Answer 1

Don't let this put you off. You still have an excellent chance of having a healthy baby, especially because they saved your tube. My sister had 2 ectopic pregnancies, and had a little girl after that.

Answer 2

I'm sorry to hear about your situation. The same thing has happened to me, along with 2 miscarriages and my partner and myself are currently attending a clinic to assess the chances of future pregnancies, and the process of conceiving in the future.

To have an accurate analysis of your chance of conceiving and carrying full term I suggest you go to the doctors and get a referral.

However, you have only had one ectopic pregnancy with the tube in tack. There will be a small scar from the stitching of the tube but you have two fully 'working' tubes, so keep positive and like the lady above said you must not let this take over your life.

I know exactly where you are coming from and how you feel, believe me I do, but you must stay positive continue on with your life with optimism, and enjoy living a happy life with your partner and don't make this come between you both.

Good luck

Please don't be so down. You still have a good chance of becoming pregnant. Try to be optimistic and less stressed as stress does not help when trying to conceive.

When my mother fell pregnant with her first child, she got rubella and had to have an abortion. Then she carried full term fine and gave birth to my sister. Then through her 3rd pregnancy she was told it was ectopic. Again she had to have it removed. This left her with one ovary and the tube for this ovary was very badly damaged also. She was told she would prob not be able to have another baby. Then, like a little miracle, she became pregnant with me. I arrived on halloween day.A bit creepy as she wasn't supposed to be able to have another child.

So what i'm actually saying is that my mum went through all that and she still got pregnant again. And she didn't have any problems in between the ectopic pregnancy and giving birth to me either. When she fell pregnant with me it was the first time she fell pregnant after the ectopic pregnancy, and she carried full term straight away. So don't give. I think you have a perfectly good chance of conceiving again and carrying to full term.

Keep your head up, keep smiling and keep on trying, it will happen eventually x

Good luck! x

Answer 4

Try not to let it take over your life, I know that is easier said than done. The more worried and stressed you get the less likely you will conceive.
You have excellent chances of conceiving again and it is only a very small risk that it will be eptopic. Worrying about won't change the final outcome. So get on with enjoying life and I am sure it will not be long before you are holding a little bundle of joy in your arms. Good luck

Answer 5

No reason why you cant fall pregnant after your ordeal. Your doctor would have told you if there were any probs like scarring of the tubes etc. Even with scarring people still conceive & have perfectly normal pregnancies. I will let you know though that just because you got pregnant easily last time it may not happen again & it probably won't have anything to do with what's happened to you. Just keep trying, you know you & your husband can conceive. Best of luck.

I had an ectopic pregnancy 3years ago and i felt the same,but heres some hope for you i got my tube removed and i fell pregnant the first month that i started trying i didn't know how long it would take but theres always hope and iv now got a lovely wee girl,and I'm now trying for my 2nd.( lots and lots of luck to you)

Answer 7

You have to believe what your Dr. said. I mean DR.'s are usually very cautious about saying things like "everything (is) fine", so as not to give false hope or get peoples hopes up. They also don't want to take the chance of getting in trouble (or maybe even sued) for promising something that turns out to be untrue. So considering what your Doc said I'd be very happy, and optimistic about getting pregnant. I hope this helped to brighten your outlook. I know it's hard not to worry, but try keep positive (I think a positive mental outlook can really make a difference in a situation like yours). Anyway, good luck, I'll keep my fingers crossed.

PS Don't forget to post a baby question after the baby's born so you can tell us everything went well and if the baby's a he or a she (or maybe even one of each!).

Answer 8

i know that feeling. i already have a little girl with a complete wanker it only took once to fall pregnant i have know been with a wonderful man for 2 years and we are having real trouble concieving. Dont worry yourself about this will not help your chances. You will fall pregnant eventually just have fun trying and enjoy the time you have got together before the baby comes along goo luck sweetie x
