Hi, I had an ectopic in October, it was my first pregnancy and it was so heartbreaking. My period was late and took a pregnancy test which has come back positive! But I’ve been having pains/cramps on the side my ectopic was on and mine was managed with expectant management. I’m so scared it is happening again I feel sick! I just feel so anxious and we just can’t fathom going through that all again! When should I contact EPU?
Hi Reb it’s so scary isn’t it! I had an ectopic last year and found out I’m pregnant last week. The same as you keep thinking I can feel cramps and panicking. I called I EPU straight away and they got me in this week, I’ve had bloods and a scan taken but I’m not far gone enough yet for them to see anything so back again next week for another scan. I would call them straight away and they can tell you when to go in for a scan and blood tests x
Hi Erin,
Thank you for your reply, whispered congratulations. Yess I need to ring EPU I think I’m just so scared to do that even 
as I’m very early and know they won’t see much. I think I just want to stay in this bubble of thinking it will all be OK and calling them brings it back from last time. But I will definitely get on to them and see what they say. Hope your scan goes well next week and they are able to see more!
Aw thank you, whispered congratulations to you too. I completely understand how you’re feeling. My EPU have been amazing so far they called today and want me to have my 3rd lot of bloods taken tomorrow which I didn’t expect just to monitor. I’ve had a lot of cramping today and called them in a panic but they said to wait until my bloods/scan as my levels are just not high enough to see anything. Hoping for the best for you xx
Thank you, yes I think I’m just overthinking it all as well which is not helping but it’s just hard not to! Glad they have been great it makes such a difference. Hope the cramping calms down and its good news from the blood test! Fingers crossed for you xx
