Pregnant when i got sterilised!!!!!!

[cr4zycow]

I was wondering if anyone else on the forum had this happen to them?? 4 weeks ago i got sterilised. Due to symptoms that i hadn't put together the nurse suggested i do a pregnancy test and low and behold it was positive!!!! It turns out i'm 7 weeks pregnant (5 weeks since conception) so i was a week pregnant when i got sterilised! Yesterday i started spotting so returned to the hospital. I was examined and told my cervix is still closed and there was no more blood but obviously i'm still very worried! I've heard of people getting sterilised and then ending up pregnant but never being pregnant when getting sterlised. I'm hoping and praying everything is going to be ok. I saw the baby yesterday before the bleeding and it was in the correct place with a good strong heartbeat.

shit..........didn't want to read and run but bluddy hell.

Did you ask if the baby will be ok?

No constuctive advice to give but will be watching this one

They have said it should be but obviously its been through loads already :/ The baby passed through like a day before they clipped my tubes

Oooh - hang on, the first two weeks of pregnancy are 'freebie weeks' arent they? as in, you are not actually pregnant, and there is no sort of baby or cell formation going on untill you are over two weeks pregnant.

So, maybe you did get pregnant after you were sterilised

Is this possible?

No i was pregnant before as the op was just over 4 weeks ago and without the 2 free weeks i'm 5 weeks and 2 days pregnant.

Ah, sorry then. Heartbeat is always a good sign though. Hope everything works out ok - I know a few people who have bled in early pregnancy and their babies are fine.

My aunt was steralised, but must have conceived just before the op. Her daughter is now 21 :)
