughts and emotions.
The most important thing is to take care of yourself and take one step at a time. It is important to find out if you are pregnant and a pregnancy test will confirm this case. As you’ve had a previous ectopic, you are also able to received an early scan and you are able to contact your nearest EPU to schedule this scan.
I know it may feel nerve-wracking to take a pregnancy test, not knowing what the results will be or how you will feel about them. However, it will also help you take the next steps. We are here for you in each step.
With good wishes,
Michele
