Ectopic pregnancy.. Help me

9 replies

Maharanaina · 13/09/2020 02:49

I am writing this with a heavy heart and tears in my eyes.. Have patience to read.. It can save you or help you.. I was 9 week pregnant and my first ultrasound was in 10 week 4 days. I got spotting on 9 week 4 days.. I told my hubby.. I read and found it is normal in first trimester. And my ultrasound was in next one week. But intuition told me to go n meet my doc..i went to meet my doc on same day.. I waited for one hour. I met and informed about spotting.. She said ok it is already 9 week let's hv ultrasound.. To my disappointment the baby was not in uterus but in tube 😥😥😥doc was surprised that how I didn't get pian till now, how it didn't burst out.. But I was normal.. She said me to hv immediate surgery.. I was scared.. Life was important or baby. I couldn't think anything.. We went to the surgeon who had to perform my surgery. He said I can't perform surgery without covid report.. And covid report would take 48 hours.. I may die too within that period. As he was a common friend doc he requested to do the test within 24 hours.. And the night was a horrible night for me.. Is it going to burst? M I going to die? Can I have baby or not? 😥😥. The next day I was admitted around 11 am and surgery was done at 1 pm.. My surgeon is known to be the best in town so I just wanted him to operate me. My right tube was removed? I inquired can it be repaired without remove? He said no the best decision is to remove cause we hv seen usually next pregnancy occures in that place only.. And it is life threatening.. I m happy that my life is saved but worried for many things. I just want you all to look into some poins
1-dont wait for 9 week for ultrasound go within 5 or 6 week. Heart beat doesn't matter placement matter
2- don't ignore little spotting too
3-can anyone help me or can tell the successful story of one tube pregnancy (I know many but I also want to know from u ppl)
4-pray for me that I can be pregnant again
5- my prayers for u all going to be mommies..
😥😥😥😥😥😥😥

I am sorry for your loss.

I had an ectopic pregnancy. We had been trying for years and had one round of IVF which failed and we could not afford any more.
I did not know I was pregnant.
I lost a tube and an ovary.
I resigned myself to not being able to have children and found other interests.
About a year later I got pregnant then I had another and another. Three babies in four years so miracles do happen OP

I've had 2 ectopics and have gone on to have 2 healthy babies since. Don't give up hope. Thanks

I'm sorry for your loss. It's a horrible thing to go through. The same thing happened to me but I'm reading your post breastfeeding my baby. Many women go on to have successful pregnancies after an ectopic and tube removal. Wishing you a speedy recovery

In my family... Collapsed in the street with a ruptured tube, rushed to hospital and critical for a while. Tube removed. Started trying for a baby once recovered - pregnant in six weeks and the baby goes to university in a fortnight. Second pregnancy only took a few weeks of trying too. Assumption the ectopic was caused by the mini pill. The mother was 29.

It's horrific physically and emotionally crippling and I really feel for you but it doesn't mean you can't get pregnant so please don't think you've lost your chance to have a baby.

My first pregnancy was ectopic. It's a really awful experience to be rushed into hospital like that, and going from being happily pregnant, to scared, to no longer pregnant and not sure if you will conceive again. (I also had a tube removed.)

I now have 2 dc. Both were conceived naturally and quickly and were straightforward pregnancies.

The hardest part for me was mentally - with both pregnancies I had early scans to check they weren't ectopic, but I still felt very anxious that something would go wrong, especially during the first trimester. So go easy on yourself, take some time to recover.

@LongBlobson I feel it hard.. I know I wd b going through the same anxiety once I get pregnant next... Give me strength to face this..
