Ectopic Pregnancy Posted: 01-16-07 02:29am
I had an ectopic pregnancy about a year
ago and they said it would be less likely
for me to ever have a kid . Well my
period don't start till next week but I
feel like i'm pregnant I have the symptoms
of itchy boobs and headaches... The only
thing is if I am i'm scared it might be
growing in the wrong spot again cuz I feel
like theres something in my right abdomen
close to my uterus...Is this a sign thats
its going to be in the wrong spot again?

We cant tell you if your haviing another
ectopic pregnancy you would have to go to
the doctors and have them check it out. I
had a ectopic back in august 2005 and the
doctors said that my chances of having
another ectopic were higher and that my
chances of having a baby went down a
little bit every ectopic you have slims
your chances even more well thats what I
was told anyway. And now in 37 weeks
preggo on thursday. I would try not to
worry about it but if you are concerned
about it you should go to the doctors

So there is hope ... Well I hope if I am
pregnant I just don't want it to be
another ectopic pregnancy . Because they
said the same thing to me after I had the
surgery to remove it.

If I were you i'd wait for a pregnancy
test and if it reveals positive then go
straight to your gp. There really isn't
much harm in waiting as it isn't big
enough to cause any damage yet. Ectopics
are dangerous after 5 weeks. How do I
know this? Because my mum is one of the
few in england to experince ectopic
pregnancies. Because of this she has lost
both of her fallopian tubes. Best of
luck. Xx

Yeah, I agree with lauren_jay, my ectopic
was in october (lost a tube as well) and
the doctor basically told me that for
future pregnancies to get an ultrasound as
soon as I find out I am preggy. So I
think its safe to wait until you get a
positive pregnancy test then you can go to
your ob/gyn for an ultrasound.

I hope that everything turns out great for
you! As soon as you get a positive
result, then call your doctor to make
sure. Hopefully it is a healthy
pregnancy for you!
