I'm pregnant again 3 months after Ectopic and having very mild pain/feeling in the same tube the Ectopic was in. Does this mean i'm having another Ectopic pregnancy?

Was the tube removed, or did you have methotrexate?
I had my tube removed, and after getting that subsequent BFP, I was a mess, and symptom spotting for the 2 weeks til I got an early scan. I made everything into possible ectopic.
BUT, I now have a 5 yr old, and a subsequent 3 yr old.
You know the symptoms. Keep an eye on things. A&E if you get anything more than twinges. Can you self refer back to EPU for an early scan?
Fingers crossed.

I had the Methotrexate. I book a early scan straight away! Im just scared because Im sure Im going to have another ectopic. No spotting as of yet but last time ectopic didn't make its self known till about 6 wks and Im not quite there yet

I had an ectopic last November that just stopped growing and went away without surgery or methotrexate. Six months later, in May this year, I managed to get pregnant again in the same tube (I only have one functioning tube). I was convinced it was going to be another ectopic as I was getting strong twinges in my left side, but no other symptoms. Has an early scan at 5 weeks and all was fine! I'm now nearly 22 weeks. There's no rhyme or reason to how any of it works. Just because you've had an ectopic before, it doesn't mean another is written in stone. I know how scary it is though, and as addicted said, you know the symptoms, so just keep an eye out but try not to freak out.
Wishing you all the best and hope this is your good news. xx
