Ectopic pregnancy reassurance

Looking for some reassurance.

I’m 4 weeks 4 days pregnant.

I suddenly have a really achey shoulder, feels like it hurts internally where my arm joins my shoulder.
No other symptoms but obviously now worrying it’s ectopic.

I had a miscarriage in January and I’m so worried something is going to go wrong again.

I've been really worrier about ectopic (despite them being fairly rare) and every time my shoulder even slightly hurts my mind goes straight to this. Another lady on here said the shoulder tip pain is very strange and specific... it can't be mistaken. So I think you're OK.

It's shoulder tip, not shoulder joint.
And it's weird. It's also very unlikely that a fetus at 4w4d is big enough to be causing pain yet.

Suspect it's just one of those things.

Fingers crossed for a bean in the right place, and an easy pregnancy.

Thank you.

I do know I’m probably being ridiculous I’m just so worried this pregnancy won’t work out again.

I had an ectopic couple years ago. No typical symptoms at all great line progression, no pains but at 4 weeks I felt ‘aware’ of my fallopian tube and it was so unusual and unnerving I went to the EPU and they could see the ectopic clearly. I had treatment 48 hrs later (methotrexate)

Could you describe the feelint? I had kinda like ovulation cramps on left side yesterday and now I'm worried!
