Pregnant after Ectopic. Early scan tomorrow morning.

Hi everyone, I’ve been reading your stories and its filling me with some hope, all though I’m still worried to get my hopes up.

Last October I had an ectopic pregnancy which resulted in keyhole surgery loosing my right tube. It was a pretty awful time but I have a very supportive partner, family and my little boy definitely kept me smiling. It came as a huge shock as I had a great pregnancy with my little boy.

So we waited for 3 cycles and started trying again and fell pregnant straight the way, I really couldn’t believe it when I did the test :shock: the day after I rang my docs and they got me booked in straight the way at the early pregnancy unit for when I’m 6 weeks (which is now tomorrow). The past couple of weeks I’ve had alot of different emotions, every little twinge I’ve thought oh no not again… Also felt really excited aswel but then try to stop myself. I’ve been keeping everything crossed. This morning I’ve woke up feeling abit sore on my left hand side (my remaining tube) so now I’m really worrying myself, I don’t no if it’s all just in my head or not… I suppose it really could be anything? Even a few bits and bobs moving around already for baby. I really hope so.

Fingers crossed for tomorrow xxx

Good luck! I hope you find out that it is where it is supposed to be so you can relax a bit!

Hi Oscar! I am in a very similar situation to you - ectopic in October, just got a series of nice looking BFPs a week ago first month of trying after 3 cycles (I was treated with MTX). I am booked in for a US at 5w3d so still a few days to go (currently 4w5d) but I am feeling all sorts of niggles and twinges in what I feel are my tubes. I think its natural to be anxious given what you have gone through, remember we are all more sensitive to every feeling of pain post ectopic so don’t stress too much. I wish you so much luck for your scan!! Fx everything is where it should be and you have a boring 9 months ahead!
