I have just got home from hospital after having an ectopic pregnancy and tube removed at 8 weeks pregnant.
It was my 2nd pregnancy. I have a 2 yr old DS.
It was a much wanted baby and I am obviously devastated at the loss but moreover I am devastated at what it might mean for our future as a family as we desperately want more children.
I have been told there is a 65% chance I will conceive naturally again. This feels horribly low to me.
I don't know why it happened and I have none of the traditional 'causes' of ectopic pregnancy.
I don't really know why I am posting - I suppose I am looking for hope, stories of people who have gone on to have babies after ectopics.
I feel so robbed, not only did they take my baby but i feel like they took my fertility and my dreams for the future. I know miscarriage is awful as well but at least your fertility isn't diminished. I just feel like less of a woman now.
