I found out that I have an ectopic preg,
which I first thought was a misscarraige.
Anyway, tomorrow I am getting the
methotrexate shot and want to know if
anyone has been through this before. What
should I expect? I am having back pain
and cramping now, will it get worse?

Is the baby in your tube?? Did they tell
you. You dont have to let them abort the
baby---i dont care what they say the baby
can live--but it is dangerous for you.
You will have to be monitored very
closely. You dont have to let them kill
it. Now, if it is in a tube it is very
very much more dangerous and it prolly
should be taken out.
They always say it is not viable--but they
have proven that even a man can carry a
baby in his abdomen. Now they also go by
the hcg levels to tell them if the baby is
growing properly. (sometimes in ectopic
the baby is not growing properly)
sometimes even in ectopic the baby is
progressing just fine, and they take them
out anyway.
I am right now pregnant with "ectopic"
pregnancy--but it was a promise from god,
and I have no uterus, so it would have to
be "out of place" (ectopic) for I have no
uterus to house the little guy. I am in
my 9th week.

They couldn't find anything really. I
have been bleeding so heavily all week
with a lot of clotting and pain. My hcg
is less than 200 and staying there and I
would be 5-6 weeks along...This isn't
going to work. I dn't want to risk my
life for something that isn't going to
happen anyway, I dont feel pregnant
anymore, my breasts are deflated and I
have no pregnant feelings anymore.
We will try again in nov/dec

If miscarried dont need it.
