Hi,
I just wanted to ask how many of you had strong pregnancy symptoms when your pregnancy was confirmed as being in the right place? I had an ectopic in 2012 (had right tube out) and then went onto have healthy baby boy (but had really strong pregnancy symptoms with him). I am pregnant again and I have no pregnancy symptoms. I am about 4 weeks pregnant and had bloods taken but hormone level is only 184. Also had a scan today and they couldn’t see anything in my womb or in remaining tube. Feeling so worried about everything. Got to go back for a further blood test on Monday. I am not feeling hopeful as I didn’t have many pregnancy symptoms with my ectopic pregnancy although more than I am experiencing now!
Dear Brooke,
It is completely natural to feel concerned given your previous ectopic pregnancy and loss.
I know from my own personal experience and that of close friends that every pregnancy is different and we may not have the same feelings/experiences with each.
From an ectopic pregnancy point of view, it is important that you seek urgent medical help if you experience abdominal pain, bleeding or shoulder tip pain.
I am sending positive thoughts and lots of love for Monday.

Thank you Karen, your message is very reassuring. I am just so convinced it is another ectopic pregnancy. I am feeling very nervous about my blood tests results but I have also read that hormone levels can double even with an ectopic pregnancy. I also had a scan at 4weeks 2 days but they couldn’t see anything. The sonographer said that she would expect to see a small sack with a white line around it even at this early stage so that has made me even more nervous and convinced. I will let you know how I get on.

Sometimes you don't have symptoms but your pregnancy is normal. I think you start worrying too soon. Maybe, you should think about something else to put your mind off the issue? Constant worrying won't do your baby any good. Try to think how you'll care for the baby when it's born instead, [[role-paying games](http://motherhow.com/baby-alive-doll-and-the-role-playing-games/) can help to do it. :)](http://motherhow.com/baby-alive-doll-and-the-role-playing-games/)
