First, I am sorry for your loss.
You should have a hysterosalpinogram done. It is basically an xray of your tubes and uterus to ensure they are patent. It is a little uncomfortable but worth it. good luck

Let me explain... A little over 2 weeks ago I had Lapriscopic surgery to remove an inch from my right tube and my embryo because it had burst. I hadn't had a "normal" pregnancy all along. I was at 6 or 7 weeks when it burst and all along I was bleeding. My doctor who did the surgery was really nice and she said I was bleeding because it wasn't a normal pregnancy. I will be very cautious next time and demand that they monitor me as soon as they know I am pregnant, because if...

Please try to stay positive. I too have gone through an ectopic pregnancy like you just 5 weeks ago. My husband and I do not have any children of our own and we were trying to conceive for 18 months before this. We just got the okay from our doctor to try again. we are very nervous but are optimistic. I have done a lot of research on this and although our chances of having another ectopic do increase, it is only by 10-15%. Your prognosis is good. Read some of the success stories in...

Hi I was just over 8 weeks. I have been out of the hospital for over a week now after surgery. They saved the right tube. i am 30 yrs old. It is one of the hardest things I have had to endure. I am wanting more children but so scared. I have one two yr old. There are many who are going through the same on here. I am taking this much harder than I ever thought I would. I am scared to concieve again. Even though I have a wonderful loving partner, it still feels lonely and scary.

Hello nhs
I'm so sorry for you loss. I know what you mean, I had an ectopic pregnancy and lost my baby on March 9th, and I still waking up and feeling sad knowing that my baby is not with me anymore. People says to me "be glad it happen early in your pregnancy, or it wasn't form yet' and I think those are the stupidest "confort coments" if you can call it like that. He or she was my baby, and will always be in my heart.
My daughter wrote something for our...

Hello, this is the first time i have written anything like this, i have not even had the courage to talk to anyone about my ectopic pregnancy, i was 6 weeks pregnant and had planned my babies whole life in the space of 2 weeks. We were so excited as had been trying for years, i am 26 so thought that it would never happen then woo hoo a positive test result.
I had cramps and went to the hospital to be told everything was fine, i feel so stupid cause i was talking to my little bean...

Hey there Wholistic,

I'm sorry to hear about your loss.. I too had an ectoptic pregnancy a year ago and still trying but to no avail.. I have a 2 year old son though and lost the second one through ectopic, hence the removal of my left tube. My right tube is clear.. got it checked last week. Still trying and I do hope we will be blessed with a child. With regards to Copper 7.. I'm sure you are aware about that being the cause of your ectopic and your loss.. Check out this...

I've read chances are 40% of becoming pregnant after ruptured ectopic. Is that true? My dr said the other tube will take over and move to whatever side is ovulaing? I haven't found much to support this, other than it can happen. I am becoming easily discouraged. We've been trying for 4 months now w/o success and each period is making it more frustrating. Each period gives me a little less hope that it's going to happen. How long did it take everyone else to...

Hi all, I am currently going through an eptopic pregnancy. I have been back and forward to the hospital for the past 5 weeks! This was my first pregnancy so me & my partner were very excited. After only knowing for less than a week I started to bleed. Light spots at first then nothing for a couple of days and then days later a little more blood. I went to A & E and they took some blood. From these results I was told my hcg levels were about normal for the stage of my pregnancy. I was...

Hey Kirst12,

Sorry it has been so long since I responded. I am going to be 39 in April. I know that there is a risk of EP with IVF, I was told that they would do lap to remove my right and remaining tube and then do IVF to eliminate the risk of an EP.
I had a crappy last week, it was the one year anniv of the beginning of our 1st loss. That was hard, I just keep thinking that I...

Hey Hels,

Sorry to hear it has not happened for you this month. Dont lose hope though - I know it is very hard! I know exactly what you are thinking I have also thought about IVF but it can also happen with IVF. Yes we are at an increased risk of it happening again 1 in 10 it seemingly happens again however 1 in 3 can actually concieve! Fingers crossed tho we will both be okay. How old are you? I worry about my age! Lets stay positive. We will keep each other going....

Hi Kirst12,
Yeah this is just so hard isn't it? And it is really scary if you feel you weren't looked after by the hospital. When I went in in Oct I hated that I was in the ER. I just wanted to be seen by ObGyn. I didn't feel like the ER doc had the experience. Luckily it all turned out OK (considering?!?!)
The "good" news is that if (heaven forbid) it ever happens again, you will know exactly what is going on!!
Please continue to try to take care of yourself and know...

Hi Hels,

Mine was treated as lap to remove the left tube. I was operated on 18th October. They said that my other tube is okay but it doesnt stop the worry. I have been going to a counsellor at work - I work at my local hospital. I found the counsellor good but really I feel I need to help myself in getting over the fear that I have. I have the fear of it happening again obviously but feel that I had diagnosed myself & was neglected in a way at the hospital.
I wish you...

Hi Kirst12,
I wish you courage my friend. I am just hell bent on another baby. If I have another ectopic I will push DH for IVF, but right now he is not into it. I had my left tube removed and hope my right is OK.
How was yours treated? Methotrexate or lap to remove tube. Did they see any damage? What date in Oct was yours. I had lap for my 2nd on Oct 5th.
Thanks for sharing and being an encouragement. I wish you good luck. Trust yourself, you will know when the time is...

Hi Helly,

Fingers crossed it will work out okay for you this time. It really helps to know what others are going through I think. Let me know how you get on. I still havent managed to build up the courage to try again hopefully in the next few months tho. Take care. Speak soon. x

Thanks kirst12,
I guess I haven't been looking at this page often enough. Thanks for your support. It is really tough.
We are trying again and I am impatiently waiting till next week to test. I just hate how anxious and out of control I feel just not knowing what will happen, whether I will ever have the baby I so dearly want. Oh well, live one day at a time. Good Luck and thanks again for replying.

I know exactly how you are feeling. I am very scared at the thought of trying again after my Ectopic in October. As you say it is all you see around you - pregnant women. I work in our local hospital so see so much of it. You think to yourself why can it not hapen for me? Its a horrible feeling. Hope I can like you have the courage to start trying again. x

I had an ep 5 months ago. I am scared to death to try again but cannot stand the thought of not ever having a child. Please share with me your experiences after ep. I would like to know if others have been successful in conceiving after ep.
